Makuwa Safari Lodge is a bushveld retreat located in the Greater Kruger area on a private game reserve near Orpen Gate of Kruger National Park. The bush bustles with buffalo, plains game and bird activity. Idyllic accommodation in whitewashed houses with thatched roofs and broad patios offers sweeping views of the wilderness and the distant Drakensberg Mountains.
Manicured lawns dotted with acacia, marula and fig trees surround the lodge, while all around the property untouched bushveld provides a perfect habitat for a wealth of predators, mammals and birdlife.
The central communal area is set up for a simple yet stylish dining experience: a casual bar area and patio with a dining table provide the perfect setting for a rustic farm-to-table meal. Makuwa can cater for special occasions on its lawns, or around the boma that sits under massive trees. The rooms have been carefully constructed to ensure a light, airy feel - with plenty of
open spaces and airflow throughout. The whitewashed brick walls and thatched roofs ensure respite from the heat during the searing temperatures of the summer months in Kruger. The décor is minimalist and simple, with the finest white bed linen and towels complementing the monochromatic black and white tiles of the en suite bathrooms in each room, where the bold reds of Persian carpets add a touch of warmth. Glass sliding doors open onto a patio with expansive views across the lawns and beyond to the neighbouring game reserves.
We look forward to welcoming you, your friends and family to Makuwa Safari Lodge - a modern country escape in the heart of the Kruger bushveld.
