Hennie's Rest

Hennies is truly a special place. An unbelievable 180 degree view of the Crocodile river. We had elephants eating off the tree whose shade we were enjoying. A small pool, awesome deck areas offering exceptional views up and down the river. Every amenity you could hope for giving Hennie's Rest 5 stars 🌟. When we didn't venture into the Kruger the one day, we saw a multitude of creatures from our viewing decks. We will definitely be going back! No doubt about it.

We had a wonderful family stay at Hennie's in March. My older folks downstairs in apartment Sophie and us 5 upstairs in Hennie's. What a stunning location, the website does not do it justice. Lovely to have the entire place to ourselves. Magical, right on the river. Incredible views from the beautiful deck, there was really no need to leave. Beautiful views from both braai options. Quite a few steps from Hennie's down to the pool area so just be cautious with very young children. Also steps up and down from apartment Sophie to the pool area. If you are able, no problem but just something to keep in mind with older folk who may not be as mobile. Cornelia such a lovely host! Would love to visit again!

What a beautiful location! Right next to the Crocodile River and opposite the Kruger Park. (5 minutes from the Malelane gate) Our views were amazing! We saw plenty of wildlife from the deck including crocodiles, Waterbuck, elephant, bushbuck, fish eagles, impala, hippos and plenty of birds. The house was comfortable with all the amenities you need to self-cater. The owner, Cornelia, was amazing. She shares her passion of the bush with guests and takes care of her beautiful place. The only negative for me was the barking dogs. You need to love dogs to stay here since they visit you most of the time. Still, a special place.
