    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 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.

    All staff were friendly, facilities were clean, modern and comfortable. The elephants come right up to the hotel where you can watch them in the watering hole while having breakfast at the dining area or whole having a drink at the bar. The food was delicious apart from the dessert. Small kids could not go on the sunrise and sunset game drive however there is a kids game drive at 10am which is lovely. We saw lions, elephants, hippos, giraffe and lots of bucks on the kids game drive.

    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.

    Location is great- directly located at the edge from Pilanesberg National Park. They had a waterhole close to the pool and we were lucky enough to see 2 rhinos on our first day. Our safari guide Lou was very friendly and helpful. The game drives (safari) are included in the price (one in the morning the other one in the afternoon). Roooms were spacious and had a huge bed, with nice view. Housekeeping did a great job keeping everything clean.

    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.

    The breakfast was on par with most hotels, guest houses. I enjoyed the peacefulness and no rushing of all things. Game drives were well organised and informative. The park was a pleasure to drive through even if we did not see some animals we would have liked to see. The staff we all very helpful and willing to go the extra mile.

    The way that the rooms are set up is really stunning - you get all of the benefits of a hotel without feeling any of the pressure or presence of people. The staff are so friendly and helpful, everywhere we looked there was someone with a smile looking to make sure you were having a good time.

    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!
