Verified reviewexcellent

We really enjoyed the time we had at Madikela Game Lodge. The facilities, the view, the sunrise, the quietness and the wildlife around the cabin was out of this world. We also enjoyed the jacuzzi with the dassies keeping an eye over us. We will definitely go back, thank you for the excellent experience.

Very relaxing stay. Beautiful setting and lovely outdoor area where one can easily spend all day in the Jacuzzi and on the deck reading a good book.
