Mateya Safari Lodge is one of the more intimate properties within Madikwe Game Reserve, its small number of design-forward suites giving it a distinctly private, boutique character.
Rooms & Table
The Rooms
A small number of spacious, design-forward suites, each with a private plunge pool and wide bush views.
Food & Service
A refined, personalised dining programme suited to the lodge’s small guest count.
Activities
Private game drives across Madikwe’s malaria-free reserve, with flexible timing given the lodge’s low guest density.
Wildlife & Photography
Madikwe’s Big Five and wild dog populations are accessible from the lodge, with the reserve’s low vehicle density supporting quality sightings.
A Photographer's Note
The lodge’s low guest count typically means fewer vehicles at any given sighting, an advantage for photographers wanting unobstructed compositions.
Conservation & Impact
The lodge supports Madikwe’s reserve-wide conservation levy, funding anti-poaching and habitat management across the reserve.
