Welcome to Phabeni Gate
Welcome to SleepOver Phabeni, an idyllic retreat nestled less than 2 km from the Phabeni Gate of Kruger National Park (KNP) along the Sabie River. We offer a serene and affordable getaway for nature lovers and safari enthusiasts, providing a perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and close proximity to the untouched beauty of KNP's southern section. This area is renowned for its immediate access to game viewing after leaving Hazyview, thanks to a geological island of gabbro-like basalt that supports sweeter grasses compared to the sourveld, attracting a variety of grazers and browsers despite the sparse vegetation.
