Thulamela Bed and Breakfast  

Tucked in Hazyview (Mbombela) on the gateway to the Lowveld, this bed and breakfast sits a short drive from Kruger National Park — about 16 km to Phabeni and Numbi Gates. Perry's Bridge Reptile Park and Hazyview Junction Mall are within a few minutes, and Nelspruit (Kruger Mpumalanga Intl.) is roughly 44 km away.

Six air-conditioned rooms mix sleek comfort with local ease — think private balconies or patios and in-room spa tubs/hot tubs. Many rooms include kitchenettes with fridge, stovetop and microwave, Select Comfort beds with Egyptian cotton sheets, minibars and daily housekeeping. The property’s terrace, garden and poolside corners keep the vibe relaxed and slightly edgy.

Soak in the outdoor pool, unwind in the spa and massage room, or fire up the barbecue grills for an alfresco night. Concierge and tour assistance can help book safari or local excursions. There’s a terrace and garden to lounge in, plus on-site laundry and a safe-deposit box for peace of mind.

Free self parking is available onsite, and basic business supports include laundry services and a front-desk safe-deposit box.

Start with a complimentary full breakfast served daily (7:30–9:00) and grab room service during limited hours. A barbecue area on the grounds makes for casual evening meals after a day in the park.
