It was peaceful and quiet, what we really needed. The view was spectacular especially in the evening.

This was the best start on our South African trip that we could have imagined. We enjoyed the Panorama route and walking trails and had an amazing safari. Our stay at Nabana Lodge was perfect and especially the staff was very friendly. Thandeka gave us a lot of great advice and surprised us with nice little things everyday. Thank you so much

From the time I booked to the day we checked out, we reeived the best service.The cleanliness of the rooms and the place is excellent, when we opened our room, all the sheets and bedding were white and we knew that it would be a problem because our little 2 year old boy is a bit of a messy one, we tried keeping it clean but failed, he had nose bleeds, dirty feet and messing with his food but everytime we came from from our outing, the place would be spotless and the sheets white as snow again. They even washed my son's night bottles, I was amazed by their hospitality and great service, Oh and their restaurant, the food potions wow wow wow, we would order food for supper and still left some for breakfast and did I mention that the taste, GREAT. I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone. PLUS IT IS VERY AFFORDABL

Beautifull view from rooms, Nice gardens, owners are extremelly receptive. Restaurant ia a great option in the área, specially becouse everything closes in the city between 18/19. Hotel ia really close to one of kruger entrances

Estancia muy agradable en un hotel que da la sensación de estar muy en contacto con la naturaleza. Todo el personal fue muy servicial y agradable. Muy recomendable para hacer una parada tranquila desde Johannesburgo al parque Kruger

Nabana Lodge is a nice little find. It’s not a modern hotel but the place is great to stay. The accommodation is in little accommodation huts with a fan but good enough to keep cool.
The gardens is super with great views over the valley and Banana plantations. They have a security guard at night, also a pub and restaurant where the food is delicious. It’s a couple of miles from the centre of Hazyview but make no mistake, it’s a great place to stay with good hosts and staff to ensure u enjoy your time here

It is absolutly beautiful to stay at Nabana Lodge. The mornings are filled with the songs of hundereds of birds. This is a place where you can just sit and relax and forget about the world outside the gates

This is one of the best experiences I have ever had in Mpumalanga. The hospitality at Nabana Lodge was magnificent, all well arranged and suited to our needs. Our hostess was very friendly and welcoming. we enjoyed staying at Nabana Lodge and already recommended it to our friends. I will definately come back again.
Thanks for the experience!

I recently visited at this lodge over the long weekend in April as a young weekend away with my girlfriend.

Welcome
- We were tired on arrival but the receptionist and management made the place feel like home. The management even advised us on places to visit and which routes to take
General enquiries
-There’s a number we used to call when we had problems and they always came back to us within a split seconds

Room
- Clean room with almost everything. Maybe if you guys can consider having a small bar fridge.

Thyme restaurant
- the food was very proper and affordable even. Best meal was the Eisburn (sp), I can still drive all the way for this meal 😂😂

My girlfriend loved some relish we were having at Thyme restaurant and even asked to take some home. The manager gave it to us. 4 days later it’s already finished ☹️

Generally the place is less than 20 drive to Kruger National Park (Phambeni & Numbi Gate ). Also at a center to the panaroma route.
This has been a lovely stay

I stay regularly at Nabanana Lodge for business whilst working on a project in Bushbuckridge. The accommodation is comfortable, well maintained and serviced and meets my needs. The team are very helpful, for example putting a small camping fridge in my room on the one visit at my request. The food served at the Thyme restaurant at the Lodge is of a good quality and at good prices. There is also flexibility in terms of the menu. The service is personal and friendly. I'll be going back!

Beautiful place for holidays.
We really enjoyed our stay at the Nabana Lodge. The people there are really friendly, welcoming and helping. The garden is beautiful, the room really nice, clean and comfortable. The food in the restaurant is really delicious. Nabana Lodge is also really close to the Kruger and the Panorama Route. Definitely worth a stay!

Great Food & Good company "

My boyfriend and I have been to Nabana Lodge twice this year for lunch and loved both our experiences. The burgers & battered hake are fantastic and the newly added prawns surprised us completely. Paul is extremely friendly and very patient especially when it comes to fishing information, very knowledgeable. Thanks guys! Keep it up..

