Would love to go back some day!

We had a wonderful stay at this lodge. Everything was amazing. The food was delicious. The safari rides were unforgettable. The staff was friendly and hospitable. The rooms were comfortable. I was 6 months pregnant when I went and they were able to accommodate to me. Everyone was so kind and thoughtful.

Disappointed........

We had great expectations - accommodation is 5 Star however lack of attention to detail brings this down to 4 Stars. Eg poor quality of shampoo and body lotion, a/c not working etc Food - plentiful but quality is not 5 Star - too salty. They may need to think about changing menu. Ran out of ice-cream and did not get any during our 3 night stay. Drives - morning and evening. We saw the big five - leopard only caught a glimpse of. Spent so much time just watching giraffe drinking water and not moving on to see other things which could not see from the lodge like wild dogs, a 'kill' rhinos etc. The sitings of the animals were staged managed - despite this we did not see anything exciting or exhilarating. Did no see crocodiles etc

Magique

Une réserve, un lodge, des chambres magiques. Nous avons adorés notre séjour au Madikwe Hills. Tous était parfait du lieu au service en passant par la nourriture. Un merci spécial à l'équipe (Ranger + Tracker) pour les safaris. Les chambres sont fabuleuses et offrent une vue extraordinaire sur la nature et sur les animaux (un spectacle permanent). A refaire.

Magical Experience

Great Lodge, beautiful big rooms, amazing location and views, great facilities, amazing service, fantastic rangers and trackers during our game drives.This is by far the most beautiful place and best experience me and my partner have had, and we have stayed at a lot of really nice 5* resorts and hotels including everything from Ritz-Carlton to a couple of Aman an Anantara properties in Asia, so that says a lot about how much we enjoyed this..The only think i think could be better was the food, but I know that everyone else there were very happy with it, so this can be my background in the restaurant industry and my partner being a chef making us a little bit critical :)
