Great Family Stay!
We loved our stay at Pezulu! The staff is incredible and the atmosphere is truly unique. Accommodations are a little rustic but comfortable, and this is part of the allure. Food was excellent. Eating dinner outside fireside was great experience along with drinks in the bar at night with other guests. Highly recommended!

Pezulu Tree House Lodge was a great experience. We want to thank Mikayla for helping us plan this trip, Joe for great driving and showing us around Kruger, Charlotte for managing everything very well, and a special shout-out to Nathan who was incredibly accommodating of our vegetarian diet and created some great dishes for us. Thanks for everything to the whole Pezulu team for a great trip!!

The dream house was fascinating. We were able to sleep outside under the stars and when we woke up we were able to see girraffes pretty close! Baobab planting was a nice experience and Joe, our guide was extremely friendly and helpful! The food was very nice too.

Family Vacation
A very enjoyable night stop. Lindy took great care of all of us and nothing was too much of a problem. Highly recommend a bush walk with Mike as he’s very knowledgeable and the kids are still talking about it. Treehouse was comfortable and great fun to stay in. Delicious food was a bonus.

Fantastic Junior Rangers Program
Pezulu is a mix between a rustic bush camp and a backpackers, so don't expect a luxury lodge. Rooms are comfortable, although an airconditioning unit and a bar fridge in the rooms would be great. In the middle of summer it would very uncomfortable without an airconditioning unit in the rooms. The food is basic but tasty and well prepared. The local area in which Pezulu is situated hasn't got much to offer in terms of game, although there is much to do near by making it a great base to work from. A special mention is needed for the junior rangers program they present. Mike, the resident ranger, did an exceptional job of spending close to 3 hours with the kids, stalking Zebra, looking at ants and finding roots containing water and lots more. This was probably the best part of our whole trip. Once again thank you Mike for all your effort and the exceptional way you worked with the kids. Overall our stay at Pezulu was relaxing and comfortable.

Amazing lodge!
The sunset was beautiful from the balcony and we all slept well during the night. We enjoyed seeing the animals in the reserve of the lodge (giraffes, elephants, ostriches, impalas, etc.) Thank you very much Pezulu staff!

Amazingly unique treehouse experience!
My aunt and I spent one night at Pezulu and really enjoyed the experience! Our treehouse was lovely and we'll equipped with modern comforts we wouldn't have expected (two bathrooms, cool outdoor shower, and great lighting). Breakfast and dinner were very nice, and the bar area was super cute. Only downside is wifi does not extend to the rooms and the location is about 1hr from Kruger. Other than that, great place to disconnect and we really enjoyed visiting the nearby Hoedspruit Endangered Species Centre (great recommendation by Pezulu staff!).

Nothing but a disappointment
I had such high hopes for Pezulu Treehouse Lodge; I thought it was going to be the highlight of our trip to South Africa. However that was definitely not the case. I wanted to surprise my husband with by sleeping under the stars on the last night of our trip. Unfortunately due to a booking error, that did not happen. I booked a specific room and when I got there it was not available and we were given a (less nice) different room. They apologized, but this is unacceptable. Booking issues aside, this place was not my style. It's cheesy and dated. There are so many awesome places to stay in and around Kruger National Park. Don't waste your time here.

Emplacement ideal aux abords du kruger
Hebergement fantastique, debut d'un sejour plus long dans le kruger, 1ere nuit avant d'entrer dans le parc. Bon repas. Accueil sympathique, diner autour du feu, ambiance de brousse. Petit dejeuner sympa. Personnel attentionné. La route en sable est assez longue pour arriver, on ne sattendait pas a ce que ce soit si loin de l'axe principal, mais finalement c'était tres bien, ca a fait une sorte de mini safari avant notre vrai safari dans le kruger Bel endroit, a faire pour commencer a deconnecter

Unico e maravilhoso
What a spectacular place. Undoubtedly the best option in the reserves next to Krugger Park. A chalet with everything you need. Many windows with total contact with nature. They offer night safaris with great budget. Excellent breakfast and assembled for each guest at their time. Excelete meals. The hosts are very friendly and the staff helpful. Giraffes passed by our window, as well as monkeys and various animals. Without a doubt recommend it and we will be back. Que lugar espetacular. Sem duvida a melhor opção nas resrevas proximas ao Krugger Park. Um chalé com tudo o que é preciso. Muitas janelas com contato total com a natureza. Oferecem safars noturnos com oreço otimo. Cafe da manha excelente e montado para cada hospede ao seu tempo. Refeições exceletes. Os anfitriões são muito simpaticos e a equipe atenciosa. Girafas passaram em nossa janela , além de macacos e varios animais. Sem duvida recomendo e vamos voltar.

Erro do Staff pode botar toda experiência em risco
Tivemos duas experiências radicalmente diferentes durante a mesma estadia. Ao chegarmos no hotel nos pediram para aguardar um pouco pois haviam colocado outras pessoas em nossa casa da árvore (tinhamos reservado a mais ampla, confortável e isolada do Lodge) por engano, no entanto esse um pouco viraram horas e chegou com a informação que a família que estava erroneamente instalada na casa de árvore (que NÓS HAVÍAMOS PAGO) simplesmente disseram que não iriam sair da mesma. O que a equipe do hotel fez? Ao invés de obrigar a saída, tendo em vista que eles haviam reservado e pago um quarto inferior, quem acabou ficando neste quarto fomos nós. Quando ressalto inferior querer frisar que é uma experiência RADICALMENTE diferente, recomendo e sugiro muito cuidado ao escolher o quarto/casa de sua estadia aqui. Depois que a família que simplesmente tomou o nosso quarto foi embora e o hotel nos permitiu entrar na casa a árvore que havíamos pago, a experiência que tivemos foi exatamente como tinhamos imaginado que seria desde o começo. Um quarto amplo, claro, confortável, com macacos, zebra, avestruz e girrafas ao nosso redor (no quarto anterior não tivemos contato com nenhum desses animais por ser menos isolado). Esse é um lodge de experiência,ñ um hotel comum, saímos do Brasil para vivenciar esta experiência que foi muito prejudicada nessa situação, levamos nosso filho autista pra vivenciar isso e a falta de habilidade da equipe em corrigir seu erro prejudicou bastante nosso passeio
