About Meerkat Manor

Located in Komatipoort just 10km from the Kruger entrance, Meerkat Manor is a highly-rated guesthouse offering air-conditioned rooms, a relaxing garden with a pool, and reliable solar power to ensure an uninterrupted stay.

Meerkat Manor is a well-established and highly-rated guesthouse located in the border town of Komatipoort, making it an excellent base camp for exploring the southern reaches of Kruger National Park via the nearby Crocodile Bridge Gate.

The property offers a variety of impeccably clean room types (from singles to family rooms), all featuring air-conditioning, en-suite bathrooms, and tea/coffee stations. One of its standout features for South African travel is its full solar power system, meaning guests are completely shielded from load-shedding (power outages).

It strikes a great balance for travelers who want more comfort than a backpacker hostel but still want to maintain a strict budget. While it doesn't have an on-site restaurant, guests have access to lovely garden barbecue (braai) facilities and are within a short drive of local Komatipoort restaurants.
