Reviewer Type: Couple

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: The staff made the difference in our stay. From the care preparing our breakfest to go for the safari to the warm welcome of Jeffrey, everything was perfect. The property has lots animals such as hippos, zebras and giraffes and it was amazing seing them so close. The dinners were spetacular! They made a south african barbecue in a beautiful set up by the fire place (even with the rain). If I ever come back to kruger, I would definetly stay at Phelwana.
