Our family from Canada visited after being away for ten years. We were fortunate to find self-catering accommodation at Sudwala Lodge and spend a midweek (5 days) at the Resort. On our arrival, friendly and very helpful staff booked us in and invited us to dinner at the pool area; a real South African barbecue with side dishes supplied by the onsite Restaurant. We shared an excellent evening with all the other guests under a starlit sky. Our guests enjoyed their stay very much and hinted about an annual visit. 1braampelser June 2023
We had such a good time at Sudwala Lodge. I would recommend it to anybody. It is a great breakaway from city life, yet close enough for any necessities. Friendly staff and a clean Resort. We had no issues with power failures as their generator was working clockwork. emile975 May 2023
We took a weekend break for our 27th anniversary. Wow - what an experience! We enjoyed every moment at the Resort. Friendly staff, beautiful surroundings, it’s close to nature, and we even visited the Sudwala Caves. It is most definitely a place for couples, family, and friends. So much to do, wish we had more time. Sonjascholtz May 2023
Friendly staff, great views, and well-equipped chalets (with a generator for loadshedding times). Our family had a lovely stay and we will definitely return in the future! The Sudwala Caves and the Ziplining are also great places to visit while staying at Sudwala Lodge. Sightsee10443352877 May 2023
All the staff was warm and extremely friendly. Family-oriented Resort with lots to do. Well-maintained Resort and facilities. The location is perfect and a close drive to nearby sightseeing activities and adventures. Robertsstephenh April 2023
If you want to experience clean, fresh air in nature with all the different sounds of the birds, see a little impala now and then, and enjoy the noise of water flowing in the background, this is definitely the place to visit! Hester Van Der Merwe April 2023
I spent a very pleasant week at Sudwala. There was much to see, do and experience. I recommend touring the Caves nearby. The staff always treated me well. I enjoyed all the excursions. I was traveling alone and I felt cared for by the staff Gerald N November 2022
This place is so amazing! The staff is friendly, especially the recreational staff. They have a lot of games and fun things to do each day. The rooms are nice and offer amazing relaxing views. The location is perfect as you have so many things to do within an hour. Some are even walkable, like the caves, the dinosaur park, and the butterfly garden. The food at the Restaurant was amazing, as well. This place offers a night walk that ends with a bonfire and roasted marshmallows which is fun for the whole family. It is also a short day trip from Kruger National Park. You can also see many animals on the property. We saw Zebra and kudu right outside the gate, as well as baboons and monkeys from our room. The location is very safe with multiple levels of security. I felt safe walking alone at night. I do not understand why it isn’t always sold out. It is truly underrated for what you get! Wesley S November 2022

Nature at its best. Lots of entertainment venues around the area. Molefe Masilo July 2022
It's a home-away-from-home. Very exciting if you come with a group of family members to play different games. It's a great place to regain positive energy. A place for family gatherings and friends' gateways. Sherpa27087876788 July 2022
Best Holiday Vacation Ever. Sudwala Caves, Zipline, Dinosaur Park, Restaurant, Mankelekele Mountain, the Sudwala River, and more in the same Lodge. The BEST! Dimakatso Selota July 2022

Our cycling weekend at Mankele Bike Park turned out to be a great holiday, thanks to Sudwala Lodge, where we could swim, go for walks, and dine at the restaurant. They really spoilt us as they made a boma fire for us, we had a lovely braai by the river, they set the tables nicely.....everyone was extremely helpful, friendly and went out of their way to accommodate our needs and wishes.

Gosh… This place is BEAUTIFUL, the staff is friendly, the activities were so much fun, everything was so amazing; I did not want to go back home. The environment is so peaceful, so soothing. I highly recommend. Dineo Mokau February 2022
We spent a very happy week at Sudwala Lodge, with the beautiful tranquil mountains as a backdrop. So much for the children (5 and 1) to do. Seven swimming pools, jungle gyms, trampolines, mini-golf, jumping castles; the Butterfly Effect nature garden being an absolute highlight and of course the Caves and the Dinosaur Park. Also a short trip to visit the chimpanzees at Chimp Eden on the other side of Nelspruit. A really lovely holiday! Anon December 2021
The Resort is not too far from Mpumalanga's most known attractions, and they'll provide a map of how you can access them. Activities are great and the pool is refreshing. I have to comment on the cleanliness and friendliness of the staff. I definitely recommend this to anyone who'd like to explore Mpumalanga. Nonhlanhla November 2021
Central to all surrounding attractions if you don't mind the drive – it's part of the fun. Cool units with all the amenities needed to take a break in the wild. A home-away-from-home. Friendly staff, well maintained grounds and an open, yet private, experience guaranteed. Anon November 2021
The place is wonderful and peaceful; great for family outing or as a couple. The service of the staff was excellent; not forgetting the sudwala caves - exciting experience. Walter Slooja July 2021

We stayed there for 4 nights. The Resort is very good; we enjoyed it a lot. Chalets are very good with all the amenities you need, which include a kitchen, couches, a TV, patio with chairs, air-con and ample parking. They also have a Games Room and Swimming Pools. Also, a night walk with stars, two different Hiking Trails for 4 and 7 km. Also, near Sudwala Caves, which is also an attraction. Rakesh Jain June 2021
Very beautiful, friendly staff and good food. They also have all the necessary groceries at their shop. Also, have a petrol station on site. The dinosaur park needs some attention. The cave was also a wonderful experience. Thank you to everyone at Sudwala Lodge. Christo “Murray” Lubbe June 2021
Overall, we have had a great time staying at the Lodge. Very nice activities for the kids and lots of other activities and other things to do outside from the Lodge. Great experience and had a wonderful week. Take away food was great especially your Breakfast Burger and Pizzas. 907heidi May 2021

We had an amazing week; relaxing and loads of fun! The kids practically lived in the Pools, Sudwala Caves around the corner, and the hiking was great fun. The surrounding areas are scenic and well-worth the visit. There are a number of hidden gems in the area. Can’t wait to come back! Getaway31470228288 January 2021
