Traveller reviews

“Our stay at Makuwa Safari Lodge was unforgettable, filled with warmth, beauty, and exceptional food!”
25 Apr 2025
We celebrated our second wedding anniversary at Makuwa Safari Lodge, and it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. Breakfast was an absolute delight — each morning felt like something out of a dream. Simone prepared the most flavourful, beautifully plated meals with so much love and creativity. From the fresh fruit to the hearty warm dishes, everything was thoughtfully crafted and delicious. It was honestly one of the best lodge breakfasts and dinners we've ever had! The location is simply breathtaking. Nestled in a peaceful, private setting surrounded by nature, the lodge offered the perfect escape from the everyday rush. It’s serene, safe, and filled with those little quiet moments that let you truly relax, reconnect, and breathe. A heartfelt thank you to Simone and Morne for their warm hospitality and attention to detail. As a special surprise for our anniversary, they gifted us a complimentary bottle of sparkling wine, which made the celebration feel even more meaningful. The staff also went above and beyond to make our room feel romantic and welcoming, from chocolates on our pillows to petals on the bed shaped into a heart. Every little touch made us feel celebrated and cared for. We left with full hearts, happy memories, and a deep sense of gratitude. Makuwa Safari Lodge will always hold a special place in our story — we can’t wait to return!

“Excellent stay”
26 Feb 2025
We really enjoyed our stay, the lodge was only about 25 minutes drive to the Kruger gate. The room was lovely and Morne and Simone were excellent hosts. The breakfast and dinner were five star quality, really wonderful food beautifully cooked and presented. We enjoyed the fire in the evening after dinner. Overall excellent value for money and a great stay.

“Amazing!”
