The very prestigious Abangane Guest Lodge is located on a 22 hectare portion of the original “Farm de Rust” situated on the Sabie Road in Hazyview. Since opening, Abangane Guest Lodge continues to maintain its exclusive 4 star environment. The Lodge is highly regarded for its peaceful, tranquil surroundings and its ability to provide the highest quality of service. Guests marvel at the sheer expanse of the luscious surrounding bushveld, picturesque gardens, panoramic views across the valley, the majestic mountains in the distance and the promise of a glorious sunset. Abangane is an exceptional and exclusive lodge. At sunrise and sunset Zebras, Impalas, Giraffes and many more can be seen grazing on the neighboring private game farm. The sparkling blue infinity pool with its breathtaking view over the valley adds to the serene ambiance. Nighttime is magical with lanterns that invite you for a walk through the lush gardens while you take in the sounds of the evening. Most evenings you will be blessed with the haunting cry of the Fish Eagle heard high above the hilltops. Abangane Guest Lodge is the ideal gateway to the famous Kruger National Park. Three access gates are located nearby, the closest being the Phabeni Gate reachable within a leisurely 15 minute drive. The Blyde River Canyon with the famous God’s Window and other spectacular attractions are easily accessible from Abangane Lodge. All just a day trip away. Some of the best restaurants in the area are a short drive from the Lodge as well as a comprehensive, well equipped shopping centre a mere 2 km away. Discerning travelers will find quick access to most amenities and resources they may require. A wholesome continental or full English breakfast can be enjoyed in the Lodge dining room or on the open veranda. The abundant birdlife welcomes in the day as you plan your activities over freshly brewed coffee or tea. After a day of adventure and wonderment you are welcome to relax and enjoy a sundowner poolside, or relax under the gazebo in our tranquil surroundings. Should you not feel like dining out a delicious candlelight dinner could be prepared for you. This would be by prior arrangement.

We had a wonderful 4 night stay at Abangane. The place is beautiful, the room luxurious. Margaret was a wonderful host and her staff are excellent. Breakfasts were tasty and a delight. We’d return in a minute.

We go to Abangane once a year, it’s our accommodation of choice whilst visiting the Kruger. We love the view, the hospitality and homely feel. Super relaxed, massages can be arranged. My husband is a golfer so this location is perfect for that as well.

We have recently returned from our trip to South Africa. Having stayed at Abangane 3 times before, our obvious choice for accommodation when leaving KNP was of course Abangane! This is a lovely guest lodge in a beautiful rural location but only a short distance from shops, restaurants and local amenities. The rooms are spacious and well equipped with everything you need with a superb breakfast to wake up to. I would recommend this guest lodge 100 per cent!

Thank you so much for hosting us. We enjoyed our stay and your kindness. The views from the pool and garden were quite lovely, the food was good and the staff friendly. It was also nice to be quite close to the shopping malls and convenience stores.

My boyfriend and I stayed at Abangane for 4 nights and had the most wonderful time! The property is located in a very quiet and peaceful place with a beautiful view which made us feel very relaxed. There is a bit of a bumpy dirty road to get to the property so I would recommend traveling with a 4x4. Margariet was always very kind and helpful and baked fresh cakes daily for afternoon tea which were delicious! The rooms are large and very clean and the breakfast was fresh with many options to choose from. We would definitely stay here again every time we’re in the area!

Abangane Guest Lodge sits between the Panoramic Route to Blyde River Canyon and 3 access gates to Kruger National Park. The closest gate being about 10-15 minutes away. The guest lodge sits looking over spectacular scenery of the nearby valleys with mature gardens and pool to enjoy the views. There are 5 suites with a covered outdoor terrace and outdoor seating and loungers around the pool. The rooms have tea and coffee facilities with cafetieres and local speciality Sabie Valley coffee (nice touch). The toiletries are nice too with a range by Kalahari which, again, was nice. Breakfast was from 8am and should absolutely not be missed (seriously). A blend of the best of both worlds. An a la carte (cooked to order) and a buffet with fruit, breads, jams, meats, cheeses nut butters (including macadamia butter). Cereals, breakfast cakes and much more. A great start to the day. Abangane was very easy to stay in and Margarit is very knowledgeable and offered some solutions for local activities too. Great and enjoyable stay.

This is a peaceful place to stay with spacious, well equipped rooms and a fantastic breakfast selection. We very much enjoyed our stay and daily tips from Margrit on what to do and how best to do it were helpful. Highly recommended.

My friend and I visited Abangane Lodge Hotel in February. We had been a little apprehensive as there had been floods reported in the area. However, when we arrived we were greeted by Margrit , a lovely Swiss lady, who was very welcoming and helpful telling us the best places to visit. Abangane Lodge is in a beautiful setting with lovely gardens and seating and a swimming pool overlooking a lake. Our room was beautifully decorated with a tasteful African theme and drapes on the bed. Breakfast was set out for us the following morning – fit for a King or Queen with a menu for a full cooked breakfast as well. Margrit also left home-made cakes for us each day for afternoon tea. We had an early start on Safari the day after we arrived and Margrit had left a coolbag with a very substantial breakfast/lunch to take with us which was very welcome. It was a delightful place to stay and we would highly recommend it.

This is a very special place, offering spacious and tasteful accommodation, with an infinity pool overlooking a valley, providing a great vista whilst taking a relaxing swim. The breakfast was very good indeed, everything from cereal, cooked and continental breakfast options. The owner bakes fresh cakes everyday to have in the afternoon which was a lovely touch. The owner was very knowledgable about the area and provided great advice and what to visit when. We would definitely stop at Abangane on future trips to Hazyview/Kruger area.
