Gecko Lodge

Nice small lodge located in the middle of the bush. Staff are very friendly, they immediately assisted by a wasp sting. We had the room upstairs, the honeymoon sweet and it was lovely. It was however quite hot and the fan didn’t really work well, needs to be replaced I think. Loved the bath, very relaxing. Food was great, we chose the traditional African bobotie, delicious! Breakfast we didn’t have because we left very early. WiFi was very good.

When we entered Gecko Lodge we were warmly welcomed. The place is beautiful! The start of our stay started with a few hiccups (Wifi problem and broken pipe in the shower) but the owners did absolutly everything to fix it and to make up for it. The room was clean and the bed was nice. The best part about staying at Gecko Lodge is the diners! We were surprised about the lovely atmosphere, the amazing three courses and the extremely helpful and friendly staff. During our safari’s we talked about how we were looking forward to our diner again! Also worth mentioning that it’s a perfect base for Safari’s in Kruger. It’s close to one of the gates and Gecko Lodge provides breakfastbaskets and they are awesome! We loved it at Gecko Lodge!

an unforgettable experience with breakfast and top chef dinners at the fire place, very friendly and experienced staff, safety of us as visitors is first priority, personal service, daily cleaned rooms, amazing atmosphere where you are in contact with the special sounds of the woods during the night, excellent setting in the most beautiful Hazyview valley. Our go to place in the Lowveld!!

Great hospitality and friendly helpful staff. Very comfortable rooms despite load shedding throughout our stay, but at least we always had hot water and were able to still have a hot bath after a long work day.

A lovely 2 night stay. Beautiful location with good food and great staff. Prisca a great Manageress, we wish her all the best with the new ideas for the lodge. A stunning pool area and alfresco area for evening dining especially.

Good stay would recommend it for singles, couples and groups. Manager and owner make you feel at home. Staff is friendly and always willing to assist wherever you need anything. Almost spent the whole week. Activities are also great from GZ Adventures

The reception was so good we felt at home.. The breakfast was on top and the staff from the house keeping, kitchen and the management were so friendly. I will definately refer friends and family. Gracious

Feel a bit mean about 4 stars as the grounds are beautiful and the bedrooms are bright and modern. Eating dinner under the stars around an open fire was also memorable but there were a few negatives. Food was very average and the swimming pool was small and quite murky. One of our party experienced a gecko urinating on her head through the roof of her room - I tried not to laugh

Good day What a bad treatment we got at Gecko Lodge, not sure why we got that kind of the treatment or maybe because we black people or what.I've booked the place via bookings.com 2 to 3 ago months and paid infull, trying to avoid any dispointments.we were running late for checking in time,so I phoned the Gecko Lodge & informed them that we running, but we coming from Johannesburg,to my surprise when we arrived at the lodge, The ower told us sorry,his drunk&his from the rugby match,& our room is been booked because the people from Rugby match have booked the place &it's full booked,so it simply means at the Lodge they don't use 1st come 1st serve.They just want to make easy cash, because it was at night &we had no other place to go to. They gave us a ice cold back room, with no tiles &no hotel/logde basics,we had to check out the following morning so that we could go book at a better place . to receive a better customer service, lucky enough they refunded me the money,but still waiting for in to reflect in my account.
