    The game drives with Ntate Thomas Manyama were thee absolute highlight of my stay. Ntate Thomas is so knowledgeable,hospitable and friendly. I learned so much about the Pilanesberg reserve, its history,the animals and just life. He is a national treasure.

    The Pilansberg is great for Fauna & Flora.We always have good animal & bird sightings. The condition of many of the roads is appalling and not comfortable in a normal sedan vehicle. The Camping facilities at Bakgatla are adequate with good shade but not much grass. However,the Chalet we used was terrible. R10k for three nights - the Aircon didn't work at all(in 37deg heat),the Stove didn't work.The Tap on the sink was literally falling off.The Fridge wasn't very efficient. No Shower and the bath was designed for a midget & it was dirty because the surface was badly stained. One toilet for five people - not good enough for R3k a night.

    Ivory Tree lodge is like an oasis in the bush. A very chilled out place to stay. Great open spaces to lounge and relax. Excellent friendly hotel staff and very knowledgeable game rangers. Overall an amazing experience 😀

    The staff and service were amazing.

    The staff and service were amazing. Always helpful and polite. The manager Karel was also very helpful and went out of his way to please us. He took us on some amazing game drives. The hotel is old and tired and the rooms are dirty. The mats by the bed were filthy and torn as well as the mat in the bathroom which also needed a clean. The food was very average and we were also served left overs on one of the days we were there. Unless there is an upgrade to the premises I cannot see us going back anytime soon

    Once one we were in the sanctuary of the Black Rhino Lodge, all was fantastic. Getting there and back by road was unpleasant. The surrounding areas are poverty stricken and the roads in a poor state. Unforunately, there is no longer an airport in the area.

    Although the roads aren't in the best shape, it helps one to drive slowly, to enjoy the bush and all it has to offer. The "Friends of Pilansberg" try very hard to maintain the roads. The "Bush" takes care of the rest!!

    The accommodation exceeded our expectations. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast, lunch and dinner were tasty and well cared for. Once we had a bbq after arriving from an evening safari: super cozy. The rooms were spacious and very neat. We enjoyed our safaris with super motivated guide: Alex! Thank you Alex for your enthusiasm and knowledge. During the safari we received a well-maintained snack and drink at the sunset. We would definitely recommend this stay and it is really worth staying there!

    Amazing! The hotel itself was lovely and the rooms were perfect…really spacious and clean. Outdoor shower was a really nice feature. The food was lovely and there was plenty of it! you will not go hungry. Our safari driver Sydney was incredible. So knowledgable and made sure we had a such a fun time. We saw 4 out of the big 5 which was amazing. The staff were unbelievably helpful. They couldn’t do enough for you and were so so kind. The spa was also amazing and worth booking into for some treatments.

    The design, location and privacy of these villas is five star. With a heated pool on the most amazing patio overlooking the Pilansberg we were able to relax in complete privacy, even seeing a hippo in the small dam in front of the unit. We also loved that we could walk within the resort (something not really safe to do in other bush villas) and make use of the resorts lively amenities … the restaurant, tennis courts, gym, boma, game drives ect. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back.

    The staff was largely superb, although not everyone speaks fluent English. Breakfast is a high point: each day is different, and dietary restrictions are requested and followed (e.g. one can ask for no beef, no pork, etc.) Some rooms are in separate apartments near the swimming pool. Bathrooms are large w/ large showers. Near Pilansberg Park and Sun City. Extra secure entrance to room w/ locking gate as well as door. Refrigerator and coffee materials in room. Air conditioning.

    It lacked the polish I would expect for the price paid. On the day we arrived there was not enough food, the waiter service was poor. The rooms were large and the structure was spectacular but it looked empty due to the sparse furnishings. As a South African, this was not a cheap destination and I was hoping for more attention to detail from the staff and rooms. Reception staff were excellent and game drives were a great experience.

    Absolutely beautiful, immaculate, the rooms are 5 star, but what sets this lodge apart is the service. So ready to assist in any way and the big smiles and kind hearts of all from front desk to restaurant to cleaning. Tanya our driver was so smart well informed fun and made my whole safari experience something I will never forget. Thank you !! From Kentucky USA.

    The game drives were fantastic as we saw so many animals! The hotel was lovely and met all our expectations. Every room is a separate building so was very quiet and great to get a good nights sleep. The staff were amazing and always went the extra mile. Sunnyboy (chef) and Bongani (game ranger) stood out for making our stay extra special.

    Great location - part of the Pilansberg and very close to Sun City. Beautiful unspoilt bush. The room is large and spacious and clean. comfortable bed and lovely patio to relax on. Awesome that my kids each had a bed to sleep on, not the usual pull-out mattress. Food was great!
