Situated on the southern border of the world-famous Kruger National Park, this peaceful wildlife estate allows animals to roam freely through the streets and gardens it’s common to see zebra, giraffe, kudu, warthogs, impala, and many more right outside your door. The area is quiet, relaxed, and perfect for guests looking to escape city life and reconnect with nature. There are no fences between properties, creating an authentic bush experience while still enjoying the safety and convenience of a well-established holiday village. Marloth Park offers a variety of local amenities including small shops, restaurants, take-away spots, fuel stations, and activity centres. Guests can enjoy river walks along the Crocodile River (where you can often spot elephants, hippos, and buffalo on the Kruger side), scenic viewpoints, picnic areas, and cycling or walking routes through the bush. One of the biggest highlights is the atmosphere peaceful mornings with birdsong, afternoons spent watching wildlife wander past, and evenings under star-filled skies with the sounds of nature all around you.
