Madikwe Safari Lodge – Lelapa Lodge 

Lelapa means family, and this lodge has centred everything they do around homely service and is dedicated to smaller guests looking for adventure.

Lelapa Lodge has acquired that rare fine blend of family-friendly luxury. Set in the malaria-free Madikwe Game Reserve, the team has factored in everything you could think of that could keep your children entertained without detracting from the high standard of service and elegant style. The large main pool hosts a number of fun activities, as does the Kids Eco-House, an excellent space where child-minders entertain children with painting and scavenger hunts. At the restaurant not only will you find delicious gourmet food but a dedicated kiddies’ menu focusing on healthier but creative plates.

Children under six years old can enjoy their very own breakfast drives while adults can go animal spotting on twice-daily safari outings or relax with an in-room spa treatment. At night, gather in the lantern-lit boma for traditional braai feasts.
