Doringpoort Lodge is nestled in the unspoilt bush that borders the southern tip of the World renowned Kruger National Park wildlife conservancy. It has its own unique atmosphere with all the luxuries to ensure a comfortable and memorable stay in the bush.
Doringpoort Lodge is a unique establishment within Marloth Park. You are offered a variety of accommodation options from our fully catered Lodge to a variety of luxury self-catering units. We are also able to cater for all of your wedding and function needs. With a variety of true African venues available that may best suit your requirements.
Start or end your day with a relaxing walk along the banks of the Crocodile River just 200m from your accommodation.
Spend time around the fire in your own private BBQ area during your visit, while enjoying the night sounds of nature. You might get some unexpected visitors, as the bush babies rarely can resist a healthy snack in the tree.

The small house we stayed in was a bit small but contained everything we needed, including the kitchen and bathroom with a shower. There was a roofed fireplace nearby with a table, where it was possible to grill.
The room service worked well, and the room was cleaned up every day.
Some pieces in the house looked a bit old., but all was functional. Not much storage for the personal belongings.
We had a great stay!
