Madikwe Safari Lodge

Madikwe Game Reserve pretty much has the full A-to-Z of animals to spy, thanks to one of Africa’s largest rewilding projects. It’s best experienced at one of Madikwe Safari Lodge’s three dwellings: family-friendly Lelapa, or the honeymoon-ready Kopano and Dithaba. You’ll head out on game drives and bushwalks with passionate guides and leave with a head full of new animal facts. And, you’ll likely see the cast of The Lion King strut and lollop past while soaking in your sun-deck or perched by the pool. Little wild ones will be well looked after, too, playing bug CSI and such in the kids’ club, toasting marshmallows in a boma and getting a tot-tailored bunk-bed turndown.

  

Madikwe Safari Lodge has three separate hideaways set in scenic spots throughout the Madikwe Game Reserve in South Africa’s North West province, by Botswana’s border.

This is the hotel’s second adults-only (over-16s) lodge, with just four romantic suites for intimate stays. Each 100sq m suite has a large private viewing deck with a plunge pool and alfresco shower – Dithaba is built into a hillside in the bush, so it’s likely you’ll see some wild goings-on. The king-size bed looks out over the landscape too, and there’s a lounge area and a bathroom with a walk-in shower, twin sinks and egg-shaped bath tub – also with views of the savannah. All suites have a fireplace, minibar, air-conditioning, mosquito nets, ceiling fans and free WiFi. If booked exclusively, guests of all ages can stay here.
