ABOUT


Makanyane provides a unique private holiday experience, the ideal place to come together with family and friends to enjoy being together or to celebrate a special occasion. Avoid set routines and re-invent schedules, here you can experience an exceptional, exclusive private safari. As well as having unrestricted access to the whole of the malaria-free Madikwe Game Reserve, Makanyane is situated on over 1500 hectares of private land. Dramatically located on the edge of a ravine, the main lodge overlooks a stream-fed waterhole frequently visited by game.

Under the sweeping thatched roof supported by massive ancient Leadwood trunks, the spacious lounge and dining areas open out onto a wide wooden outdoor deck, hanging over the ravine and waterhole below. A well-stocked bar as well as an outside lounge and dining area are spread across the decks, shaded by overhanging trees and wide umbrellas. The main lodge also has a curio shop, a library area, an extensive wine cellar and an upstairs den. Free WiFi and internet access are available.

Shaded by riverside forest, the thatched and fully air-conditioned suites are secluded and private, each with overhead fans and fireplaces. The wrap-around glass-walled bedroom allows uninterrupted views of the Marico River while the wide folding doors of the bathroom can be opened to the surrounding bush. The spectacular bathrooms have a romantic free-standing roll-top bath as well as indoor and outdoor showers. Each suite has a fully-stocked fridge, a coffee and tea station, a safe and a telephone. Other amenities include bathrobes, hair dryers, insect repellent and sun lotion, as well as Makanyane’s signature scented shampoo, conditioner, body lotion and handmade soap.