Nick Visser

Gauteng

The friendliness of Magda the owner who sorted out a couple of small problems with efficiency and grace and when we arrived at our next destination ( Kruger Park) and found we had forgotten a lap top helped us and messaged later to see if all was well. The pub restaurant was cozy on an extremely rainy night and the food was just what we needed. The room was very comfortable and the water hot. I wish we had seen it in nicer weather as it seemed to have all we needed. The nighttime chorus of crickets and frogs was great after coming from the city.

Rosemary Sims

Nabana Lodge is a beautiful, relaxing place and its in the centre of visiting places like Kruger National Park, God's Window, Potholes, Three Rondawels. beautiful place to be with family and the owner is very friendly and the meals are freshly prepared, visiting again very soon.

What a view to wake up to. Perfectly central for Mpumalanga exploration. Family friendly environment and for the sport lover that is worried they are too far from their DSTV decoder for the big game, there is always the lodge bar with a big screen and Thyme Restaurant for a bite.

Kevin Barnes

Très bel accueil , charmante hotesse ...Et des conseils avisés qui nous ont permis par exemple de découvrir le Boskombuis et ses spécialités Sudafricaines dans un lieu improbable et magique. La restauration au Nabana est également délicieuse. Un très bon souvenir. Merçi Nabana.

Jean Roche

Awesome place, stayed over night there 3 times now.. We use it as a central point to do a stop over on our trips. Always very accommodating and friendly. Food is good, company is good. Its like a home from home.

"Great break away"

We had a quick break away and Nabana was perfect. They did a lot of extras to make our stay comfortable. The food was very good. We will definitely visit them again. It is close to the Kruger National Park and lots of activities in the area to enjoy.

"Nabana Lodge. . . .well done in all ways.Was welcomed proffesionally and friendly. Good quality food."

well done in all ways.Was welcomed proffesionally and friendly. Good quality food. Rooms was neat and clean and well maintained. The view was the cherry on the cake after a long work day. Easy accessible from Hazyview and Whiteriver. I will surely return any time. The outside area . . . Wooden deck and swimming pool was clean and neat as well. Owners that still take pride in what they do and making sure that every customer is treated well and looked after.

Wow!!! What an amazing place. The people are awesome. This is really the lodge to choose if you need to relax and rest. Most important to eat at Thyme Restaurant on site.

Hannes Swanepoel

A very beautiful place. People are very nice and the stay is very relaxing. It is a pity we are here for only one day. The restaurant is cosy and food is really good - whether for breakfast or dinner. Hope to come back one day

Amin & Sandrine

Belgium


I stayed at this beautiful, scenic and extremely hospitable place where i felt at home immediately. The rooms are very neat and comfortable which will make anybody's stay comfortable and relaxing. The food is very well prepared like your home style cooking with lots of love and it is very cost effective. No way going to any steak ranch and receive a well prepared steak for well under R100. Paul is an amazing host/bartender and know his sport. You wont find a stay for value of money anywhere in South Africa. You are doing a great job guys.

Alex Dalton

We really enjoyed staying at Nabana Lodge. The room was great, had everything we needed. The lodge itself has a big garden area which we ended up playing in every afternoon with our child. Food in Wild Thyme was really good. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to visit again.

Excellent value for money and service. Close to Hazyview town and Numbi Kruger Gate. Beautiful view of the banana plantation. Customer service is exceptional and the food from restaurant is good and well priced.

My brother, my dad and I travelled to Nabana lodge from Durban. We did in the trip in 1 day which meant us being in the road for +-10hours. The people at Nabana were friendly and helpful, they even messaged me to check how our drive was going. We informed them we were going to be arriving late and they were more than happy to stay up and wait for us. Once we arrived, they were very organized. We paid our outstanding amount and were then given a map to the area as well as booklets to activities we may be interested in. The staff assisted as to how we should plan our activities. The rooms were very clean, beds extremely comfortable and the morning view was lovely. We ate at the restaurant there on our last night and the food was fantastic. The morning we left we headed to Kruger park and were on the road by 6am. Nabana allowed us to leave the keys in the room which made things hassle free for us. They way the gate to the accommodation is handled is absolutely brilliant. I'll definitely recommend this place for anyone to stay at.

