The Makanyane
Safari Lodge is situated on private land
within the magnificent 75,000 hectare malaria-free Madikwe
Game Reserve. Makanyane, which lies hidden in lush riverside
forest, offers unforgettable wildlife experiences, exquisite
accommodation and cuisine as well as outstanding personal
service. The
Makanyane lodge consists
of a beautiful main building and eight stunning suites,
which lie hidden in the lush forest, offering spectacular
views over the languid Marico River.
Accommodation at Makanyane Safari
Lodge
A stroll along the shady path winding
through the riverine forest will bring you to your romantic
and secluded Makanyane suite. The glass walled bedroom
suites allow uninterrupted views of the river and the
surrounding bush. The open-fronted lounge with its private
sundeck is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the
sights and sounds of the bush. Makanyane En-suite bathrooms
have under-floor heating as well as indoor and outdoor
showers. The Makanyane suites have fireplaces, overhead fans and
are fully air-conditioned and heated. The rooms also
have a telephone, hot beverage making facilities, mini
safe and a bar fridge. The well equipped Makanyane gym and bush spa is just
the place to work up an appetite, or to simply pamper
yourself. Tucked away in the forest, this air-conditioned
facility has all that you need for a gentle workout
or more strenuous exercise. Alternatively, treat yourself
to massage or aromatherapy from Makanyane' s onsite
masseuse.
Attractions & Activities
at Makanyane Safari Lodge
Makanyane Rustic hides
have been placed in certain idyllic locations. One of
these hides overlooks a waterhole hidden deep in the
bush, a favourite place for animals and birds to drink.
Another looks over the vast plains, providing observers
with an ever-changing view of animals moving across
the breathtaking landscape. Those reluctant to surrender
to the luxury of their Makanyane suite can continue their African
experience by sleeping out under a velvet canopy pierced
with uncountable stars. To allow Makanyane guests to
experience the ambience of the bush at night, beds will
be made up on the upper deck of a hide hidden deep in
the bush, next to a waterhole.
Traveling through 75,000 hectares of the magnificent
Madikwe Game Reserve, your Makanyane ranger will share
a wealth of knowledge with you, from the fascinating
private life of the dung beetle to the intricacies of
the wild dog's social system. To get even closer to
your surroundings, game walks are offered in place of,
or in addition to, the game drives. Armed and experienced
rangers will lead you along game paths, in the footsteps
of the animals, allowing you to experience the thrill
of walking through this wild environment.
