This luxury safari lodge offers guests a unique connection to the wilderness and the dramatic landscapes of the Dwarsberg Mountains and surrounding valleys. Several observation decks are dotted across the property, perfect for spotting wildlife or enjoying a glass of bubbly as the sun sets.

Beside a large watering hole is a cosy hide with discrete windows, perfect for watching as families of elephants stop by for a drink. The property also features an observatory with a fully retractable roof and an automatic digital telescope, which allows guests to explore the stunning night skies of the Southern Hemisphere.

The main lodge features a large, split-level infinity swimming pool, a Jacuzzi and a spacious terrace overlooking the valleys. Guests can enjoy a drink at the bar, relax in the spacious and bright lounge area, learn about the area in the cosy library, or enjoy a meal in one of its dining areas, including the outdoor boma.

The spa is on the highest mountainside deck and offers relaxation with a view. It boasts a cold plunge pool on its terrace, an indoor treatment room, sauna and steam room, and a separate massage pavilion, where guests can indulge in a range of treatments while surrounded by nature.

There’s also a well-equipped, air-conditioned gym for those looking to keep up their fitness routine or enjoy a yoga session during their stay.

Guests are accommodated in five separate open-air suites connected by stone footpaths. The one or two-bedroom suites each feature a private, furnished terrace with a swimming pool, an indoor lounge area with a fireplace, a minibar, a Nespresso coffee machine, and a spotter scope for checking out the surroundings.

The two Presidential Suites also boast a dining area with adjoining kitchens, spacious indoor/outdoor bathrooms, dressing rooms, and a poolside Jacuzzi.

Molori Safari Lodge is the epitome of an adventure-filled, yet equally relaxing retreat. It offers an authentic safari experience without compromising on luxury, providing the perfect balance for a memorable getaway with family and friends.

About the area

Molori Safari Lodge is situated within the Madikwe Game Reserve, one of the largest reserves in South Africa. At 400 kilometres northwest of Johannesburg, the reserve borders Botswana and offers breath-taking views over expansive valleys to the imposing Dwarsberg Mountain beyond.

Visitors can spot “The Big Five” – lions, leopards, elephants, rhinos and buffalos – as well as an abundance of other native animals on their twice-daily game drives and guided bush walks. On the property itself, there’s a watering hole often frequented by elephants and guests can take in this spectacular sight from the nearby hide.
