The airy lodges at the Motswari Private Game Reserve feature thatched roofs, each equipped with air conditioning and unrivalled savannah views from large wooden decks. They combine traditional décor with a designer touch and include a lounge and bathrooms with bathtub.

Motswari was one of 4 safari lodges we stayed in during our trip. They were all excellent but the Motswari experience stood out for several reasons. The game drives were exciting and consistently accommodating to the guests' requests, thanks to the knowledgeable and entertaining guidance of Eric and his diligent tracker, Difference. Food was exceptional, ranging from romantic Boma nights to the robust singing entrance delivery of the daily lunch buffet. Grounds were impressive and expertly maintained. Accommodation was outstanding with regard to cleanliness, charm, and comfort. Beautiful, serene and peaceful surroundings. Friendly and attentive staff and service. Not a thing to complain about-- commendable beyond expectation in all aspects.

Featuring mountain views, Thabamati Luxury Tented Camp in Timbavati Game Reserve features accommodation, an outdoor swimming pool, a shared lounge, a terrace and a bar. Both WiFi and private parking are accessible at the lodge free of charge.

The camp is stunning, stylish & comfortable. Rooms are gorgeous! All the staff are so friendly & helpful. The food & hospitality is incredible too. The view over the huge watering hole gives amazing animal spotting: hippos and elephants galore! The game drives were THE BEST. We saw a leopard close-up every day, a pride of lions playing. Incredible! This is a luxury safari without the luxury price.

We had a great time and were a little said to leave. Thank you Sean and Magic for the awesome game drives. We feel very lucky to have gotten you for our time there. Also, a big thank you to Tim and Grace and the rest of the housekeeping staff. Service was great and the food was awesome. We hope to come back again in the future.

Kambaku Lodge is located in the heart of Timbavati Nature Reserve and has a waterhole which attracts members of the Big 5. Each of the rooms and chalets feature African décor and a private patio.

The four-poster beds are surrounded by mosquito nets and the bathrooms contain both a bath and shower. This eco-friendly lodge lights its rooms with lanterns at night, but also has solar operated electric sockets, ceiling fans and free Wi-Fi.

In my honest opinion, everything is great with Kambaku Safari Lodge. Food is excellent and exceeded my expectations, game drives are super worth it, and the guide and tracker will do their upmost to ensure you can see the big 5. And I manage to see them at least twice. Every single staff are really out to try to make your stay as comfortable and memorable as possible. I also like the part when during brunch and dinner, one of the guides will be sitting down with everyone. It's a good way to ask them questions, learn more about the area, their experiences, what are being done to help protect the animals etc Gideon and Eric are among the best guides and tracker. Every time we spotted something, they just know how to position the vehicle to ensure you are in the best position to take pictures. Yes, you will not go wrong visiting this lodge

Guests sleep in traditional African reed and thatch huts created using local Shangaan tribal architecture. Umlani Bushcamp’s huts offers an en suite bathroom with open-air shower, mosquito netting over each bed and crisp white linens. Candle lanterns are used for evening light.

All of the staff, from reception to the chefs, the drivers and rangers were unbelievably friendly, knowledgeable and went out of their way to ensure we’d an exceptional experience, including accommodating dietary needs. The bush walk and tree house stay were really special.

In the heart of the Timbavati Game Reserve, the Simbavati River Lodge offers the chance of a face-to- face encounter with Africa’s incredibly varied wildlife from the lodge’s private viewing decks.

Each morning and evening, Simbavati Lodge offers game drives conducted by experienced rangers and trackers, providing the opportunity to photograph some of the reserve’s incredible array of wildlife that includes the 'big 5' - lions, leopards, rhino, buffalo and elephant.

Felt like a „home away from home“ from the first hello until goodbye. Great team, very nice tents, good food and (most important for this kind of holiday) incredible game drives. We saw a lot of animals and it was very nice that they not just concentrate on the big 5 but also told a lot about the bush, the birds and all the other small parts of nature. thanks again to our competent and very funny ranger Edward and the incredible tracker Nicholus.

Looking for a cabin?

For the active travellers, a chalet is a great mix of the outdoors and the snug inside. Usually fully furnished and self-catered, chalets are typically wooden and in the Alpine region of Europe, but can also be found elsewhere in the world. Characterised by their sloped roofs, chalets can be single units or separate apartments, and are ideal for skiing holidays.
