- Marataba Mountain Lodge
Great discounts at Lush Private Game Reserve in the Pilanesberg Reserve. Great safari deal. Marataba Mountain Lodge Luxury Safari Lodge in the Marakele National Park, Waterberg. 1/19 Location Marakele National Park, Waterberg, Limpopo - 3.5 hours from Johannesburg DESCRIPTION: Marataba Mountain Lodge lies within a 23 000-hectare concession in the eastern sector of the magnificent Marakele National Park, at the foot of the Waterberg Mountains, approximately 3.5-hour drive north of Johannesburg in western Limpopo. Thabazimbi, Rustenburg and Ellisras are all within easy reach. Within a dramatic landscape encompassing vast plains, dense bushveld, winding rivers, deep gorges and majestic mountains, Marataba is an exclusive private concession in the heart of Limpopo's Marakele National Park, a 'place of sanctuary' for Africa's Big Five and a multitude of other animal species including rare antelope such as roan, sable and mountain reedbuck. This malaria-free wilderness is also home to the world's largest breeding colony of the endangered Cape Vulture. Birdlife within the park is prolific with more than 400 species having been recorded, a veritable birder's Eden. Marataba Mountain Lodge stands out by offering both the most luxurious and gorgeous accommodation as well as offering up some of the most beautiful landscapes in the country! The lodge is set on a hillside with truly stunning 180-degree views into Waterfall Valley, an isolated and scenically superb section of the Marakele National Park. Previously specializing in walking safaris (when it was known as Marataba Trails) the lodge has now been repositioned as a conventional safari lodge product (ie 2 game drives offered daily) a change which promises to bring its undoubted charms to a much larger potential market, The good news is that you are now offered in effect the best of both worlds: for guests wanting to enjoy the conventional 2 game drives a day safari recipe, Marataba Mountain Lodge now offers this; however, if you’re still keen on enjoying a walking safari through some of the most spectacular scenery in any of the South African reserves, this is now offered as an extra cost alternative to the morning game drive. With rivers flowing through gorges and grassy plains framed by imposing mountains, these walking trails are an experience to be savoured with the walks taking place in the morning when temperatures are cooler and energy levels higher. The lodge is cleverly hidden on the hillside with 180-degree views into Waterfall Valley. It has a true sense of wilderness, utterly remote and with only 5 rooms. Everything in the lodge reflects the natural bush outside – it is designed to complement and not compete with the landscape. But great attention has been given to ensuring a quality experience. The result is what they term a ‘Scandi-safari’ design which is off the grid – taking its energy solely from the sun’s rays. This is the ideal place if you are looking for a ‘digital detox’ with neither wi-fi nor cell phone reception. However solar power allows camera equipment & phones to be recharged to ensure they are always at the ready to capture another glorious day! All five rooms have spectacular views down into Waterfall Valley, which is particularly magical at sunset.

DESCRIPTION: Buffalo Ridge Safari Lodge reopened in January 2026 following an extensive refurbishment, it now offers a refreshed and elevated safari experience in the malaria-free Madikwe Game Reserve. The lodge features redesigned luxury suites, enhanced dining areas, a revitalised main lodge, and a reimagined boma, all thoughtfully created to complement the surrounding wilderness. The spacious Luxury Suites accommodate two guests in either king or twin configurations and include en-suite bathrooms with freestanding baths, indoor and outdoor showers, air conditioning, ceiling fans, private viewing decks, and in-room coffee machines with stocked minibars. Two family-friendly suites can accommodate up to two rollaway beds, making them ideal for families with children under 12. Game drives at Buffalo Ridge Safari Lodge showcase Madikwe’s diverse landscapes and abundant wildlife, including the Big Five and exceptional birdlife. Evenings are spent enjoying relaxed dining under the stars or in the lantern-lit boma, where local flavours and warm hospitality create a memorable safari atmosphere.Buffalo Ridge Safari Lodge is situated on the Tweedepoort Ridge overlooking the plains and inselbergs of the western section of Madikwe Game Reserve. Buffalo Ridge Safari Lodge is a 16-bed luxury facility designed by Nick Plewman, an acclaimed small lodge designer. The lodge is situated at a prime site in the west of the Madikwe Game Reserve, straddling the Tweedepoort Ridge with expansive views across the northern plains and Inselbergs. The central lodge sits on the slopes of a hill across a ravine, separating it from the chalets. Each of the chalets is positioned on the ridge with expansive views to the north. The other stand-out about Buffalo Ridge is its intimacy and seclusion. With only eight suites in total, there’s a very definite feeling of exclusivity to the lodgings, and as the chalets are built on a separate tier to the main lodge you get a distinctive feeling of having your very own personal suite right in the bush. Each chalet follows this theme of making you feel like a VIP: these thatched suites each have their own private viewing deck. The spacious Luxury Suites each accommodate two guests in either king or twin configurations. Every suite features a generously appointed en-suite bathroom with a freestanding bath, indoor and outdoor showers, air conditioning, ceiling fan, and a private viewing deck overlooking the surrounding wilderness. Each suite also offers an enhanced in-room beverage selection, including a coffee machine and a fully stocked minibar for added comfort and convenience. Two of the Luxury Suites are family-friendly and can accommodate up to two rollaway beds, making them ideal for families with children under the age of 12. These suites comfortably sleep up to four guests and feature the same facilities and amenities as the standard Luxury Suites. EXCELLENT GAME VIEWING The game-viewing at Buffalo Ridge is superb, much like most safari lodges in Madikwe – but what makes Buffalo Ridge different are the rangers. Locally sourced and trained from the community, they show an obvious love for this, their home. The Big Five are all present and accounted for, as well as plains game (zebra and antelope in droves!), and none of them escape the professionalism eye and bush skill of your guides. These rangers – in fact, all the staff – show a keen knowledge of local flora, fauna and history. Whether you want to know more about the elephant herd you just saw or about what the history of the Balete tribe is, you’ll always be able to find an interesting answer, delivered with a smile. As an added bonus, the Madikwe reserve is utterly free from malaria which is a big plus for families especially. Speaking of which, Buffalo Ridge is a lodge where kids are genuinely welcome!
