Accommodation in Madikwe Game Reserve

The lodges are really nice, strategically located in front of a waterhole that attracts various species of animals. The staff was nice and helpful and the food was delicious. All the game drives have been incredibile, we've seen a lot of animals and different landscapes. A special thank you to our ranger James who is very passionate and knowledgeable about the reserve's wildlife and made every single drive an unforgettable experience. I higly recommend.

Impodimo Game Lodge was perfect! We did the all-inclusive option. Everything was streamlined. The cottage was beautiful and had all the amenities. Cottage 4 was right next to a path where elephants walked frequently! All of the staff were lovely. On the game drives we were made as comfortable as possible with blankets and water. Impodimo has both a ranger and a tracker per vehicle, which provided a unique experience. Each game drive also had a stop for a beverage and a little snack.

Our time at Madikwe Safari Lodge was magical, I cannot put in to words how special this holiday was for us. The property was stunning, rooms were beautiful, staff so attentive and friendly and our guide Mike on our game drives was SUPERB! Also, the food is fantastic!! So many options for breakfast, lunch and dinner it was hard to choose each time! We would not hesitate to return to Madikwe Safari Lodge!

Went to Motswiri with my wife to celebrate my 40th birthday From the moment the booking was made, everything was so easy and taken care off. Starting with Tammy at reservations to Bill and Amy and their whole team There is nothing not to like about Motswiri, the food the staff, great coffee. Elliot our range is a true gem of a guide and made our trip extra special. Even though it was not necessary i was spoiled with lots of birthday surprises Thanks all hopefully we can be back soon

Look no further, this is the lodge for your safari experience. Getting to the place from Johannesburg is very easy by car, they are in touch with you in case of any event. The lodge is just wonderful. This is the only safari I have been on but I think this is a very unique place. The place is very beautiful, service is top knotch, you feel at home but also you know you are having a premium stay. What is most unique about the lodge is the waterhole in front as many animals come during the day to drink water and you can witness this súper up close through an underground hide. It’s amazing and completely safe. The other unique aspect of this lodge is your game drive ranger. Damien is just the best. He goes the extra mile so that you see the most exciting sightings, we had so much fun.

Superb place, service, food, staff

What a place! I could honestly go on forever about how amazing Madikwe Hills Private Game Lodge is! We were return travelers and had another truly incredible stay. From stunningly beautiful rooms, wonderful and very friendly staff, absolutely amazing wildlife and delicious food- nothing is short of perfect. We just wish we stayed longer! We will definitely be back!

Staff and facilities are extremely good. Everyone very welcoming and professional. Game drives were brilliant, the team did a fantastic job.

We took a small plane to Madikwe, arranged by Rhulani. We got picked up by our fieldguide, Dean, and brought to our lodge. The drive to our lodge was already a great experience, Dean has extensive knowledge about all the things we saw; from animals - the big ones and the smallest ones - to the plants, minerals and history. All staff was waiting for us to arrive and gave us the warmest welcome we have ever had anywhere. The lodge itself is beautiful, very luxurious and exclusive. Everyday started with small bites, and drinks. The gamedrives, two everyday, were an amazing experience. Dean told us many great stories about interaction between animals, the history of the land and many additional stories about all things in nature. We were very lucky to have him as a guide, not only because of his knowledge but also because he is a very kind, passionate and funny guy. During the gamedrives we made a stop for sundowners or coffee just after sunrise, a very nice additional experience as we got to hear even more stories and have every single question we had answered thoroughly. In the lodge we got taken care of very well, from fantastic food from the lands (different types of game), to luxurious drinks and cocktails. Between the gamedrives you get spoiled with the best food and drinks we could wish for, from lunch to small bites. There is a hide out where animals have access to a watersource, from elephants, giraffes to antilopes. You get to see them in close up from a safe place. The rooms are fantastic and have everything and more you would expect in such a beautiful place. Our room even had a small pool, with a view on the bush where all kinds of animals pass through on their way to the water source. The staff is amazing, from the manager Tom, the owner who was there between the other guests as well, to every single staff member we encountered; very kind, helpful and fun to talk to.

Very nice villa on a great resort with great staff and the most excellent game ranger ever ( Silas). Also good cook. Everyone went out of their way to give you a special experience.