Gary

Magda was very friendly and she helped us where she could. Rooms are basic but clean. Not far from centre Hazyview and Kruger park. Very kind people Who work over there. That's really the South African spirit!

Awesome view and private good location close to Hazyview town and only 24 km drive away from Kruger National Parks - Numbi and Phabeni gates.”

Wilma Groenewald

Gauteng

A family trip to the Mpumalanga lowveld. What better location to launch your adventures in Hazyview and more specifically Nabana lodge. Centrally located to get you to Kruger National Park and drive on your own seeing nature, or going the panorama route, which will take you to God's Window, The Pilgrim's rest. It's outstanding and incredible and remarkable. Go see for yourself, launching from Nabana lodge.

Jacob Mujokoro

Johannesburg

My daughter and I decided on a last minute trip away and were lucky enough to have found Nabana lodge. The staff and management were very friendly and the accommodation was clean and well maintained. We had a number of meals at the Lodge and the quality and quantity of the food was exceptional. They make the best omelettes I've ever tasted:-) the situation was central to most sights and not far from gates to the Kruger Park. I would definitely go back again for another holiday and would recommend the Lodge to friends and Family.

Michaela Phillips

The place is lovely and loved the banana filed view. Customer service was also excellent and so was the hospitality. I would recommend this place to anyone visiting Nelspruit be it for pleasure or business.

Very clean rooms, Good views over the surrounding countryside. Good bar and food which attracts locals as well as visitors. Close to Hazyview which is a good location for Safari visits to Kruger Park.

Peter Bellerby

Our stay at Nabana was perfect. We have done Kruger safari multiple times and visited Swaziland from Nabana.Staff was more than helpful. They not only supported us with our stay in the lodge, but also provided detailed suggestions on things to do around the area. The food at the restaurant was also very delicious.

Kagan Kaya

Istanbul - Turkey

Nabana lodge is a gem. Not only beautiful and well kept, but also close to all main attractions in the area (including Kruger, Induna adventures and many others). The land lady, Magda, is very nice and helpful for things that go beyond the place (including lending me her personal computer). The restaurant is a good one to eat both breakfast and dinner.

We enjoyed our stay. We will do it again when the opportunity arises. The place is quiet decent and clean. It was value for money. I can recommend it to anyone and it's also ideal due to its proximity to the Kruger National park and all the other tourist attractions in the lowveld

Mekiah Mugonda

Johannesburg

What a nice place. You feel right at home. Its not an all luxurious place, but this is the place where you want to go when you want to get away from it all and still feel Home away from home. I would definitely recommend paying the extra few rand for the Breakfast and Dinner included. They have a small pub/Restaurant where I ordered dinner every night and had a beer or two. There is a few locals that you can expect to be there every now and then and they always make you feel welcome, they treat you as if they have met you before and know you for years already. The Barman have never ending good stories to tell and jokes to make and is on a ball with the service, coming in there he already have your favorite drink ready to be served. I am not normally the type of guy that will sit in the Bar and enjoy a beer or two but these guys make you feel so welcome that you want to sit there and have a good chat. I cant wait for my next business trip over there. Me and my Wife is actually planing to visit there over our first available long weekend.

Nabana Lodge, nahe Hazeyview, liegt in unmittelbarer Nähe des Krüger Nationalparks der Eingangstore Numbi und Phabeni. Mitten in Bananenplantagen eingebettet genieest du den Blick von deinem Zimmer mit unvergesslichen Impressionen in Richtung Osten.
Nabana Lodge, eine Eigentümer geführte 3 Sterne Lodge liegt nahe dem Ort Hazeyview. Erkunde von hier die Panorama Route, den Kruger National Park und erlebe weitere Abenteuer. Von Bananenplantagen umgeben ist Nabana Lodge ein stiller Rückzugsort mit wundervollen Ausblicken auf die östlich abfallenden Niederungen.
Was ursprünglich als eine Farm anfing hat sich langsam in ein Gastronomiegewerbe erweitert.
Die 8 Zimmer der Nabana Lodge sind stilvoll eingerichtet und die Sonnenaufgänge traumhaft schön. Geniesse eine Abkühlung im Schwimmbad und einen Sundowner auf der Terasse.

