Guest Reviews
- Christy (10/5): -
- MignonH (9/5): Wonderful stay - Spacious tent. Our unit was serviced daily. Staff very friendly. Very close to the Kruger. Close to the shops if you need anything.
Saw lots of animals right outside our unit.
We loved our time here! There was a party at one of the units one evening which was a bit bothersome which obviously wasn't the fault of the establishment. Also possibly look at having a different door for the bathroom as a sliding door doesn't really offer any privacy.
- Lesedi (9/5): Overall, the place is modern and the tents are comfortable and spacious - I like that it’s close to the shops and I really enjoyed the play area it really kept the kids and I entertained 🙂 The shower had strands of hairs… seems it was not properly cleaned
- Lynsey (10/5): -
- Guest (10/5): Jackal berry stay - Spent our Easter break down here… this place offers the much-needed silence, peace, serenity, and relaxation.
- Liam (9/5): -
- Rocio (10/5): -
- Tebogo (10/5): -
- Marcia (10/5): In 1 woord FANTASTISCH! - We werden zo onzettend vriendelijk ontvangen. We kregen al een appje voordat we aankwamen en bij de receptie stonden 2 dames die ons helemaal thuis lieten voelen. We reden naar onze tent en daar werden we verwelkomd door impala's en wrattenzwijnjes. We sliepen in een prachtige tent. Mega groot met een heerlijk king size bed en een mooie badkamer. Het privé zembadje maakte het glamping gevoel helemaal af. De tenten staan ver uit elkaar waardoor je veel privacy hebt. Winkels zijn in de buurt en er is een goede slager. We hebben 1 avond gebraaid en toen werden we verrast door een hele groep banded mangooses. De ingang van het Krügerpark is 20 minuten rijden. Niets

- Ristl (9/5): -
- Neide (10/5): Awesome - Facilities were nice and clean. Staff was very friendly. Definitely a must come back No breakfast included. That was a boomer
- David (8/5): A lovely stay - Great location Upstairs room has bathroom downstairs and not in bedroom
- Bernedette (9/5): Zo’n fijne plek met de dieren die voorbij komen! - Alles. Ik was hier al eerder geweest. Ik wist wat ik kon verwachten. Geen idee.
- Maryke (10/5): - The peace and quite! Nothing :) it was really perfect
- PrincesNthabi (10/5): Awesome, will return for a longer stay - The entire setup including the full kitchen The shower water keeps switching to cold
- Udo (10/5): -
- Esther (9/5): Geweldige tent met veel luxe en comfort - de tent was luxe en comfortabel Keuken was iets klein. Maar dat wisten we en niet belangrijk voor ons
- Francesca (9/5): Contesto fantastico in un luogo piacevolissimo. - La tenda davvero sorprendente. Il letto comodo e il bagno confortevole. La piccola piscina privata, lo spazio esterno esclusivo e la privacy. Abbiamo incontrato alcuni animali proprio fuori dalla porta. C'era uno spazio giochi per bambini molto carino e il personale è stato molto gentile e disponibile!
- Oupa (7/5): Wonderful and refreshing…recommend if looking for a proper camping site! - Clean, beautiful and very quiet and refreshing. The shower facility. Can’t get the water mixture right; fluctuates between too hot to extremely cold! Tried several adjustments, but couldn’t get it right…seems like a design flaw…
- CARL (7/5): - Spacious tents
Wild animals surrounding A bit cold
- DANIEL (9/5): - Beautiful glamping tents. Very clean and the beds are extremely comfortable. It is isolated enough from the other tents so that it feels very private which we loved. My toddler loved the interaction with the various animals, from wildebeest to bushbuck. Great location. Only about a 15 to 20 min drive from crocodile bridge. Staff very helpful and sorted any issues we had with immediate effect. Would be nice if the kitchen was a little bigger. It is only big enough for one person to be in there at a time, which isn't always ideal. Other than that, loved our stay and will be back.
- Undjee (9/5): JBR has everything you need to make your family stay comfortable and luxurious ☺️accommodation and self catering facilit - When traveling with a toddler we always try and book a place that can accommodate us all and JBR was a comfortable stay for all of us
- Khan (9/5): -

- Charl (9/5): Superb -

- Jeridah (10/5): I really enjoyed my stay, just listening to birds chirping and random visits from wild friends. - I loved it when they brought the iron 1 minute after I asked for it. 10/10 service A small snake that passed while we were relaxing outside made other people uncomfortable.
- Zweli (10/5): Our stay there was very heavenly !! - We liked our rooms which were very clean and the beds were comfortable. The Kitchen had everything we needed from air fryer to spoons. We enjoyed our very own pool with the outside shower. We had all the privacy we needed. The stuff was very friendly and professional. Not forgetting the animals that kept visiting us, we got to understand and appreciate them more.

