Most of the meat served was undercooked including chicken. Service Staff is incompetent as many places in South Africa. We have ordered wine one night and waitress just dropped the bottle in out table and left without opening and serving. Then we had to call another waitress to serve it. You need to tell everything and common sense was missing. English of the ranger for the game drives was not perfect and he was not really talkative or giving information unless asked, he was more like , yeah here is an impala but no information. Also to many questions that we have asked, the answer was “I don’t know”. I think it is worth to stretch the budget a bit more to stay in somewhere nicer. ##### Mert Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Zaheer Jan 9, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excellent for big 5 Excellent for bush lovers ##### Zaheer Stayed 1 night in Jan 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tumelo Jan 8, 2021 ##### Tumelo Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jan 5, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 非常に洗練された綺麗なホテルで、シャワーやクーラーなどの設備もかなり良かったです。また、宿泊費に含まれている食事もおいしかったし、ゲームドライブも非常に楽しかったです。 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carl Sep 28, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great new hotel - super rooms We spent a long weekend at this reserve - two adults and a teen. The hotel was lovely - new rooms and well-designed open, communal spaces. We booked two rooms and it was a bonus that they could be made to be interleading. The hotel rooms are exactly that - hotel rooms - and maybe lacking some of the charm of free-standing lodge units but very comfortable and well-appointed. The guide and tracker were friendly and knowledgeable and we enjoyed our game drives. It was great to be able to go off-road to get closer to rhino and cheetah. Whilst this is a big 5 reserve, you do travel the same roads quite a bit but the guide made an effort to vary things up on each drive and to go look for specific animals. The food was nice - and not as "conference-like" as the bigger Ivory Tree Aha resort - but not knock-your-socks-off amazing. The downside of a smaller lodge is slightly less variety and choice - but to me still better than endless buffets. Aha is running some specials where kids stay free. What this meant was that over the long weekend there were lots of noisy children in the pool and running around at the boma dinner. The hotel manager did make a plan for us to go to the quieter pool at the nearby smaller lodge which was very kind of her. Unfortunately though listening to a child play a loud game on a phone all the way through the boma dinner compromised the "peace of the bush" experience. Overall - we would go again. We had a great stay and thought it was good value. ##### Carl Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Rennan May 20, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort Tivemos de trocar as datas da nossa viagem devido à pandemia do Covid-19 e fomos muito bem instruidos e atendidos pela gerente de reservas.

The only downside were the quality of the food and too many over attentive waiters and waitresses who must learn to be not so keen to remove your drink or plate, especially when you or your dining partner are still eating! ##### Antony Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jan 10, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Lugar incrível !

Nossa melhor escolha! ##### Aline Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nathalie Apr 21, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Excellent séjour, belle et grande réserve.