Das Restaurant bietet seinen Gästen ein a la Carte Menu und eine Auswahl an südafrikanischen Bieren und Weinen an.

Die Nabana Lodge bietet ein absolut gutes Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis

What a pleasant experience! All aspects of the booking administration process was quite impressive. I rate Magda's professional service amongst the best that I have come across. And Paul's hospitality should also be mentioned. Thanx you guys, you'll definitely see us again

Annelie

A lovely clean and neat lodge. Lovely food. A bit small, I would have liked to have more sitting space, had no sitting room, I also find a small fridge is also necessary and it didn't have one, It also didn't have a counter (kitchen top) to work on. Great for a backpacker. Friendly people, nice view.

As a business traveller I started staying at Nabana Lodge once a month since last year August.
Nabana was the answer to finding suitable accommodation in Hazyview. Visit, and you will agree. It's a quiet place with lovely management who will help you with everything you need to know. They are helpful. Its one of the best Lodges and very affordable.

Vriendelijk ontvangen!
De kamer was netjes en had een prachtig uitZicht.
Om 5:15 de wekker gezet (tip van de eigenaar) om een zonsopkomst te kijken! Super.
We hadden ontbijt erbij en dat was prima verzorgd. Ook het avond eten was goed.

I found the reception warm and welcoming. You can sit on the terrace and enjoy peaceful, calm and beautiful environment. And if you feel like company, join the crowd in the pub. The rooms are clean, with crisp white bedding. The view when you walk out of your room in the morning is nothing short of breath-taking. The staff is friendly and helpful.

Charlotte Page

A warm welcome to a very nice lodge. We stayed three nights and enjoyed it very much. A good starting point for the Panorama Route and Kruger National Park.

Piet and Elly

Netherlands

We kozen de locatie omdat die ideaal gelegen is om van daaruit de panorama route te bezoeken.
Niet superluxueus maar wel dik in orde. Supervriendelijke eigenaars die ook hun restaurant langer openhielden omdat we later dan voorzien arriveerden.
Paul, de zoon van de eigenares en barman, geeft je heel uitgebreid en graag alle advies.
Het eten is er lekker en de bar is een goede plaats om te vertoeven en ervaringen met anderen uit de wisselen.

Geert Debruyne

Kleinschalige lodge met huisjes gelegen op een prachtig locatie. Zonsopgang om 5.15u mag je daar niet missen!! Huisjes zijn netjes ingericht. Heerlijk gegeten. Wij waren van plan om vanuit daar de gehele panoramaroute te rijden om vervolgens aan 't einde van de dag aan te komen in het Krugerpark. Wil je echt rustig genieten van al 't moois langs de panoramaroute trek daar dan twee dagen voor uit.

This is the perfect place to use as a base if you are touring Mpumalanga. You can do day excursions to just about anywhere in the surrounds from there. There is an excellent restaurant on the premises that serves amazing food. The owner Magda is very friendly and will assist you with anything. A very good value for money option.

We stayed at Nabana Lodge for 3 nights over new year. The food was amazing. The hosts in the restaurant Paul and Liesl were great company and went out of their way to accommodate us. Only thing missing was a personal fridge. Thanks Paul for offered to store our goods in the restaurant fridge/freezer. We had a great time there relaxing in the pool, lovely food and a exceptional trip to the Kruger national park. We will definitely go back there again someday.

Had an overnight stay that was very nice. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and Magda is so friendly and welcoming. We left our wallet behind, so we called Magda and she had it waiting for us when we returned. Not many places would be so honest about that, so we are very thankful! Good value for money.

Attie Nel - Cashbuild

We have stayed beautiful 5 days at Nabana. The view from the mountain tops is simply breathtaking! Since all bungalows are aligned eastward, it is possible to enjoy watching the sunrise from the bed. The lodge is well situated between the Kruger park and the panorama road, so it is possible to visit all local tourist attractions in day-trips

Matyas Mehn

The perfect location. Not too far from the Kruger Park entrance. Felt very safe and secure. Very clean accommodation. All home cooked and plentiful food. Everyone we met were so friendly. A family run place which made it perfect for us. Well stocked bar. The owners couldn't have done more for us.

