Wonderful Stay at Summerfield Hotel

Our stay at Summerfield Hotel was truly delightful. The tented rooms were both comfortable and well-equipped, providing everything we needed for a relaxing experience. The staff were incredibly warm, friendly, and attentive, which added to the charm of our visit. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our time and would happily return.

I did not know what to expect but it lived up to expectations. Keep in mind, the lodging is in a tent style, but still luxury. I was able to bath open air while listening and viewing the forest and Sabie river from my room. The staff went above and beyond to make me comfortable. I had issues with the wifi, but the manager ensured someone was out the next day to fix it. I’m also a vegetarian and the manager created a whole menu just for me. That was very thoughtful. A few mornings I left early and the breakfast pack they give you is amazing! The treatment was also wonderful. I ended up falling asleep since the roaring river was right next to me. The grounds are very beautiful and if I’m ever in the Kruger area again, I will book here but this time with my fiance since it is very couple oriented.

Our stay at Summerfields was so special and unique. The property is small with few guests and a beautiful environment to unwind. The staff is helpful, available but not in the way. The food was fantastic at the restaurant and able to accommodate our gluten free and vegan requests.

Glamping in the rain

We arrived just as it was about to start raining. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Lunch in the River Cafe was quick and delicious and then we went for our Spa treatment. The heavens opened just as our treatment began, and it was so relaxing hearing the rain drop down on the canvas while we were having one of our best treatments ever. Our room was just as per the fotos, beautiful, with exceptional quality linen. We also spent some quality time in the bath overlooking the forest. This was glamping at its best. We will definately be back again.

Amazing place, inconsiderate management

The place is amazing ... However I had a emergency & asked to postpone they said no... & arrived on Friday late night & had to leave on Sunday morning although we were booked till Monday & they charged us for an extra person & was not willing to postpone or refund for extra person ... I think that was very inconsiderate of them considering it was genuine emergency.... my best friend passed away... & Managment was so inconsiderate & only concerned about business & the loss they were going to make 😧😏

A good location next to the river and some of the staff were excellent, especially the security guys who made us feel very welcome. The tents are relatively close, as a base, to the Kruger National Park.

French country in South Africa

Beautiful estate with macadamia and lychee trees. Staff is very attentive walking you to and from your tents. Richard the manager is passionate and very involved with the estate. The tents are right on the water and the sounds of the stream soothe you to sleep. You can watch a family of hippos right at the pool area. The food at the cafe and restaurant are amazing, the restaurant feels like your in southern France, it deserves a Michelin star. Roses are everywhere, and the scents are incorporated interesting the bath salts, shampoos and soaps, spas oils, and food. The spa is incredible, we did a coffee exfoliation and aromatherapy massage. You can do a 5k walk around the estate to see the farm and Rose garden, we saw a small croc too. The resort is 5 minute drive to hazyview stores and 15 min to phabeni gate in kruger. Overall amazing resort, can’t wait to be back!

A slice of heaven

Beautiful, restful, quiet and restorative. A place to unwind and reconnect with yourself. A small piece of heaven. The deep silence can actually be felt. At night it is utterly dark and quiet, except for the sounds of nature, enabling deep sleep. One wakes to the sound of birds and the river. Day trips into Kruger Park are easily arranged. Spa treatments abound. The food is glorious. I can’t imagine a more perfect place to restore the soul.
