En-suite stone bathrooms with both shower and bath as well as his and hers basins and dressing room are the epitome of bushveld opulence. The 12 suites each have their own private deck overlooking the sweeping plains and meandering river below. Other facilities include an outside shower, ceiling fan and in-house communication.

Gourmet cuisine with fresh African flavours is served either in the elegantly appointed dining room or outdoors on the dining verandah or, alternatively, under a glorious African sky in the boma. And, as temperatures rise in Limpopo, cool off in our crystal clear pool. The main lodge also boasts a Guest Business Centre for those guests who can't totally escape from the outside world.

Fall asleep listening to the faraway sounds of the African night - the distant roar of a lion, the trumpet of an elephant, the grunt of a hippo ... Guests receive a discreet wake-up call in time for breakfast and the morning game drive or walk, and so a new day's adventure begins. Day excursions to Marakele's Endangered Species Project can be arranged.

Guests are requested to check out by 12h00 on the day of departure.
