Hippo Hollow Country Estate

AN OASIS OF TRANQUILITY ON THE BANKS OF THE SABIE RIVER"

Surrounded by the Magic of the African Bush.

Hippo Hollow is nestled amongst lush indigenous gardens on the outskirts of Hazyview, and is only a 10 minute drive from the world famous Kruger National Park, making it the ideal destination from which to access the reserves of the Lowveld and the sights of Mpumalanga.

We were welcomed to the hotel with a nice iced tea, and given our room keys, up we went to our room, twin beds pushed together, a safe that did not work, I wonder if there will be a pattern of issues with the safe’s as we go along, this was fixed quickly…  
The bathroom had an over bath shower, great, got to climb in and hold on to get out for fear of slipping, we found the kettle at 9 pm and the tea and coffee stuff at 9:10 pm, the initial thought was we had to go downstairs for anything to drink before we made this discovery, second hotel with no fridge, maybe this is standard in South Africa, this one had powdered milk not the little long life milk tubs.  
The staff here are very nice and the atmosphere is even better, very relaxed and welcoming.  
​
I would recommend here to anyone that is fortunate enough to come here.
