A guesthouse in the Mtubatuba area, known to us from its Booking.com listing: a double at R891 a night for two on 24 September 2026, with a guest score of 9.2 from 77 reviews. We did not check for a website and found no statement of who owns it. Mtubatuba is the town for Nyalazi Gate, about 30 km away, which is the shortest way into the iMfolozi section and to Mpila. It is also 56 km from St Lucia if you are combining the park with the coast. Choose it as a cheap southern base; Hluhluwe town suits you better if you plan to spend your days in the northern section.

What the park charges on top
The rate above buys you a bed. Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Park charges its own entry fee for every day you are inside. Here is what that adds up to.
- Park entryR320 per international adult per day at USD 1 = R16.35 (23 Sep 2026), 2025/26 tariff valid to 31 Oct 2026.
- $20per person, per day
Three nights means three days inside, so two adults pay $120 in park fees before anyone pays for a bed.
Ezemvelo's 2025/26 tariff lists no vehicle fee for Hluhluwe-iMfolozi.
Guests at Ezemvelo's own camps and at the private lodge inside the park pay the conservation fee for every day as well; it is not included in the accommodation rates.
