About Us

Basil and Riëtte, passionate wildlife enthusiasts with an eye for luxury, made their dream a reality at Foxy Crocodile Bush Lodge and Safaris, where the serene bush and upscale comfort merge seamlessly. Driven by a desire to offer an unmatched, exclusive retreat, they transitioned “from the boardroom to the bush,” establishing an intimate lodge that blends modern luxury with nature’s raw beauty.

With each private villa thoughtfully designed, Foxy Crocodile Bush Lodge offers the ultimate sanctuary for couples to unwind and reconnect. Whether guests prefer self-catering or personalized catering options, the accommodations reflect an artful attention to detail, setting the perfect stage for a romantic escape in one of the world’s most treasured wildlife settings.

Located on the banks of the famous Crocodile River, with sweeping views of the Kruger National Park, guests can indulge in stargazing, hear hippos and lions at night, or savour time in private pools and bomas while surrounded by nature’s chorus. For a truly immersive experience, join us on safari for a closer encounter with Kruger’s magnificent wildlife. Here, Basil and Riëtte welcome guests to share in their love for the African wilderness and enjoy an unforgettable stay at their “perfect fit” lodge.

Discover Your Personal Sanctuary at Foxy Crocodile Bush Lodge & Safari

Perhaps it’s our exceptional location—set on the Crocodile River’s edge, with sweeping views into the legendary Kruger National Park. Or maybe it’s our spacious, private villas, designed to immerse you fully in the surrounding beauty, where the only sounds are the rhythms of the bush.

Here, you can witness nature’s wonders up close—watching local wildlife move undisturbed from your patio by day, and by night, feel the warmth of your private boma fire as lions and hyenas call out in the distance.

Our dedicated service, exquisite cuisine, and unforgettable business-class guided safaris in Kruger Park are just the beginning. For many of our guests, a stay at Foxy Crocodile Bush Lodge feels like coming home. It’s an escape from the demands of the world—a chance to breathe, unwind, and live in each moment.
