Lodges in Balule Game Reserve

Beutiful setting and lodge. The service: Great. All of them treat us like royalty! Carol always waited for us after the game drives. Given was a great guide, Veronica, and the others treat us great. The bush tv: incomparable.

The property is beautiful and in the perfect location. In our 3 night say we had visits by Elephants,Bush Buck,Kudu, Hippo,Giraffe, were woken each morning by a family of Baboons and saw Crocodile in the river and Wild Dogs on the other bank. Absolutely fantastic The hosts are amazing and the food was perfect.

Fantastic trackers Themba, Polite and Life who were like magicians conjuring animals from the bush and found us the big5 and more. The camp is very small with just 6 tents which gives it a nice relaxed atmosphere, and the other guests were all lovely. Our tent (no3/Elephant Shrew) was in front of a watering hole which had elephants visiting every day.

If you're seeking an unforgettable escape into the heart of the wild, look no further than Milima. Nestled amidst the untamed beauty of nature, this lodge offers an unparalleled experience that transcends mere accommodation. The accommodation itself is a harmonious blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. We were lucky enough to see all the animals during our game drives. Our guide Thomas and Sean were so knowledgeable and always patient. I would highly recommend this lodge to anyone looking to experience the Big Five! Special mention to Kathlyn who was always available and made sure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable during our stay. The owners Jørgen and Lisbeth have done a fabulous job to allow us to experience this moment in the wild.

The staff made us feel like family. Audrey, Neil, Harduus, everyone was extremely friendly and took excellent care. The food was delicious. Many elephants visited the waterhole during our stay. The game drives are thrilling and the guides very knowledgeable.

I loved the host. Super friendly and very attentive. Paid a lot of attention to our long list of requests. We were lucky enough to see a few animals at a close range very beautiful felt one with nature. The pictures don’t even do justice it’s a must experience in person. The place is quiet and very relaxing… everything was as promised and perfect to our liking.

We absolutely loved everything about our stay at Maroelani! If it were possible to rate higher than 10, we definitely would! The staf was super friendly and thoughtfull. We had the best game drives with our guide Gert, who was very professional and told a lot of interesting facts about the nature and the animals in the reserve. We were surprised with a picknick by sunset for our anniversary, they made our favourite food, prepared a hot tub for us, … everything was absolutely perfect! We were actually sad we had to leave this place.

Everything was perfect. We got a personalized stay. Janus, help us to book 2 big 5 safaris and we were lucky to see all the animals. As well, we got a driver, Given, very good guy who always keep the car clean and a smile on his face. The food was amazing, we got one Ostrich carpaccio, amazing taste. The room was more than perfect. I can not express what a memorable experience we got. PERFECT!