Gary and Sharon Aumais

Fantastic Service and food
We were a group of bikers from Johannesburg. Magda made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The rooms are clean and comfortable, dinner and breakfast was first class. We shall definitely return as the lodge is very well situated for rides/drives to all the attractions in the area.

Steve

Johannesburg

We stayed one relaxing night at Nabana on our way into Kruger Park. The property is nicely landscaped and set up so that the chalets are quiet and set apart from the main lodge and restaurant a bit. We also enjoyed a pleasant dinner on the deck of the restaurant which was beautifully lit up at night. Probably the highlight for my husband and I was Max the dog and his three companions, Gunner, JC, and Fluffy. They really make you feel a part of the family by being ready for a game of fetch when you say the word! However for any that would rather not play with animals, note that we sought out their friendship, they did not bother us. There is also a pretty swimming pool area close by the rooms for warmer weather, we came too late in the date and in cooler weather.

Enjoyable stay with beautiful views. Clean and comfortable accommodation with extra blankets for the colder nights. Easy access to various golf courses. Short drive to the Kruger Park. Very central to explore the area. Thank you to Magda and Paul.

Haniki and Eugene Leroux

Balito

We love the location and the surrounding. The view is stunning. The management are very caring, service-orientated and communicative. The pricing is reasonable and there is good value for money. Not the best set up for self-catering, beyond a certain extent, considering no kitchen sink or counter space or actual eating space, so it's rather a make-do affair there. However, all of these were well communicated to us, per our questions, when we made inquiries prior to booking. All in all we were very satisfied and would return and would probably make more use of Thyme restaurant on site next time, for suppers. We did order a Greek Salad from the restaurant to accompany our braai and it was very good and reasonably priced.

Brad Roby

Emergency booking exiting Kruger Park, tired and dirty and pleasantly surprised to reach the oasis that is Nabana Lodge. Great company with both Magda and Paul as hosts. The rooms are clean and neat and just what is needed when travelling. We will be back – and don’t forget to look after the dogs!

Our stay at Nabana was a restful one. The breakfast was very delicious and filling. I will definitely recommend Nabana to anybody looking for accommodation in the Hazyview area. My husband was very pleased with me having looked up and booked Nabana for our getaway. The rooms are spacious and neat. The service we received was excellent. Magda takes time to know her visitors and she even called us on our way to the lodge on the day of our arrival to find out how far we were with our journey and our expected time of arrival at the lodge.

My daughters and I went on a road trip from Bloemfontein to Hazyview. We stayed at Nabana Lodge. Nabana lodge is central to all the places we visited. It really was a wonderful experience. At Nabana you can tick all the boxes from excellent food to friendliness. It felt like home. We will definitely go back for another vacation. Thank you Magda for a wonderful stay.

We stayed (3adults and one child) at Nabana Lodge. Sincerely the best view (sundowns and sunsets) from our cute little house. Personnel really friendly and helpful. Enjoyed our stay and can recommend Nabana Lodge to anyone who needs a break away from home. Next to highway and there really is no noise where we stayed. Security and safety makes your stay that much better. Beautiful gardens with a neat pool where you can really relax. We also enjoyed a superb supper and breakfast. We will definitely return to Nabana Lodge should we visit that area again.

Marianna van Rooyen

From the moment we arrived at the lodge and were given our rooms, it felt like home away from home. Your friendliness, professionalism and efficiency made me feel welcome and the food was nice. I also enjoyed the coziness of the clean and comfortable rooms with a very beautifully panoramic vista with a sunrise that took my breath away. I will highly recommend this lodge to anyone traveling to Mpumalanga in the future!

We had a warm welcome at this place and Magda really takes care of customers. The rooms are nice and very clean. Only the bathrooms look like a little bit old fashioned. You can have good food at restaurant for good price and use swimming pool if it's too hot.
Not very far from Kruger Parc it can be a good location to visit.

Its was a wonderful Weekend, we received a warm welcome from Magda who went out of her way to make our stay a pleasant and comfortable by attending to our special needs personally. special arrangements were made by her to accommodate my family and I. Nabana lodge is a child friendly environment which is located close to the Kruger Gates. the only aspect I think Magda could improve on is having a cartoon channel for kids on the TV. Overall its a pleasant place and would recommend it to others.

