Kruger Park Lodge

The Resort and Its Setting

Kruger Park Lodge is a timeshare resort in Hazyview, a small Mpumalanga town that has grown into one of the main gateways to Kruger National Park. The resort is operated under the Legacy Hotels brand and offers self-catering, holiday-style units aimed at families, couples and groups rather than a hotel-style stay. Owners typically have the flexibility to cook in their unit or head into Hazyview for meals, and the layout follows the usual pattern for this kind of timeshare property: practical, comfortable accommodation built around access to the surrounding bush rather than resort facilities for their own sake.

Hazyview and the Mpumalanga Lowveld

Hazyview's whole reason for being is its position near Kruger National Park, and most visitors staying at Kruger Park Lodge are there to arrange game drives and guided safaris rather than to spend time in town. That said, the town centre itself has shops, restaurants, markets and the everyday services travellers need before or after time in the park. Beyond the Big Five, the area around Hazyview offers the Sabie River for fishing and quieter nature walks, plus a number of scenic routes through the Mpumalanga escarpment with its mountain passes and viewpoints — a good option for a day away from game viewing.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

If you own a week at Kruger Park Lodge and are ready to move it on, or you'd simply like to rent it out for a season, listing it privately on BidMyTimeshare.com is a straightforward owner-to-owner process. You set your own asking price, write your own listing, and interested buyers or renters contact you directly through the platform — there's no commission taken on the sale, just a one-time listing fee to get your week in front of buyers.

Because Kruger Park Lodge is affiliated with Interval International, this is worth highlighting in your listing: buyers who already hold II membership, or who are prepared to join, will understand immediately that the week can be used for exchange as well as straight occupation at the resort. Be upfront that exchange eligibility and any transfer formalities around keeping or re-registering the II membership on the unit are handled separately from the resale itself.

For the resale and transfer process, ownership changes at Kruger Park Lodge go through Legacy Hotels' own owners' association or resort management rather than through BidMyTimeshare.com. Before agreeing a price with a buyer, ask the resort or its management company directly for the current transfer fee, whether a right of first refusal applies to the week, and the latest annual maintenance fee — these figures are set by the resort and can change, so always confirm them in writing rather than relying on older paperwork. A resale buyer should expect to receive the week itself and the usual owner rights at the resort, but should not assume anything beyond what is confirmed in that transfer paperwork, including exchange company affiliation, until it's been verified with Legacy Hotels.

Practical Notes for Buyers and Renters

Renters and exchange guests coming to Kruger Park Lodge are mainly looking for a convenient, no-fuss base from which to do Kruger National Park properly — early pickups for game drives are common, so proximity to the Hazyview area matters more than resort extras. May to September is the dry season and generally the best stretch for wildlife viewing, though the resort and the park both operate year-round. Anyone renting or exchanging in should book ahead, particularly for peak dry-season dates, and arrange park access or guided drives before arrival where possible.
