Budget Outside the gate Ownership unconfirmed

A country inn near Hazyview, a 10-minute drive from Phabeni Gate by its own account, with budget rooms, superior rooms, garden suites and hillside suites. It calls itself family-friendly but published no age policy, room count or rate on the pages we read. It is outside the park, so you pay the conservation fee on each day you drive in, and in holiday peaks day-visitor quotas apply at the gates. Choose it as a budget base for day trips through Phabeni and Paul Kruger gates; ask for a quote first.

What the park charges on top

The rate above buys you a bed. Kruger National Park charges its own entry fee for every day you are inside. Here is what that adds up to.

Park entryR602 per international adult per day at USD 1 = ZAR 16.65 (6 Oct 2026); R692, about $42, from 1 Nov 2026.
$36per person, per day

Three nights means three days inside, so two adults pay $216 in park fees before anyone pays for a bed.

SANParks charges no vehicle fee for private cars at Kruger.

Almost every private lodge inside Kruger excludes the SANParks conservation fee from its rate, so you pay it on top for each night.