We've spent a wonderful relaxing week at Nabana in January. The staff were friendly and the food is good. We will definitely return. It is well located and daytrips can be undertaken to The Kruger Park and other interesting places in the area.

Without booking I was very relieved to find that there was a room available. The rooms were neat clean and simple. A TV and microwave is provided if needed. The pub was great. A number of locals were in which is a good sign. The restaurant offered a comprehensive menu at very good prices. Security was excellent and your vehicle was just outside the lodge and behind a locked gate. As to value for money, that was excellent. I will certainly recommend it to friends, family and colleagues.

Thank you for making our wedding day perfect. The most friendly, efficient and outstanding service you could expect. We recommend Nabana Lodge as the perfect venue for a wedding or function as you are treated as a friend rather than a guest.

Nestled in banana land... Nabana Lodge gives you the best view of the sunrise and a lovely refreshing environment - the gardens are just marvellous filled with the tropical air, rooms are specious and giving you the freedom to have your early morning coffee in your room or just a full meal for yourself... if not, you have an opportunity to excite your taste buds from the sumptuous meals from Paul - a British Chef whose found it his joy to give a variety of dishes on offer for all guests and locals visiting Nabana Lodge. Nabana Lodge a place to visit again and again to receive the warmth of Nabana Lodge welcome from the owner and the staff. Rooms are well ventilated and filled with natural light. You sleep relaxed.

Nabana Lodge, nahe Hazeyview, liegt in unmittelbarer Nähe des Krüger Nationalparks der Eingangstore Numbi und Phabeni. Mitten in Bananenplantagen eingebettet genieest du den Blick von deinem Zimmer mit unvergesslichen Impressionen in Richtung Osten.
Nabana Lodge, eine Eigentümer geführte 3 Sterne Lodge liegt nahe dem Ort Hazeyview. Erkunde von hier die Panorama Route, den Kruger National Park und erlebe weitere Abenteuer. Von Bananenplantagen umgeben ist Nabana Lodge ein stiller Rückzugsort mit wundervollen Ausblicken auf die östlich abfallenden Niederungen.
Was ursprünglich als eine Farm anfing hat sich langsam in ein Gastronomiegewerbe erweitert.
Die 8 Zimmer der Nabana Lodge sind stilvoll eingerichtet und die Sonnenaufgänge traumhaft schön. Geniesse eine Abkühlung im Schwimmbad und einen Sundowner auf der Terasse.

Das Restaurant bietet seinen Gästen ein a la Carte Menu und eine Auswahl an südafrikanischen Bieren und Weinen an.

Die Nabana Lodge bietet ein absolut gutes Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis

A lovely clean and neat lodge. Lovely food. A bit small, I would have liked to have more sitting space, had no sitting room, I also find a small fridge is also necessary and it didn't have one, It also didn't have a counter (kitchen top) to work on. Great for a backpacker. Friendly people, nice view.

We kozen de locatie omdat die ideaal gelegen is om van daaruit de panorama route te bezoeken.
Niet superluxueus maar wel dik in orde. Supervriendelijke eigenaars die ook hun restaurant langer openhielden omdat we later dan voorzien arriveerden.
Paul, de zoon van de eigenares en barman, geeft je heel uitgebreid en graag alle advies.
Het eten is er lekker en de bar is een goede plaats om te vertoeven en ervaringen met anderen uit de wisselen.

The room were clean and well kept during our stay. We had a stay included 3 pre-booked excursions namely a spa treatment, 3 outdoor activities and trip up to Blyde Cannon. I appreciated the booking to the cannon as the road was unfamiliar to us and the guide we went with was familiar to the area so all the good spots for sight seeing was indicated. As mentioned to Magda, I think to enhance the holiday experience more it would be better if the packages were spread over a few days and not only for 2 days like in our case. Maybe a four-five day trip itinerary. There quite a bit to see in Hazyview and the surrounding areas, fitting everything in two or three days does make it seem rushed. But overall the experience was good and memorable. Thank you Claudia Pietersen
