Fodor's Expert Review Mpila Camp
Hluhluwe iMfolozi, KwaZulu Natal, South Africa
In the central iMfolozi section of the park, Mpila is reminiscent of some of Kruger's older camps with lodging options that range from basic but fully equipped one-room chalets with en suite bathroom, kitchenette, and deck, to three-bedroom cottages (these come with a cook who will prepare the food you've brought with you), self-catering chalets, and the Safari Tented camp, with two- and four-bed self-catering tents with en suite bathrooms. Three luxurious lodges with resident chef and ranger are also available. Gas is available, but you can only buy curios and sodas at the camp shop, so stock up with groceries before you arrive.
PROS
- free-roaming game
- lovely location
- good value for money compared to other parks up north
CONS
- a bit tired-looking
- watch out for hyenas stealing your braai meat
- little privacy
