“Superb”
09 Jan 2025
On the way to Makuwa safari lodge welcomed by a leopard couple we found a true chef in Simone and two decades of safari knowledge in Morne in an amazing place. Lions roaring at the campfire in the evening, delicious dinner and breakfast plus the service of Prince as a personal guide in Kruger.

“Everything was fantastic the food was amazing”

Everything was so fantastic the food was amazing and Simone and Morne could not do enough to ensure we had the perfect holiday.

“Bush treat with good food!”

What a stunning oasis just off Orpen gate road. Staff that go out of their way to assist guests, quick & easy to contact, share stories, connect over tasty meal. There are plenty of 5* lodges in the area. This is authentic, friendly, and good service at an affordable rate.

“Fabulous lodge close to Kruger National Park”
15 Jun 2024
Great location for Orpen Gate at Kruger. Very peaceful location and great staff. The dinner was delicious and they went the extra mile to cater for my vegan diet.

“Wonderful hosts, location, facilities and food”
18 May 2024
All meals were excellent. Imaginative recipes for dinner made for a thoroughly enjoyable culinary experience!

“Beautiful part of the world”

Even has its own wildlife. When we arrived two Zebra brothers where waiting just inside the main gate, had to wait 10 mins for them to move 😀 Food was amazing. Simone is a brilliant cook, tried loads of food i would never order on a menu, delicious! Simone and Morné are great company. Morné, being a ranger for 17yrs knew so much about the wildlife. Well worth a visit. Close to the orpen gate entrance to Kruger Park.
