Fifty Seven Waterberg offers accommodations in Welgevonden Game Reserve. Free WiFi is available. Guests enjoy 1 game drive per day.

The staff were amazing - from the manager right through to every waiter and service staff. The food was incredible. Our game driver and guide was outstanding, so knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. We had a lovely room, although perhaps it might've been good have thatch to be more in touch with the bush. Whilst it was good to have fine dining, my past experience of being in the bush is that it can be nice to have buffet where you're able to experience different foods. The reserve had a lot of rain prior to our arrival, roads were challenging and because it's very rocky terrain with many hills and valleys made it tough to get around. That said, the lodge made every attempt to make the best out of this situation. True to say that 57 Waterberg go above and beyond to give you an optimal experience. They capture this in their Purpose and Values which they live every day.

Located in the Welgevonden Game Reserve, Sediba Luxury Safari Lodge offers big five game drives and a spa and wellness center.

Everything! This lodge is one of the best I have ever stayed in. From the food, to the safaris, to the staff, I have zero complaints. The rooms are amazing and very clean. Special thanks to Nkuli, Nadia, Moyo, Lydia, Martha, and Jan who made my stay extra special. I was welcomed/treated like family and was sad to leave. And Moyo is by far the most knowledgeable ranger/guide I have ever met. Will have to return one day so I can stay longer!

With Welgevonden Game Reserve reachable in 4.4 miles, Sekala Private Game Lodge has accommodations, a restaurant, a garden, a shared lounge and a terrace.

Superb service from a great small team. Welgevonden is the most beautiful reserve I've ever seen and the sightings are spectacular, mostly due to Patrick's deep knowledge of the bush and the animals in it.

With Welgevonden Game Reserve reachable in 1.8 miles, Elephants Crossing provides accommodations, a restaurant, an outdoor swimming pool, a shared lounge and a terrace.

Our experience at Elephants crossing was great: we stayed in the villa which was very clean and beautiful, with a large patio overlooking the bush. I really liked that the lodge is small (max 12-14 guests I think), as we received outstanding service from all the staff and it felt a bit like being in a small community, it was very easy to get to know the other guests. Food is amazing: one of us was vegan and they accomodated perfectly her diet providing tasty and beautifully presented plant-based choices, not to be taken for granted in SA!! We had spectacular game drives throughout the 3 days of our stay with unbelievable sightings: Herbert is a great ranger and made our experience truly magical!

With garden views, Ekuthuleni Lodge is located in Welgevonden Game Reserve and has a restaurant, a shared lounge, bar, garden, year-round outdoor pool and terrace.

This was our best bushveld experience yet. The place is beautiful, the food was fantastic and the staff were so accommodating. In our short stay of two days we saw the big 5 with multiple viewings of lions on the hunt, including lions trying to catch a baby rhino (with no success). Our game ranger, Steven made every minute of the game drives fun with his knowledge of the bushveld and his passion for it. The best game ranger I’ve ever seen. Thank you Ekuthuleni you will definitely see us again!

    We had an amazing luxurious 2-night stay. It was the best stay we have ever had at a game lodge. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel welcome and special. The service is excellent provided by staff who are wonderfully warm and friendly, nothing is too much trouble. The game drives with Wiseman, our guide, delivered new and exciting experiences including the big five. Delicious food at every meal and gorgeous views from stunning private rooms deliver on a quality luxury experience. We will definitely visit again. Highly recommended.

    Magweti is a true magical place within the Private Welgevonden Game Reserve, about 250km north of JoBurg. The location, the people, the lodges and the food all are all on a very high standard, but on a very intimate scale.

    Honestly one of the best game lodges we've stayed at. From the warmth of the staff to the comfiness of the rooms (best bed/ linen ever), there was nothing we didn't love. We will be going back again and again! Because it's a smaller lodge (only 5 rooms) it feels like home. The lodge was very accommodating to us and we couldn't have had a better weekend. Steven, our ranger, was excellent (even in a hair-raising situation with a rhino)!
