Traveller reviews
Patrick Raymond “Lifetime memories! Thanks, Duncan!!”
05 Apr 2025
I genuinely cannot rate the Abelana River Lodge highly enough. We spent a weekend there for our first ever family safari (two adults, one eight year old boy) and this lodge exceeded every expectation. The staff, the food, the location, everything was superb! The location is incredible with the lodge and rooms nestled beside a river. We regularly saw elephants and monkeys as we sat for our meals. Note that the lodge is about a 1.5 hour drive from Hoedspruit Airport. The decor is amazing. It does not jar with the surroundings but instead it complements the nature with the indoor-outdoor setting. The food was ridiculously good. We felt like we were having Michelin star food for every meal. It really was that good. Compliments to the kitchen team! Last but by no means least, we wanted to say a special thank you to our game ranger, Duncan. He made the entire trip so special. He brought us close (and safely) to the animals and you can tell that he really knows his stuff. Our twice daily safari trips with him were fantastic and he made it his mission to get us to see the animals. He fully succeeded in that mission and we are totally grateful! THANK YOU DUNCAN!!!

A great choice of breakfast items to choose from from cereals, continental meats, fruit, yogurt & hot breakfasts too. Staff cleaned room every day and prepared room for night time by providing fresh water and making sure lights were on, blinds were down and mosquito net was surrounding the bed We had the most amazing game drives with the best guide, Adi, who was so caring and knowledgeable and answered all our questions on all the animals interestingly and thoroughly - and there were many!

Monia “Exceptional Stay at Abelana Hotel ! safari, accomodation, food and staff : everything was a 10/10”

Our stay at the Abelana Hotel in South Africa was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcomed and catered to our every need with genuine warmth and attentiveness. The highlight of our stay was the safari experience. Our guide, Adi, was absolutely fantastic. Her deep knowledge of the wildlife and her passion for animals were evident throughout the safaris. She had an incredible ability to spot even the most elusive creatures and shared fascinating insights about their behavior and habitat. The most unforgettable moment of our trip was that We had the rare opportunity to witness and participate in a lioness collaring operation conducted by the veterinary team. Being able to touch a lioness as her collar was changed was a surreal and awe-inspiring experience. The culinary experience at the hotel was outstanding. Each meal was a delight, with a variety of delicious dishes that showcased the best of local and international cuisine. Whether it was breakfast, lunch, or dinner, every dish was prepared with great care and flavor. One of the aspects that truly impressed us was the housekeeping service, which was done twice a day. The attention to detail was impeccable, ensuring that our room was always in perfect condition, allowing us to fully relax and enjoy our time. Overall, our stay at Abelana Hotel was an incredible adventure filled with luxury, comfort, and unforgettable moments. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking to explore the beauty of South Africa in an exceptional setting.
