About the Hippo Hollow Country Estate

Set among indigenous gardens on the banks of the Sabie River, Hippo Hollow Country Estate combines a traditional safari-lodge atmosphere with a convenient location near Hazyview and Greater Kruger's Panorama Route.

Your Stay

Accommodation is spread throughout the estate with guest room amenities including air-conditioning, tea and coffee-making facilities and en-suite bathrooms. Rooms also feature a balcony or veranda overlooking the estate.

Two outdoor swimming pools are tucked among the gardens, providing a welcome place to cool off after a day of exploring. The river itself is an attraction, with hippos, monkeys and numerous bird species among the wildlife that may be spotted around the estate.

Dining Options

Overlooking the gardens and Sabie River, Hippo Hollow Restaurant has a relaxed atmosphere with a choice of indoor and outdoor seating. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are served daily, with menus featuring a selection of dishes prepared using seasonal produce. The restaurant’s terrace is a pleasant spot for dinner, looking across the lawn towards the river. Wildlife is also occasionally spotted from the terrace, including hippos that frequent the river.
