Glamping Sites in Phalaborwa

Very kind personnel. This place is a beautiful haven. Clean, intimate setting.

Everything was beyond expectation, I highly recommend a stay here if you get the opportunity. Every detail and bit of care put into your stay is so special both Butch and the owner are just so friendly and accommodating we couldn't have asked for a better stay and this is now our new no.1 spot to stay moving forward. The tents are amazing and you are short of nothing on your stay they have truly thought of it all. Thank you Butch for being so accommodating during our stay and it was absolutely lovely meeting the owner the next morning at the park gate.

Location and outside shower lovely!! Friendly and helpful staff

Beautiful location, excellent food, amazing and knowledgable staff and memorable game drives

Location in the private reserve was fantastic with pool and a view to animals passing by. The two daily Game Drives were also fantastic with guides that have a high level of knowledge of all topics concerning the private reserve and animal life. We felt completely save eventhough we were very close to both lions, elephants, girafs and a lot of other animals. Food was delicious and well-prepared. Atmosphere at the bush lodge were welcoming and calm. At the bush lodge has in totale room for maximum 6 people which makes a friendly and close atmosphere. Our biggest compliments to Niel and Milly who made our 2 day stay unforgettable. We are definitely planning to come back and bring our family next time.

From the moment we arrived at Abelana Safari Camp, we could tell this was going to be a special experience, and it truly exceeded all expectations. The hosts, Marge and John, were the standout highlights of the entire stay. Their warmth, hospitality, and dedication to ensuring we had an unforgettable time were evident in every interaction. The Abelana Game Reserve itself was stunning, with diverse wildlife, vast landscapes, and tranquil settings. The accommodations had that perfect blend of luxury and nature. However, it was Marge and John's personal touch that elevated the experience. They took the time to greet us upon arrival and made sure we were settled in before giving us a brief tour of the property. Marge and John were always available to answer any questions and offer advice. The numerous guided game drives with John were a particular highlight. His knowledge of the wildlife, passion for conservation, geology and astronomy made the drives not just informative but also a genuine pleasure. We saw an impressive range of animals, from majestic rhinos, lions to elusive predators, and John’s ability to spot wildlife from afar was truly impressive. With Marge and John as your hosts, the Abelana Safari Camp was a truly memorable and heartwarming experience. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for an unforgettable safari experience with hosts who genuinely care about making your stay extraordinary.

A very great stay. The area is quite bushy and can be more difficult than other open areas to spot animals very quick but the rewards once in front of them are so satisfying. And photography wise it gives a lot of texture, with a touch of dramaturgy. Did I see the big 5? Yes within the 2 first games drives : a group of rhinos, a pride of 12 lions , a leopard at a water point , tons of elephants … Sabre the guide was just pushing the games drives into another level, sharing from a so professional and passionated engagement : explanations on animals behaviours, tracks, flora and conservation. The camp: rustic, not fenced , very comfortable with a view on a water point from the tents. (From my terrasse I saw: elephants, kudus, hyenas, lion…. Just amazing). To finish my review a major thanks to Jude and the team at the camp for their generosity in welcoming and treating guests. I really enjoyed my time at Ndzuti camp, not the last time.