You are treated like family. Room and lodge area is absolutely beautiful and the food was amazing. I will definitely book at Makalali again for my next visit! ##### Brooke Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Mikael Dec 28, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nära naturen och djuren! Du bör ha en 4x4 bil för att ta dig till detta fantastiska hotell. Närmare naturen och djuren kommer man inte, dessa stugor ligger långt ut från all annan bebyggelse. Stugorna helt otroliga men maten var inte till belåtenhet med tanke på priset på detta boende. Snopet att receptionen var stängd när vi till slut kom fram, och vi fick köra runt i skogen en stund till vi plötsligt hittade kocken som kunde hjälpa oss. ##### Mikael Stayed 1 night in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alan Oct 19, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Safarimazing We had an amazing stay, all the staff were extremely friendly and it was amazing to be living in the bush with all of the luxury conveniences in a very clean and organised lodge. Shout out to Lovedeliah (camp host), Stanley (game drive tracker), and Louise (game drive guide). The wifi was very weak around the property but you're in the bush so it was ok to be off the grid for a few days! ##### Alan Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Bruno Aug 14, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Muito legal! A estadia foi realmente maravilhosa! Gostamos do hotel apesar do Safari parecer um grande zoológico! Ficávamos andando em círculos, até que alguém indicava onde está o animal! Vimos todos os Big five, o que foi bem legal! O serviço é bem exclusivo, a comida é excelente, o quarto então, maravilhoso! A única coisa que nos incomodou foi a hora do check out, aonde incluíram uma taxa de quase 500 rands por noite, taxa da qual não fomos informados hora nenhuma. A mesma taxa não foi cobrada de um casal de amigos que saiu horas depois! A diária já era bem cara, realmente a tal taxa foi uma surpresa desagradável! Acho que eles poderiam ser mais claros na chegada! ##### Bruno Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mariana Jan 26, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful place to stay Beautiful facilities, super comfortable room, great staff, food was ok but not a highlight. We got to see most animals from very up close on the safari however most of the time we are just driving thru the bushes, I can’t compare to other areas but I guess it’s normal. Only weird thing is paying a lot for an all inclusive resort and having to pay separately for water :/ ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s1431-pe54c5ba0-0286-11e8-b691-42834b9c48d7-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s527-peda46f90-0286-11e8-b691-42834b9c48d7-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Mariana Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bruno Nov 22, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Bruno Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2017 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Barceló Puerto Vallarta - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Vallarta-Hotels-Barcelo-Puerto-Vallarta-All-Inclusive.h16535.Hotel-Information) > > [Thorn & Feather (Vermaaklikheid)](https://www.expedia.ca/Vermaaklikheid-Hotels-Thorn-Feather.h61102048.Hotel-Information) > > [Krystal Grand Puerto Vallarta All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Vallarta-Hotels-Krystal-Grand-Altitude-Pto-Vallarta-AI.h83084653.Hotel-Information) > > [Mafigeni Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Gravelotte-Hotels-Mafigeni-Safari-Lodge.h3954755.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Inn by Radisson Polokwane](https://www.expedia.ca/Polokwane-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Polokwane.h17771611.Hotel-Information) > > [The Palace of the Lost City at Sun City Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Sun-City-Hotels-The-Palace-Of-The-Lost-City-At-Sun-City-Resort.h392096.Hotel-Information) > > [Windsor Palms Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Windsor-Palms-Resort.h28950888.Hotel-Information) > > [Aquila Private Game Reserve & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Touws-River-Hotels-Aquila-Private-Game-Reserve-Spa.h6347327.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Pacific Rim National Park Reserve](https://www.expedia.ca/Pacific-Rim-National-Park-Reserve-Hotels.0-l6089611-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Puri](https://www.expedia.ca/Puri-Hotels.d6046285.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [B&B Ontario](https://www.expedia.ca/Ontario-Bed-And-Breakfast.d11178-aaBedAndBreakfast.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotels near Los Angeles Union Station](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Union-Station-Hotels.d6156077.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Spa Hotels in Saskatchewan](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Saskatchewan-Spa-Hotel.0-0-d11191-tSpaHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Crowne Plaza Dublin Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Dublin-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Dublin-Airport.h1042443.Hotel-Information) > > [The Jay, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Francisco-Hotels-The-Jay.h11523.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Edison Times Square](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels-Hotel-Edison-Times-Square.h6260.Hotel-Information) > > [Safari Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Osoyoos-Hotels-Safari-Beach-Resort.h88776024.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sutton Place Hotel Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels-The-Sutton-Place-Hotel-Vancouver.h23624.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [flights from macdonald cartier intl airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/yow/flights-from-macdonald-cartier-intl-airport) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Kuching (KCH)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/kch/vancouver-to-kuching) > > [Flights from Ottawa (YOW) to Taoyuan City (TPE)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yow/tpe/ottawa-to-taipei) > > [Flair Airlines](https://www.expedia.ca/Flair-Airlines-Flights.cF8.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Denver (DEN) to Salt Lake City (SLC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/den/slc/denver-to-salt-lake-city) > > [flights from john c munro hamilton intl airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/yhm/flights-from-john-c-munro-hamilton-intl-airport) > > [Flights from London (YXU) to Cancun (CUN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yxu/cun/london-to-cancun) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Nice](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Nice.d180102.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Activities > [Things to do in Markham](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Markham.d10353.Travel-Guide-Activities)
