Tracey & Greg Meaker
444 on Taaibos offers a peaceful environment, perfect for people who want to get away from the noise & stress of the big city. It’s a place to unwind & enjoy the calm & tranquility of the bush. A place to get up early & watch the sunrise, to just breathe again! It is not a place for loud music or parties but a retreat for restful getaways. The layout of the house is perfect with all rooms looking onto the pool deck and the bush beyond. The deck is raised to the same level as the rooms and there are ramps & rails for wheelchairs. There is a spacious kitchen, dining & living area. The pool deck has 3 covered areas with benches & chairs as well as the sunbathing area with umbrellas. The bedrooms are light & airy, each with air-conditioning. Two have wet rooms with shower only and two have corner baths and an outdoor shower. Comfortable queen-sized beds in two rooms and single beds in the other two that can be converted to king-sized beds if required. The game on the estate wanders around freely so you are likely to see warthogs, antelopes, mongoose etc., walking past as you enjoy some quiet time on the deck! It really is the perfect place to get away from it all!
Tracey started her career in the tourism industry straight from school in England and worked in retail & business house travel before she joined South African Airways in 1983. During this time she grew her great passion for, and vast knowledge of, South Africa and after 8 years with the airline and 33 visits to South Africa, she decided it was time to emigrate! She was offered a job as Reservations Manager with the prestigious country hotel, Cybele Forest Lodge, between White River & Hazyview and met Greg 6 months after arriving here. Greg grew up in Rhodesia and after his military service in SA he worked in conservation in Namibia followed by a few years overlanding around Southern Africa. In 1989 he started working as a ranger at the world-famous game lodge, Sabi Sabi. They married in 1992, started Indaba Safaris & soon gained an excellent reputation in the industry for their professionalism, knowledge & service. Their current company African Safari Adventures has been running for 10yrs & offers escorted safaris, day tours & airport transfers. They live in Hazyview with 2 of their children & their 8 dogs but also spend a lot of time in Hoedspruit now
There is so much to do in & around Hoedspruit with of course the most popular attractions being the Kruger National Park and the Panorama Route, both within an hours drive. We offer day safaris in our own open vehicles and a selection of day tours in air-conditioned vehicles. On the estate itself you can do bird walks, horse trails, cycle trails, sit at one of the bird hides at one of the dams, do a game drive or just relax at the house There are 2 animal rehabilitation centres, Moholoholo & the Endangered Species Centre, Hoedspruit Reptile Park, Jessica the Hippo, boat cruises on the Blyde Dam, Hlokomela Community Project with their herb garden, hot air ballooning, wine, gin, whisky & beer tasting and a host of other activities. On the first Saturday of every month there is also an excellent local market where you can purchase anything from cakes to cushions! There are numerous excellent restaurants here - Thirsty Giraffe, Hat & Creek, Meridian Blue, Safari Club, Three Bridges, Sleepers - to name but a few and there are 4 centres for shopping & dining There is a 9-hole golf course and there are 2 very good day spas You definitely won't get bored here!
