What an unexpected gem of a property. From the pick up at the airport, check in to the all inclusive meals the experience did not disappoint. Our guides Reco and Mudoo made the whole safari experience a once in a lifetime time encounter. We asked for Rhinos and Cheaters and were not disappointed along with the other animals - elephants, lions zebras and giraffes. The staff were always welcoming when we returned with a cold face cloth and drink. The Chefs came and spoke to diners and on the whole a great experience showcased local food. Highly recommend this property for a stay at this part of Greater Kruger National Park.

After a long project in Cape Town, a small group of us ventured over to Moditlo for a little post work decompression getaway. For the two days we were there, we could not have had a better experience - a very nice and accommodating staff, great service, food and drink. After being home for just two days, a return at some point sounds pretty appealing. Yes, the facility was nice, but the safaris were great because of our guide - Jika. The dude has the knowledge, experience, and the jokes. Jokes so good he cracks himself up. He also scored us lots of animal sightings. The rooms, as well as the entire facility, were spotless and well-maintained. I'm not sure about any of the surrounding facilities in the area, but we enjoyed it because it was one of the smaller lodges without a lot of foot traffic and guest noise. The days are pretty structured in order to manage times for safaris, meals and relaxation. Again, we only stayed for two full days. However, there are other sites and activities to see and experience if you're considering a longer stay. Moditlo is situated in the Great Krueger area on a private reserve. We liked this best as it allowed us to see many animals and the area up close. If you stay in Krueger Nat'l Park, it's my understanding that you must stay on the driving paths and you may or may not have many up close animal sightings.

What a beautiful place, all the staff there were so friendly and helpful. The game drive, what a treat. I loved the elephants, especially when they were so close to the van. The coffee stop in the morning was good. Loved the sundowns, great snacks. And Wow the food was excellent. We had our boma evening in the river bed. Tried my 1st Kudu potjie and it was absolutely delicious. If want to treat yourself too a bush experience I would recommend Moditlo River Lodge. Thanks to all the staff for making it’s so good. And Chef Cayla and her team for the delicious meals we had.

Exceptional experience, game drives are out of this world. The food is unbelievably good and the staff go out of their way to make your stay even bettered. Best way to destress and relax for a getaway. The early morning game drives were the best, but let’s not forget the sunset.

Unforgettable Safari Experience at the Moditlo River Lodge! The accommodations and staff were top-notch, from the clean and beautiful lodging to the amenities and dining experience. Erick and Junce made sure we were always taken care of in the bush. There were immersive cultural and dining experiences. Our hosts for the game drives, Rico and Mtu were phenomenal! We always felt safe, saw lot of big game every drive, and learned a lot of about the animals and encounters thanks to these wonderful two! 10/10 would recommend Moditlo for your future safari!

We visited Moditlo for a week to celebrate my sister's 40th birthday, we stayed specifically in the Ukanyi lodge. The lodge is amazing, spacious, luxurious and in a brilliant location. We did two game drives a day, Jika and Caswell were our driver and tracker and made every outing an adventure. We saw the big five within the first couple of days, their dedication to find animals was incredible! During each morning drive we stopped for a 'Bush coffee' (if you're offered one, have it!) and then during each evening drive we were offered G&Ts - all amongst the animals. Those looking after us back at our villa were amazing, our chef, housekeeper and butler were incredibly attentive. The food was amazing, I've never eaten so much good food in a space of a week, you're really looked after! I can't thank everyone involved who made this week so amazing, a truly once in a lifetime experience - I'm sad to leave!
