Luxury bush villa in an exclusive wildlife estate near Kruger Park

Wonderful home which is really well equippedQuiet and quite remote which we liked - it is a 15min drive from the entrance to the house on a dirt road but we did no experience any issues.Great to see wildlife waling past your balcony on a daily basisThe only negative is that the TV is tiny in the study and the DSTV has no sport package - a must for SA renters in rugby/cricket season - we had a fabulous time

We had a great time here. Waking up to the sounds of the birds and having morning coffee with the animals walking by. The view of the mountains is fabulous and is never the same. The house is very complete and we felt very welcome. We definately recommend staying here if you are in Hoedspruit!Hiske & Remco

We have stayed at this property multiple times as we cannot find any reason to look at different listings. Good location for driving to 2 of Kruger's entrance gates. Great communication with owners and local property managers.

This is a wonderful home situated close to a small lake. The house has been very well maintained and decorated perfectly. You see more animal action sitting on the Patio than on tours through Kruger Park. You can see the owner takes a lot of pride in his home.

Had a wonderful week long stay. Though it was only two of us, the property would very comfortably fit a group of either. Watching the wildlife from the back patio was pretty amazing. Owners and management were very responsive and polite. The only negative would be that it's about 15 minutes from the gate, but didn't bother us, and seemed with it for the location. If we return to the area wouldn't hesitate to book again!

We have stayed at Maruleng several times. Large, private feel property with outstanding view. Great communication with owners and local property managers. Highly recommend!

Another great stay at Raptor's View. Cannot thank owners and property managers enough for their time and assistance during this stay.

This is a beautiful, spacious and secluded home. There are many marked hiking trails to explore right out the front & back doors of the house. Get a map from the administration office when you first arrive and be aware of the time when you head out. There is lots of wildlife to observe in the backyard by the watering hole and on the hiking trails. The outdoor showers were fabulous and a great fire pit under the incredible stars. We thoroughly enjoyed our excursions to Hoedspruit Endangered Species Centre, the Blyde Canyon River Cruise with a hike on the Waterfall Trail and the afternoon safari at Tshukada Lodge. Hoedspruit is a beautiful area to explore. It is a 15 minute drive from the main gate to the house which allows for the wonderful privacy but it is a winding and bumpy road particularly right near the house, so always make a list when going into town. Also, I would recommend downloading the app for Load Shedding so you are aware of times the power will be turned off at the house. Our family would definitely choose to stay at this amazing home again & will recommend it to others. We miss this piece of paradise already, Lori

My family including 4 young children had a wonderful time during Christmas and New Year 2019 - 2020 in the fantastic bush villa on Raptor's View. The villa is luxury and completely in style. Nice and spacious with all available and working equipment and amenities. The instruction guide the owner sends you upfront is very well cared for and complete in every detail. Highly recommendable accomodation for those who love privacy and wildlife and luxury. A nice lovely detail is showering in the outdoorshower under the clear African sky with all the thousands of visible stars.

My family of 6 absolutely loved this beautiful home. The views were breathtaking of the mountains and each day we enjoyed a visit by the friendly giraffe. The home is very spacious and the beds so comfortable! The owners Rolien and Paul were very gracious and attentive to all my questions and the visitors guide was so helpful! Mr. Leslie Locke from Your Service was invaluable arranging a Sunset Safari and providing helpful insights while at Raptors View. We all agreed we would return in a heartbeat.
