The lodge was perfect just what we needed for a few days and our first ever safari. The food had great choice at breakfast and dinner didn’t use it at lunchtime but their menu looked fab. The safari drives we were warned you just never know but it was amazing the drivers worked so hard to get us to see as much as possible. We saw elephant close, lions, zebra, giraffe, jackal,rhinos, hippos and the jewel in the crown a leopard.

First class everything

Everything was just amazing!

Lovely views, plenty wildlife and accomodation has a great set-up. Pathways are clear and paved but make sure to flag if you have mobility constraints sunce hilly at place and some parts more than 10 mins walk to the restaurant. Game drive into the reserve is a must. Friendly and helpful staff. Restaurant served tasty meals. Nothing to fault. Hope to be back in the near future.

The room is big and the staff is very nice. The Game Lodge was an incredible experience.

Excellent service from all staff. The resort was incredibly clean and well maintained. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The safari guides had a wealth of knowledge about the park and wildlife. They could answer every question with confidence and engaged our children in q and a. We really cant speak highly enough of the whole experience.

On safari, we saw so many animals including lions, cheetahs, leopards, elephants, black and white rhinos, giraffes and so much more! Highly recommend.

Clearly one of the better lodges in Pilanesberg, beautifully located and well maintained.
Check in experience was excellent and very friendly and attentive.
This is the Wild, that they struggle to keep the rooms insect-free must not surprise.
It was unfortunate that due to heavy rainfall, all game drives had to exit the park and enter at another gate costing 20 minutes driving extra before game viewing could actually begin.
That turn-down service left all lights on in the evening is so 20th century - this is particularly unfortunate in South Africa in times of load shedding.

Our family of 2x adults and 2x kids aged 14 and 9 stayed for 5 nights in January. We had such a great time - Joseph was a sensational ranger and a character also - managed to find us almost everything obscure we asked about on our last drive. Also Tito / Tato (?) gave a really interesting snake demo - Ive seen a few of these before elsewhere but his was really great and he was very patient afterwards with my kids holding the snakes. Clearly he is passionate about his snakes!
That said, all the staff were pleasant and friendly. The rooms were great. Comfortable, clean albeit somewhat dated. And the buffet food was great, variety and plentiful. Thanks Kwa Maritane - wed love to be back one day!

This was a 70 birthday get away. Sadly I did nothing for the first three nights about the thatch and insects falling on the bed. The third night was impossible with rats sweeping and rat dropping on the bed. Our last night was what we had expected. Food good except for the stale bread and bread rolls. For a quite get away this place should be avoided, uncontrolled kids messed dining badly
