The owner and staff were so nice. Their care and hospitality went above and beyond. The meals were exemplary, I loved every dinner we had. Everyone sat at one large table, very social and just made for a nice evening.

Needles is an excellent lodge in every way - helpful, friendly staff and the owners make a point of meeting everyone and enjoy the evening meal with all guests. Marloth Park is a great venue just outside the Kruger NP Gate and there are walks and hides opposite the Park with no worry about lions or dangerous animals. Birding is very good from hides and most stock animals walk freely among the area. .

A magical stay – pure bush bliss! 🌿✨ From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home. The setting is just stunning – antelopes grazing all around and even mongoose passing by. Our room was huge, beautifully comfortable with a perfect bed, AC, fan, tea & coffee facilities and the sweetest touch: freshly baked cookies waiting for us. The terrace opened straight into the bush – absolute magic! Breakfast and dinner were a highlight every day – delicious, cooked with love, and shared in a warm family-style atmosphere. Honestly, if 10 stars existed, they would deserve them all. The staff were extraordinary – so welcoming, kind, and full of the best tips for exploring the area. A special recommendation: don’t miss the full-day safari into southern Kruger with them. We went from 5:00 to 19:00 and saw everything – truly unforgettable. We left with full hearts and beautiful memories. This place is beyond special – highly, highly recommended! ❤️
