Kaia Tani Exclusive Guesthouse, hotel in Phalaborwa

Set just 1 km from Kruger National Park, this guest house offers on-site game drives and rooms with free Wi-Fi, TV and African-themed décor. Hans Merensky Golf course is 3 km away.

This was my third stay at Kaia Tani, and the first under the new ownership. I was delighted to find that it still had the same comfort and charm that I experienced in my previous visits over 20 years ago. Located close to the Phalaborwa entrance to the Kruger NP, my wife and I really enjoyed both the morning walk though the park and the 10 hr safari the following day. The locals informed us that they have never had Malaria and never take Malaria medication, They did point out that the mosquito numbers increase after heavy rain, and that small pools of water should be avoided. On the final day, Barabara, the owner, took us on a very interesting tour of the surrounding suburbs of the town, and included a stop at a local primary school where we were able to greet some of the students.

    The Kruger National Park's gate is very close to the town.

    The Kruger National Park's gate is very close to the town. A pleasant town with everything you need for a stay in the Kruger. Roads to Phalaborwa, from Pretoria are in a good condition. Accommodation in Phalaborwa is plentiful.

    Plenty of bush lodges in tur surrouding area.

    Plenty of bush lodges in tur surrouding area. It has many options and you can choose to stay at what suits your budget. Close to the Kruger Phalaborwa gate. Just make sure to have a bigger car such as 4x4 for the gravel roads.

    The place was very accommodating,5 KM from Kruger National park ,the host was very friendly she provided us with everything we needed she even offered us to use her kitchen as rooms are just for sleeping and showering so we had a great time and hope to have stayed longer they just need to clean their pool.

    It is a typical mining town with adequate infrastructure.

    It is a typical mining town with adequate infrastructure. Some roads are in poor condition. The town however has beautiful winter climate and is right next to the Kruger National Park. Phalaborwa is a good and affordable alternative if accommodation in the Kruger Park is a challenge. Good shops and restaurants in down town.

    Phalaborwa is a mining town, and has deteriorated somewhat in last 15 years, but has a good clean mall and popular shops like Woolworths. Game can be spotted all around and the entrance 1km from town to Kruger Park further enhances its attractiveness. A good hotel and eatery -Bush Terrace- can be found right at the gate.

    Phalaborwa itself has little to offer and is not a vibrant or well maintained town. Its only real advantage is fast access to Kruger. Hoedspruit is a more interesting and prettier town with interesting coffee and other shops to visit when taking a break from game viewing in Kruger. Orpen gate is not too far from Hoedspruit.