- Leroux (10/5): Exceptional - The bush atmosphere lets you relax the moment you get off the main road. You feel miles away from the hustle and bustle. Fans was good, but aircon would make a difference.
- Ntsako (8/5): Very good -
- Rendani (9/5): Perfect for family holidays. We will definitely be doing it again and encouraging more families to come with next time. - Excellent front office service. The units are very clean. Very friendly housekeeping staff.
We liked that the tents are positioned in a way that makes everyone feel like they are home away from home.
The WhatsApp group is a great initiative in keeping us informed and knowing that help is always just a text away. The person responsible for it is also super friendly.🙏🏿💯 Towel cleaning could be done more frequently.
The private pools were not as clean as the main pool.

Sleeping in a hot tent without air-conditioning
It was impossible to stay in the tent between 10 am and 9pm. This was in August..Cannot imagine how hot it will be in summer.

- Van (10/5): Exceptional -
- Isabelle (10/5): Exceptional -
- Avanthie (10/5): Jackelberry Ridge has all the right ingredients to make a family vacation magical. - The accommodation is absolutely stunning and surprisingly spotless for a bush getaway. The tents are luxurious yet the feeling of being immersed in the Kruger culture is not lost. Waking up to the wildlife and having them surround you in such a quite confidence is exhilarating.
The staff, especially Tanya, is an absolute delight. We will definitely be returning for years to come. Absolutely nothing.
- Carmymich (10/5): Exceptional -
- Wynand (6/5): Pleasant - The location is great! Definitely could do with an Aircon!
- Scheepers (10/5): Exceptional -
- Liza (10/5): Exceptional - Privacy None
- Michelle (10/5): Just Jackelberry - Great service from arrival to departure. Tent was super clean and neat, as if it was built yesterday. We were treated like royalty up to the special request for a surprise at the tent. I've stayed in quite a few places in Marloth, and Jackelberry is definitely up there.
Lots of animal sightings, they practically sleep next to the tent hahahahahaha.
Will definitely be back. Highly recommend 👌 For me, the towels were just a bit too soft... didn't dry nicely. That's literally all🙂
- Maluleka (10/5): Exceptional - The priva8
- Adrienne (10/5): Relaxing, revitalising and an absolute treat. - We loved the splash pool. It was so hot, being mid summer, and we were able to relax in the pool , with tame buck and warthog wandering the area, it was fabulous. The glamping accommodation was lovely. A very comfortable King size bed, lovely well appointed bathroom. and 2 ceiling fans which helped us to sleep at night. The kitchen was well appointed and suited our needs perfectly,
The staff were wonderful. Tanya was so friendly and professional as was Nellie, and in fact everyone we met, even the pool cleaner was friendly, We will most certainly be coming back to this lovely resort.
Thank you to everyone. The whatsapp group was also a nice touch to keep the residents informed of what was going on. We cant think of anything
- Zahira (10/5): Luxury stay in the bush - What was not to like! The deck above the tent, your own private pool, a boma with seating, for lunch and dinners spent at the tent, the friendly cleaning staff, the comfortable bed, the clean linen, daily housekeeping, the high-speed fans for the intense summer heat, the EXTREMELY WELL-EQUIPPED kitchen inside our tent (even has an air-fryer!!! :) which we were delighted about), the luxury feel to the tent, the gorgeous and spacious bathroom, the privacy, the distance to one of the Kruger gates, and most of all, Tanya!! Tanya was an absolute superstar!! We had 2 dilemmas' while staying at the resort and Tanya was SO INCREDIBLY accommodating, and that made us feel completely safe and assured! Wi-Fi works in the tent during loadshedding so no problem there. Safe and Secure onsite parking. And once again Tanya :) Loved our stay here and will definitely be back for sure!! Everything was perfect, perhaps the shower temperature could be regulated but other than that, a very pleasant stay. Not a single thing not to like about this place!
- A.barreiro (9/5): Superb - EVERYTHING WAS FANTASTIC. LOAD SHEDDING IS A PAIN, BUT THEN THATS ZA FOR YOU.
- Anonymous (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lotter (10/5): Exceptional - The animals, peace , tranquility Nothing
- Pieter (8/5): Some good revamping and then it will be a perfect place to overnight - A very nice big safari tent. Nice big bed, clean linen, and a big bathroom. Outside lapa and fan a bonus. The small pool is very nice for those hot days. This was our 5th stay and we could see some deterioration in a few things, The bathroom floor was very dirty and slippery, after reporting it, it was cleaned (sort of). We used the outside shower which wasn't clean either, after reporting it, it was cleaned. The kitchen fridge had a bad smell. It was a huge put-off. the braai area is badly cracked, but still OK, for now. Before reporting all the issues to the reception, we first asked the staff (who arrived as we were having breakfast), to do the above mentioned and it wasn't taken in good spirit. Photos don't match what you get. a few years ago it did. The price also went up since our last visit in August 2023 and if it wasn't for our Booking.com genius level 3 discount, we would not have booked this place. Not sure if we will book it again at this price and surely not at the "normal" price of R 1 862,00. per night.
- Linda (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kimbalee (10/5): Exceptional -
- Khadija (8/5): Very good - Everything was great. If it's a camping experience you're looking for, excellent. No air cons. Rooms get a bit stuffy.
