Jaci’s Safari Lodge
On the edge of the Marico River in the heart of the Madikwe Game Reserve you will find Jaci’s Safari Lodge. Established in 2000, Jaci's Safari Lodge , assures you of an authentic african safari experience to be treasured. Jaci's Safari Lodge features eight luxurious rooms, each with a large mosaic bath (big enough for two to share!), outdoor "bush" shower and private deck, from which to watch warthogs rolling in the mud or tree squirrels darting through the foliage.
The main lounge, with its views out across a stream, is where brunch and high tea are served. For those in need of a little refreshment after a long day of game viewing, the loft bar offers guests another space in which to unwind.
For chilly evenings the main lounge has both a large fireplace where you can pull up a chair and warm yourself, and a circular fire pit, around which friends and family gather to enjoy good conversation.
All rooms are equipped with underfloor heating to ensure that you are comfortable during the chilly winter months, and air conditioning and a ceiling fan to keep you cool during sunburnt summer days.
With thatch roofs, low stone walls and canvas panels that roll up, the spacious rooms really let the outside in, making for a unique African safari experience from the comfort of your bed.
Jaci's Safari Lodge has been decorated with vibrant colours and African textures, and features a central lounge with couches that call on you to sprawl out with a good book and ice cold drink. Slowly melt time away while watching the diverse birdlife that busy themselves around this peaceful Madikwe lodge.
All rooms are doubles, but at Jaci’s Safari Lodge we understand that families have special needs. To enhance everybody’s bush experience, we can set up stretcher beds in the room for your children.
For families that would like to spend time together, our exclusive family suites are a great option. The suites come with their own guides and game drive vehicles, as well as a private plunge pool and at night you can choose to dine with other guests at the lodge or have your own private dinner.
Safari Suite
For families looking for a more intimate bush experience, the well-appointed Safari Suite is the perfect venue. This suite can sleep up to four adults and four children, and includes all the features of Jaci’s Safari Lodge.
Guests staying at the Safari Suite have their own private splash pool, flanked by a deck and loungers on which to soak up the sunshine, as well as a small lounge in which to relax after a long day in the bush.
Nare Suite
The Nare Suite is an exclusive bush retreat, named after the resident buffalo bull who frequents the waterhole in front of it, that can accommodate up to six guests at one time.
The suite comes equipped with open plan bathrooms, each kitted with a handmade rock bath and outdoor safari shower. The upstairs loft, which has its own toilet, is ideal for children. The suite also has a wooden viewing deck which overlooks the waterhole, on which you can kick back and let the game come to you.
Each suite has a private swimming pool, as well as a private game vehicle and professional guide to ensure that you have a bush breakaway that you will remember for years to come.
In addition, the lounge and outdoor dining area is equipped with a self-contained kitchen, where our chefs can prepare meals for you in privacy, should you so desire.
