Polokwane - Set on the banks of the Mluwati River, in the heart of a 10 000ha private concession in the Kruger National Park, the six-thatched suites of Hoyo Hoyo Safari Lodge offer privacy and relaxation.
Take a leisurely shower in the open or melt into your king-size bed for an afternoon siesta. This experience is about relaxing on your terms.
The cosy main area is centred around a sunken fire pit, and circular timber decks, which offer views of the waterhole and surrounding plains.
The lounge and dining rooms echo the circular shapes. The sparkling swimming pool promises a refreshing dip while providing the opportunity to enjoy the varied wildlife, which come to the river for a cooling drink.
After an evening’s safari, warm yourself around the open-air fire and enjoy a three-course dinner under the stars.
Cuisine is of a world-class standard served with a delicate balance of traditional African and Western cuisine.
Excellent wine and good conversation flow while you listen to the sounds of the bush coming alive at night.
