Accommodation codes

Kruger accommodation codes explained

Every SANParks unit has a short code like CK6P, BD2V, or GC6D. The complete catalogue, decoded.

The pattern

  1. Type letters — what kind of unit it is (CK = campsite, BD = bungalow, GC = guest cottage, etc.).
  2. Capacity number — how many people the unit sleeps.
  3. Feature suffix — optional letters after the number: P (powered), D (disabled-accessible), V (view), U (upper floor). See the suffix table below.

SANParks doesn't publish one master glossary, and specific unit descriptions vary between camps — always confirm the exact unit on sanparks.org before you book.

Suffix quick-reference

These letters appear after the capacity number and stack — so BD2DV would be a 2-person disabled-accessible bungalow with a view.

PPowered — mains electricity on-site
DDisabled-accessible / wheelchair-friendly
VView — bush or river-facing outlook
