Oase is located on the banks of the Blyde River near Hoedspruit, in South Africa’s Greater Kruger region. Its location makes it straightforward to arrive by air or road while keeping Kruger National Park, the Blyde River Canyon and the Panorama Route within reach.

Arriving by air

Hoedspruit Airport is approximately 20 minutes from Oase. Regular flights connect Hoedspruit with Johannesburg and Cape Town, allowing guests to fly directly into the region and continue to the lodge by road.

Airport transfers

Transfers between Hoedspruit Airport and Oase can be arranged as part of your stay. Because the airport is close to the lodge, arriving guests can move from their flight to the reserve without a long onward road journey.

Arriving by road

Oase is close to Hoedspruit town and is reached by road through the Lowveld. If you are driving yourself, the lodge team can provide current directions and arrival information before your stay rather than relying on a route copied from an older travel guide.

Combining Oase with Kruger National Park

Oase works well as a base for travellers who want both a private-reserve stay and time in Kruger National Park. Full-day Kruger safaris can be part of the Oase experience, while the lodge’s own 530-hectare reserve offers a different pace with walking, tracking and other activities beyond the traditional game drive.

Exploring beyond Kruger

Hoedspruit also places you within reach of the Blyde River Canyon, the Panorama Route and other Lowveld attractions. That makes Oase particularly useful for guests who want to experience more of the region without changing lodges every few nights.

Planning your arrival

Once your travel dates are confirmed, send the lodge team your flight or road-arrival details. We can help coordinate the final part of the journey and make sure you have the appropriate arrival information before you travel.

The result is a simple arrival into one of South Africa’s best-known safari regions, with the privacy and calm of a riverside lodge as your base for exploring Greater Kruger.
