Royal Madikwe has found the balance between entertaining international and local guests on a luxury, exclusive scale, investing in local community projects and conserving the natural environment around them. In 1991, farming land took on a new goal, to become safari land for wild animals and this was when Operation Phoenix was conceptualised and enforced.
Over some 7 years, more than 8000 animals were reintroduced into land that had been rehabilitated for nature conservation, and the benefits of this wildlife then affected communities positively too. The wildlife did so well that today.
Come and stay then, in a luxury suite with gracious ensuite baths and showers, king size beds, aircon, mini bar, a fireplace and private plunge pool, all making your adventure into the South African bushveld a fantastical lavish rest.
Kids are never bored when their needs are met with arts and crafts, wildlife explorations, baking, storytelling and African beading. Staff take them off and enlighten them about the biodiversity around them, enthralling them about our dependence on nature.
We can’t applaud Royal Madikwe enough. The food wasn’t 5 star it was 6 star and we couldn’t find any faults in any food! I loved how at every meal time they would set our table in a different space in the lodge depending on the weather that day. Our young daughters got so much attention and drank plenty of pink milkshakes so that was amazing too. Oh, and there was plenty of wildlife too!
