Sediba Luxury Safari Lodge

Everything was perfect from the moment you step in you can forget everything and relax. And amazing food from the chef.

Almost perfect. The accommodation suites around the Rock Lodge are wonderful - our suite was bigger than the average 2 bedroom apartment in Sydney. All amenities including a hot tub and visiting monkeys. Unfortunately friends at the Mountain Lodge were disappointed - the pool was half empty, the shared areas were not clean and the suites were disappointing compared to those around the Rock Lodge and not quite 'luxury'. However, the food was delicious and plentiful, the game drives morning and night were wonderful although we froze one evening as our guide forgot blankets. The evening drinks two of the 3 nights were average, just beer and chips but the last night was magnificent. Staff are wonderful, the guides were excellent, we saw the big 5 and more, including a cheetah mum and her 3 babies. Only downside was patchy wifi and the internal phone system not working meant we got stuck in our suite being under explicit instructions not to walk to the main lodge due to a roaming leopard in the neighbourhood - no way to contact the office for a buggy ride. Also the stunning doors to the suite got stuck and we couldn't get out in time for a game drive, fortunately they came to look for us. The pool area is lovely, the spa excellent and there's even a gym. Overall magnificent with just a few tweaks and maintenance required. Definitely recommend.

We had a wonderful night's stay at Sediba, hosted by Nadia and the lovely team. Excellent, faultless hospitality, the food was excellent, with generous portions - spacious and very comfortable accommodation, every little detail was taken care of! Thank you so much for hosting us - it was a real treat!

This was our visit to the Welgevonden Reserve and we all had high expiations.... but overall the lodge and reserve didn't live up to our expiations. The best thing was an abundance of Rhino and the scenery was amazing, but the reserve didn't really deliver on the game viewing front. For the lodge.... there was a number of little things that all added up to a lower score than they perhaps deserve based on our stay. Just quickly, the bed was like a rock and very squeaky with any movement. The room overall was dated (even with what looks like recent updates), but clean and well presented. The staff were friendly, but the lunch and dinner meals were average and the local wild life was a nuisance during breakfast - but the breakfast was good. There didn't seem to be enough variety in dining locations as all bar 1 meal was severed in the same place which got a bit boring after 3 days. To avoid the 4 of us being put on a game viewer with 6 other people which would have been a bit cramped, we had to book a private vehicle. We did only ask for the private vehicle for 1 day, and were given the second day for free, which was great and thank you for that. The guides lacked any real sort of interaction with guests and didn't provide any sort of detailed information about the reserve. We generally have a much better experience on game drives where the guide interacts better. To some up, the whole experience has some downsides, and was average.

Short 2 night game reserve and lodge experience with an excellent guide and wonderful food. Rooms exceptionally beautiful with one’s own patio and pool. It’s was hot and the air conditioning worked well. Outstanding food.

We had an absolutely amazing weekend at Sediba...AGAIN!! They went above and beyond to cater to our needs, especially our 2 children. Our guide was so invested in their well being and teaching many new things to them, what a pleasure!! They rooms are HUGE and their hospitality is next level!!!! We will definitely come again!

My husband and I thoroughly loved our stay at the Sediba Rock Lodge. We had such a spacious and beautifully-designed suite. All rooms have lovely views and it really is the kind of lodge where you really can plan to enjoy the bush from your suite. The staff were all lovely and welcoming. The food was phenomenal. I will be booking a trip in the next months for sure.

We had wonderful days at sediba. We were overwhelmed by the whole property. Staff was amazing and made our stay to an unforgettable experience for our family. We saw all animals. Our guide was great to give to a wonderful experience. Thank you

Great surroundings and game sighting. Lodge staff were all attentive I Recommend this lodge and will go back again. Special food requests were not an issue Didn’t find the leopard, hopefully will find on my next trip
