90 guests' feedbackAlways nice to stay with Dave. Very neat place, stay there often.
Excellent stay.
The owner is very friendly and helpful. It's an excellent place to stay and rest. Quiet atmosphere and the rooms are in great condition.
Dave is a great host and we will be back! Thank you.
Clean tidy accommodation. Friendly reception and service. Is my second time using the guest house. Definitely will again.
The host was extremely friendly and helpful and made us feel very welcome. The lodge is close to the Paul Kruger Gate, and the host recommended the Bushveld and Terrace Hotel where we had an outstanding evening meal. We had a good 2 days' stay at the Sunbird Lodge.
See stars.
I had a very nice stay. There was a double booking because I had to ask for a postponement: The place I had to work for had to be confirmed first and in the meantime it was booked by another website. It was nobody's fault. However, Dave went out of his way to arrange my accommodation for the other two nights at another lodge and also sorted out all the logistics, which were also top notch.
Nice and clean, host very hospitable. Nice place for overnight.
I have stayed at Sunbird Lodge before, and this was the second time. We stayed over before going to the Kruger Park and visited it again on the way home.
The host, Dave, tries very hard (especially during loadshedding) to see to all your needs.
Our host was very welcoming and made sure we are comfortable throughout our stay. The lodge is clean and is in an excellent location which is close to most amenities.
We were a group of 13 who stayed in Sunbird Lodge for 3 nights and drove into Kruger National Park every day. This is an excellent place - very good facilities, very tidy and the host, Dave, treated us like royalty. Sunbird Lodge is highly recommended.
Father and son slept over one night. The room was comfortable, clean and everything worked.
Great location, neat facilities and absolute value for money.
Dave is very friendly and the room and facilities are very neat. Will definitely stay again.
Neat, spacious rooms. Secure parking for our caravans. Delicious breakfast. Dave's hospitality knows no bounds. An excellent place to start or end a wildlife park holiday. Sunbird Lodge will definitely see us again.
Lovely gardens and good location.
I booked, felt safe with the website.
Everything was again clean and tidy. Dave was once again his professional, friendly self.
Host very friendly. Premises neat and quiet. Can definitely recommend it.
We had a very nice stay. The rooms are great and the bathroom as big as a dance hall. It was lovely to sit in the garden and drink coffee. Dave is a great host. Will definitely stay there again.
The unit was clean and very tidy. Washed the next day by two very nice and friendly ladies who came to clean.
Thanks to Dave and team, for your hospitality, excellent food, room and the effort to go the extra mile for us. Memories for life.
Comfortable overnight stay after a long journey to refresh yourself the next morning after a delicious breakfast to tackle the Kruger.
A great place to be for quiet time and relaxation.
Only stayed 1 night and enjoyed it again. Lovely, large garden and very peaceful. Can recommend Sunbird Lodge.
We were warmly welcomed warmly by Debbie on a rainy day. We had planned some sight sering but due to the rain this could not happen. She allowed us to book in at 11:30 which we appreciate.
Nice and safe for my wife while I have business appointments.
Great establishment.
Ideal overnight facility with good security and the helpfulness is out of the books.
We were warmly received by Dave. He even booked us a table at a restaurant. Place is neat and clean. We will definitely stay there again if we are in the area.
Dave is an excellent host, and he was helpful even before our arrival with restaurant recommendations. We had a lovely room in a very quiet, big garden. Dave served us breakfast on the veranda outside. We really recommend Sunbird as a place to stay.
Management extremely accommodating as I had to change arrangements twice. Thank you very much for that.
It was lovely to stay at Sunbird Lodge. Warm welcome, friendly service and definitely value for money. They even accommodated me for a vegetarian breakfast. Will definitely stay there again on the way to the game park.
Tidy. Very good location. We were welcomed by one of the nicest people ever! We immediately felt welcome. The rooms are very neat and well furnished. The beds also sleep very comfortably. We drove early the next morning and got an incredibly tasty fresh breakfast package to take with us. Excellent service.
Lovely spacious accommodation, in a beautiful garden with swimming pool!
Very comfortable, clean, tidy, hospitable people and they will go the extra mile. Can recommend for sure. Don't miss the spot. Thank you very much Dave. You are a star.
After stressful and difficult weather conditions, Sunbird was a safe guest house for us. Everything was perfect and we soon found peace in a lovely garden. The host was very friendly and helpful. Our breakfast package was delicious and the communication with the owner was very good. We will come again.
The host received us very kindly and gave us information about the town and where the restaurants are. Beautiful, large and comfortable rooms. Very nice garden and peaceful atmosphere. Good location and safe parking. Will definitely stay there again.
We had a great barbecue and the owner really went out of his way to make sure we had everything we might need. Very nice breakfast which was included in our per night rates.
We were very satisfied with the service. Will stay there again.
Nice and clean. Friendly staff and a great breakfast.
Unit is neat and clean. Host helpful and goes the extra mile. Breakfast delicious.
The owner was very friendly and helpful and assisted us with a breakfast pack for our early departure to the Kruger. Highly recommended.
