Affordable Safari Lodge Accommodation

Surprisingly Affordable Safari Lodge Accommodation With Nearly Everything Included

If you were thinking that affordable safari lodge accommodation can be judged only by the rates that the lodges charge, you are mistaken.  You start spending money the moment you leave home and to ascertain whether the perceived value claims are justified, you have to calculate the costs incurred throughout the value chain.  Of course, the very first cost incurred is your travelling expenses to reach your safari lodge, so its location is very important too.

Location as a Cost Factor

Our affordable safari lodge is off to a good start on this score, because our luxury accommodation is only:

• 200 km from Johannesburg
• 150 km from both Pretoria and Polokwane
• 190 km from O.R. Tambo International Airport
• 180 km from Middelburg
• 36 km from Modimolle, which has its own airfield

Time is money and you save both if you do not have to travel for hours to reach your holiday destination, while you also save in other, more intangible areas like the risk factor of being on the roads for too long.  Our location halfway between Pretoria and Polokwane is in a malaria-free area.

What is Included in the Rate and What is Not

The advertised rates are one thing, but affordable safari lodge accommodation is about more than that initial Rand value and we offer superb value if you keep in mind that we include all of the following in our rate, unlike many other safari lodges:

• No hidden costs: both VAT and your Conservation Fee are already included
• Five-star accommodation in luxury suites, replete with overhead fans, heaters, hairdryers, a mini bar, an in-room safe, en-suite bathrooms, private decks and in-room dining option
• A welcome drink and a fruit plate upon arrival
• Late-afternoon canapés
• Two game drives per day
• A delectable five-course Table D'hôte dinner
• A full breakfast
• Early morning tea and coffee

Considering that you do not pay a cent extra for any of the above, it certainly puts our competitive rates into perspective and demonstrates our superior value offering.

The Extra Cost Options

In fact, at our affordable safari lodge accommodation, you only pay extra for services and extras that are, well, extra, and not the ones that ought to be standard.  We offer a variety of extras for guests that request them, also at very competitive rates:

• Silhouette shooting
• Guided walking tours, accompanied by a qualified and experienced trials guide
• Croquet
• African spa treatments in the comfort of your room
• Laundry and valet services
• Transfer services to and from our lodge (including private charter collections and drop-offs)

A Priceless Experience

You cannot put a price on an unforgettable Bushveld experience, so it is doubly pleasing that we put such a modest price on it, courtesy of our affordable safari lodge accommodation that goes the extra mile to surprise you.  A sound example is our luxury tented accommodation, which we have developed into a remarkable accommodation experience, melding for the first time all the advantages of camping and luxury five-star living into one unique concept.

Spacious, thatched, en-suite tents are privately situated on Nature's doorstep with only the wildlife as witness when you make use of the outside showers for two.  There are six tented villages within walking distance from the main lodge and the pathways are lantern-lit at night.  These luxury tents are equipped to the exact same standards as our luxury suites, but with even more privacy and even more breathtaking Bushveld views.  It really puts the cherry on the top of what is already remarkably affordable safari lodge accommodation.
