The Five Villas
of Jamala Madikwe

"Over the years, we have visited many Game Lodges in South and East Africa. We stayed in Jamala Madikwe for three nights at the end of January and found it to be one of the best, if not the best we have stayed in. The mix of first class traditional African style lodges combined with fine dining and outstanding hospitality made it an experience of a lifetime. The attention to detail throughout was amazing and we were made to feel very special and a part of the family. The game drives were fantastic and in addition to the animals, it is a birder’s paradise. Rodney and Nico were outstanding hosts and we would have no hesitation in recommending Jamala Madikwe to others. After experiencing Jamala Madikwe, it will be very difficult to stay at any other Game Lodge."

JAMALA MADIKWE lodge should not be a 'once in a lifetime' experience. It's more of how can I come back here over and over again. It's truly an out of this world lodge and the highest standard in luxury and hospitality. From its' exceptional 5 star service and cuisine, to the beautifully designed and decorated accommodations (aka an exceptionally large villa) where no detail has been spared. Rodney, Nico and their staff welcome guests as friends and they provide this beautiful experience where you'll also see elephants, lions and rhinos to name a few. JAMALA is truly an unforgettable and out of this world place!

What can I say? This place was just amazing. The lodge and rooms are just beautiful. The staff was top notch and the game drives were wonderful. Rodney and Nico were hosts extraordinaire! I have been on safari in multiple countries and on multiple occasions. This lodge was by far the best. I highly recommend and we will definitely return.
