Quiet, pleasant setting with peacocks roaming the property. Bar and restaurant available on site. This property is VERY convenient to the Kruger Mpumalanga airport. The property is five minutes away and offers an airport shuttle for a small fee.

Not impressed
Friendly staff but rooms are very basic, hardly a 4 star hotel. I would say its more like a 2 or 3 star hotel. The rooms has poor noise isolation so I could here people clearly in the next rooms. Leakage in the ceiling when it was raining which disturbed the sleep. Location is good if you need to get up early for an early departure out of Nelspruit Airport.

Lovely Spot
My wife & I stayed here twice for a total of three days. We did a Sabi Sands safari in between our stays. The Destiny is lovely piece of property, with a massive front grounds that looks out over some high hills in the distance. Beautiful sunsets. Great food and drinks. Breakfast was very filling. Friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommend this Lodge to anyone looking for a stopover in the area, especially if you like peacocks !

Okay hotel - far out of town
A colleague and I spent a night at this hotel whilst in the White River area for work. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The service was good. It felt strange to feel like we were the only people in the hotel - and certainly the only people at both dinner and breakfast. The dinner was okay - actually a bit pricy for very ordinary food - but the hotel is quite far out of town so we did not want to travel late at night into White River or Nelspruit.

Achei caro pelo que foi oferecido.
O hotel é bem antigo, o banheiro não tem box e nem cortina para tomar banho, como fui no inverno tive muito frio por isso. O quarto tem um Bom tamanho, cama ótima, mas no geral as instalações do hotel são bem antigas. Não tem infra estrutura de lazer a não ser o bar. Café da manhã não teve nada de especial, mas não é ruim. Funcionários muito cordiais.

Hotel de passagem - 10 minutos do aeroporto
Hotel super próximo ao aeroporto de Nelspruit -10 minutos. Transfer grátis. Ótima opção para em estava no Kruger Park e terá de pegar voo logo pela manhã - o meu caso - o voo decolava 06:55. O tempo entre o Kruger Park e o aeroporto é de mais ou menos uma hora e por isso fiz a opção de dormir próximo ao aeroporto. A comida do hotel é muito bem feita....saborosa por um preço justo.
