Ngalali Retreat

Ngalali Retreat is a small family-run lodge nestled in the African bush bordering the well-known Kruger National Park. Situated in Grietjie private Nature Reserve, Balule within the Greater Kruger National Park. All the wild animals and the big 5 included are free to roam for thousand of hectares since many fences were put down in between the bordering reserves and the Kruger N.P. itself. Its rustic though cosy setting is perfect for those who want to leave behind the hustle and bustle of city life and relax in an informal and natural ambiance without renouncing comforts and delicious meals.

The owners, a South African - Italian couple, live on-site, and they are pleased to welcome and assist their guests upon arrival and during their stay at Ngalali Retreat. Their friendly inclination and professional approach will enhance the guest's experience at the lodge. During your stay, you will view a lot of wildlife, either while sipping a drink from the stoop of the lodge or on a game drive from our private game viewer vehicle. For the fondest birdwatcher, we have abundant bird life too!

Enjoy the enchanting elephants and wallowing warthogs bathing at our waterhole or the call of a lion while sitting around the campfire at night. There is an extensive garden with a large circular swimming pool, the property is fenced off so that you can enjoy walking outside your room in total safety.

We try to give our guests a quiet retreat, therefore there are no televisions. We do however provide free Wifi for your convenience, and there is cellphone reception everywhere.
