OVERVIEW ON ETALI SAFARI LODGE IN MADIKWE
Out of the heart of the spectacular Madikwe Game Reserve, embraced by pristine bushveld nurtured by Mother Africa’s rich red soil, Etali Safari Lodge rises to meet you with lavish hospitality. Built in harmony with nature under the vibrant African sun, Etali is an exclusive, intimate haven, where body and soul are rejuvenated in surroundings created by people who understand luxury. You’ll find the accommodation at Etali Safari Lodge sheer bliss in any one of our eight luxurious air-conditioned suites, each set apart for total privacy in its own bushveld domain. The mix of cool and earthy colours in the decor is a peaceful contrast to the unsurpassed beauty of the sweet-thorn Acacia trees outside. Cooling off in the splendid outdoor whirlpool, sipping a cocktail as you watch the breathtaking African sunset on your own deck is the ultimate indulgence.
Nothing beats a long, lingering shower taken in our inside/outside showers with only a bird or little antelope as audience. Second to that may be to soak away in our partner bath and enjoy a relaxing bath therapy prepared by our therapist. Big comfortable beds with fine crisp linen promise an unforgettable night’s sleep beneath the thatched roof. Every day in the bush brings a new experience, as nature reveals her wealth of beauty. Enjoy the exciting unpredictability of an early-morning game drive with an expert ranger whose hawk-eyes will spot memorable moments …a leopard sitting on a rock licking his paws …the black rhino with attitude …the watchful matriarch elephant, bigger than you ever imagined …a pride of lions relaxing in the shade …grazing zebras forming patterns in the grass …the ‘painted’ wild dogs in their den …giraffes, the lookout towers of the bush. Madikwe has a vast diversity of birds with over 300 species recorded so far perhaps you’ll be the one who adds another to the list. If you prefer, a sunset game drive is the best time to enjoy rush hour at the water hole.
