Lack of self catering as a dining option The property is huge, it would be humane to invest in a riding lawn mower instead of having someone walking that whole property to mow the lawn!

The staff is very friendly and hospitable. The meals are simple and reasonably priced. Love the location! The rooms are clean and spacious. The property is well maintained. Very relaxing atmosphere overall

The chairs in the room were not that comfortable A cozy Couch to relax inside the room would be great. Would have been nicer if there was a lounger or something more comfortable to sit outside the room. Only powdered milk in the room (Long life milk or even some fresh milk in the room would be better) . Perhaps add 1 or 2 simple meal options to the dinner menu.

Delicious breakfast, beautiful scenery and wonderfully quiet. Washington and Karabo were lovely.

Could use with carpets in the room

The atmosphere

Stayed in October 2023

No TV :( In today's times, a TV is a standard in a room. Taking into consideration the Cricket and Rugby World Cups which we missed :( The other missing item was a Bar Fridge in the room. This hotel is situated in an area that is really hot, so this could have been catered for. Mosquitoes: Ensure you take a good repellent with during your stay.

The service was excellent especially from the gentlemen DC and Yusuf. The latter was simply awesome. The room size was decent. The bathroom was larger than usual. Both kept very clean daily. The pool was good & clean. I only found out at the end of my stay, there's a Clubhouse like area with a pool table. We requested Fish for our Dinner and they humbly obliged. Very well prepared. Breakfast was absolutely great too. Good for just chilling, destressing, swimming and peace.

What a lovely quiet peaceful lodge, the staff were amazing and very tentative.

Stayed in August 2023

I didn't like the tiles throughout the room, it made it even more cold. They do have a heater and heated blankets to make up for that though. No TV, but I mean embrace the nature and all that.

It's a beautiful location as it is surrounded by nature. The breakfast was delicious too!

The chalets were a bit dusty. They need to be regularly dusted, especially because it’s thatch.

The staff was amazing!

Stayed in July 2023

I didn't like the fact that they ran out of stock for our drinks, no TV in the room, and that their breakfast is not a buffet.

I liked the fact that you can get food and drinks throughout the day

As recommendation would be good to get the road tar done.

Our stay at the lodge was made really memorable by the hospitality of the staff. Breakfast and dinner was wonderful. Our room views were amazing. All in all we really enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back in the future and will also recommend the lodge to our friends and family.

The property is in the perfect spot. The African Bush so close to a big city. Close to home yet it feels so far away. The ideal surroundings. Clean Rooms and fantastic staff, in particular Washington and Yusuf. No wifi in the rooms was a major issue though for people who have children to contact. A small tv will be great too, even in the cheapest rooms. Even though being away from the realities of life is great, getting in touch with nature is great too, life is life and guests need to be in contact with their loved ones at any given time, not only in designated areas.

The property was unlike anything i have experienced. The bush away from the hustle and bustle of Joburg. Quaint surroundings. The perfect Getaway.

It is not really accessible for people with disability

I liked the location so much,peace and quiet

Stayed in April 2023

We booked as it was the closest to a venue nearby where we were attending a wedding but it was expensive for what we got. The bedding and towels were old, uncomfortable and in desperate need of replacement. There is no mini fridge in the room - I understand that it is not self catering accommodation but a mini fridge is standard for any hotel room. We were going to a family function at a different lodge one night and had no way to keep our meat and drinks cold. Our request to the lodge to keep it cold for us was denied. Feels like unnecessary policing as we did make use of the restaurant facilities at all times while we were at the lodge.

The staff were friendly and the restaurant food was good. The massages at the spa were very good.

The menu for dinner could be bit more extensive with more options.

The quietness of the place, comfortable beds and very clean rooms. Breakfast was very good and Washington was very hospitable. He and his team are doing a brilliant job.

Very peaceful and beautiful setting. A special big THANK YOU to Washington, who took care of every little detail and made our anniversary celebration and the entire stay truly wonderful. He is so much more than the Frontoffice Manager, he is the Soul of Mokoya Lodge. We also enjoyed the massage facilities offered by Elize. All in all we memorable time. Leni & Bill

What is there not to like?

Wow!! Excellent services rendered. Upon our arrival we were greeted by Yusuf and we felt so welcome. Then it was Karabo and Wellington. Wellington went out of his way to make our stay pleasant, upgrade our room... It's was just worth every cent... Wish I could stay... To management keep it up!!!?

The road to get to the property isn’t necessarily the best to drive on except for high vehicles for example bakkies and suv’s.

If you are on the property it’s very pretty and clean, well looked after. The rooms are in nice distances from everything.