The host is very friendly and helpful. Communication was great from the moment we booked. Got a delicious breakfast pack to take with us as we left early in the morning for the wildlife park. Everything was very comfortable and good places to eat in Phalaborwa were recommended.
Dave welcomes us every time with a friendly greeting and smile. The rooms are very comfortable and clean. The breakfast is also very well prepared. Really very pleasant to spend the night here.
Friendly and generous reception by owner. Breakfast very tasty and unit clean and tidy.
As always, Dave was there with his kindness and assistance. Nothing is ever too much for him. Once again we had a nice stay and slept. Every time we go to Kruger Park we will spend the night at Sunbird Lodge.
It had all one needs for an overnight stay and a terrific host to go with it. Thanks.
There is a beautiful garden with lots of birds and a swimming pool to cool off in. The room was comfortable with a nice view of the garden. The owners were very hospitable and served us a delicious breakfast.
Our one night stop in Phalaborwa due to meeting requirements did not do the opportunity to explore and make use of the Kruger National Park as potential tourists. Perhaps next time!
Very good value for money. Neat, clean rooms and nice breakfast.
Sunbird Lodge is a beautiful guest house with excellent, neat and extremely clean accommodation (best mattresses we have ever had in a guest house). Dave was a wonderful host who went out of his way to ensure we enjoyed our stay and were fully informed about all the facilities in and around Phalaborwa, what the weather forecast was and where to get what. Breakfast was delicious, served in a beautifully decorated, clean and tidy dining room. This is definitely a guest house that every visitor to Phalaborwa can happily consider and that we will definitely use again.
Would have liked parking closer to the rooms. It's quite a distance to walk with luggage.
A beautiful and comfortable stay with a lovely breakfast and helpful staff. Make sure that you lock up securely. We unfortunately did not and got robbed of cellphones, jewellery, cash and laptops at 03:00 while sleeping. All our own negligence.
From the friendly reception by the owner, the guided tour of the setup, the quiet atmosphere in the lapa in a bird-rich garden, the clean and comfortable room with enormous bath to the very tasty breakfast of fruit from our own garden, the time was really pleasant.
A very pleasant stay. The host was very friendly and nothing was too much trouble.
Dave goes out of his way to make you feel welcome. The sleeping units are clean and tidy, safe parking and even a swimming pool if you want to cool off in the hot Phalaborwa sun. Truly fantastic. Oh yes, the breakfast is also delicious.
We could not fault this peaceful, comfortable and reasonably priced establishment and the service received from TravelGround was exceptional. We will not hesitate to recommend Sunbird Lodge.
Make use of the overnight stay every time we enter Phalaborwa gate of the Kruger. Price includes breakfast and most of the time we leave too early for breakfast, they pack a delicious one to take with us! Great service!
Sunbird Lodge is very good located near the Phalaborwa gate. The surroundings are beautiful and David was the friendliest host we ever met.
Neat, clean guesthouse and very friendly, helpful owner.
Sunbird is absolutely beautiful - it's a lovely place to stay, and the owner who received us was really friendly and helpful. We asked for breakfast packs, and they were already handed to us the night before, which we greatly appreciated as we wanted to hit the road early. The breakfasts were delicious, fresh and filling. Will definitely use the Lodge again!
The accommodation and reception were both good. We were welcomed and shown to our room. They gave us a map of possible eateries in Phalaborwa. We will definitely stay there again and recommend it to friends.
Dave helped us right away. Check in was quick and efficient. He was able to offer us advice on our requests such as the nearest ATM, grocery store and restaurant. Breakfast was very tasty and quickly prepared.
Now that was a nice place to spend the night. Clean, tidy and safe with very friendly service. Will definitely stay there again.
Would recommend Sunbird Lodge. Very clean and tidy and owners are friendly and willing to help.
Dave is very helpful and obliging. Comfortable accommodation and good breakfast.
Dave and Samatha are wonderful people who make your stay extremely pleasant. The rooms are neat and clean and the garden makes you relax right away.
Very neat and clean, good value for money. Would definitely stay here again!

Every time our accommodation is very comfortable, clean and we are received very friendly and hospitable.
We were kindly received upon our arrival. The room was clean and spacious. The bed provided us with the necessary night's rest. The next morning we enjoyed a delicious breakfast before we left. A definite YES for Sunbird Lodge.
Dave helped us out on a previous visit, when the booking at another lodge was an absolute hoot...and that without a booking.
Dave is an amazing host. Friendly, helpful and very hospitable. Comfortable rooms and delicious breakfast. Beautiful garden.
The staff was extremely helpful and the owners were very hands-on. The grounds which the lodge is situated on, are immaculate! As are the rooms. We will definitely be back.
We had a great stay and received good service. The rooms were nice, spacious and clean.
The host went out of his way to make everything comfortable and easy for us. The room was spacious, clean and much more than we expected. We had a wonderful stay and will definitely stay there again. Thank you very much for a pleasant experience!
The service was friendly and the facilities were clean and tidy. We would definitely stay here again.

Very, very pleasant and very, very nice people.
Nothing is too much trouble for the owners, it's just like being at home!
