Five Luxury Suites
Lush, Organic and
Undeniably Gourgeous
The five two-sleeper
chalets are modern elegance while still capturing the sense of craft
'Out of Africa.' Each has a king-sized bed, a fully-stocked minibar, a
freestanding bath, en-suite and outdoor showers, and a shaded veranda
elevated to take advantage of the bush views.
Mbazo Safari Lodge is a simple extension of the natural environment
that surrounds it — lush, organic, and undeniably gorgeous.
One of the five suites features a separate children's room with its own
en-suite bathroom (including an outdoor shower). This area is divided
from the main bedroom, providing parents (and children) with their own
space.
Luxury King Rooms
- Luxury King Rooms featuring king beds and an en-suite
bathroom with a Bath and Shower plus an outside shower.
- The rates are on a full board basis and Include 2 Game
drives per day.
- Max Guests: 4 (Max 2 adults )
- Children: 0 - 5 years stay free,
- 6 - 11 years pay 50% of the sharing rate
Safari With Panache
Suites may appear 'down to earth', but they are far from
it. Every convenience has been provided, and each includes a shaded
deck for guests to enjoy.
The Family Suite includes a children's en-suite bedroom —
just like home, but better! The resort welcomes guests of all ages.

Every Meal is a Delicious
And Memorable Celebration
Dining, which is as much a part of your safari experience as the safari
itself, provides you with the gourmet Big Five: Safari halt. Breakfast.
Lunch. Tea in the afternoon. Dinner. To give you a memorable experience
of this location, our chefs give contemporary meals a local twist.
Dining becomes its own discovery when paired with top Cape Wines.
There's also something to be said for the setting, with every seat in
the bungalow being the best in the bungalow.

The weather
The average maximum temperature ranges from 21°C/70°F
in July to 35°C/95°F in January, with the lowest
average minimum temperature happening in July.
The region is semi-arid, with an average annual rainfall of 500mm
(20in), the most of which falls during the summer months (December
– February)
Rain is usually in the form of thundershowers, with a downpour that
lasts no more than a few minutes.
Located
Mbazo Safari Lodge is located on Black Rhino, a privately controlled
2100ha part of the Pilanesberg National Park, South Africa.
Best Time to Visit
The animals in Pilanesberg National Park are
non-migratory, as a result, rather than changing with the seasons, the
safari experience continues to evolve throughout the year.
The optimal time to go birdwatching is from October to April.
Can the Whole Lodge be
Booked?
Absolutely! The intimate lodging is inspired by the Red-Billed Buffalo
Weaver. This bird has been observed in small family groups or in large
flocks, thus you as a discerned guest can book the lodge as a couple,
family or large flock, capable to serve up to 10 callers.
Is the Lodge Family Friendly?
Definitely! The resort welcomes guests of all ages.
There's also the Eco Garden's children's amusement and education area
— the hub of fun and games.
Malaria Free Lodge

Our setting provides us an advantage in the healing stakes: we're in a
tranquil hideaway surrounded by the boundless green of the Pilanesberg
Crater — the color of wellbeing. There are in-suite spa
therapies and yoga mats available, and you can keep the doors open in
perfect seclusion, enabling the soundtrack of birdsong to stream in.
This sensation of well-being isn't restricted to massages and sun
salutations; healthful food, luxurious accommodations, and personalized
service round out the experience.

A Once-In-A-Lifetime Safari Adventure
There's no better place to celebrate your occasion than with a
once-in-a-lifetime adventure that will provide you and your partner or
friends with an unforgettable experience – and a Mbazo Safari
is at the top of the bucket list.
Private dinners, private lodging, customized experiences, and
leisure... we'll make it all you want it to be - and more, with a few
surprises thrown in for good measure. All you have to do is send out
invitations and pack your luggage, and we'll take care of the rest.
With only five full-service lodges on this 2100ha privately managed
reserve, guests can expect a very personal safari experience. Being out
here on your own, exploring the huge wilderness of mountains, plains,
and the Pilanesberg crater, is humbling.
You'll get up close and personal with some of Africa's most spectacular
animals.

Admire the beauty and richness of our natural heritage as we embark on
National Environment Month this June. With almost 10 percent of the
world's bird, fish, and plant species, and an equally impressive
presence of mammal and reptile species, South Africa stands as a beacon
of biodiversity on the global stage.
Our ecosystems play a vital role in sustaining life itself. They are
the guardians of our water, purifiers of our air, and custodians of our
soil. They recycle precious nutrients, offer resources that shape the
very fabric of our civilization and propel our economies forward, and
provide sustenance for our minds, bodies, and souls. The undeniable
truth is that the environment and its intricate ecosystems are
irreplaceable treasures that hold the key to our future.
At Mbazo Lodge, we embrace the responsibility to safeguard our
ecosystems. Our commitment to environmental conservation is interwoven
into the fabric of our lodge. Every step we take is infused with
eco-conscious practices, ensuring that our presence has a minimal
impact on this delicate balance.
We invite you to experience the beauty of nature at Mbazo Lodge and
discover the profound connection that binds us to our Earth.
