Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Incredible homey feeling centered around the two host couples who manage both front of house and all the drives. Incredible views from rooms and main house. Game drives excellent with great driver and tracker. Had my best sighting of a leopard! Can 100% recommend the bush walk, which felt exciting though safe
Negative: All guests eat around the same table. No problem for us, but good to know ahead of time.

Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The location is amazing, "endless view" across the bushveld, and a sense of real calm and peacefulness. You are really in the midst of the park, it's animals and vegetation, while being treated to outstanding, long, highly informed game drives, and sumptuous accommodation, superb meals, and a very friendly atmosphere. Knowledgeable staff joined in meals, so we really learnt a lot during our stay. A once in a lifetime experience, we felt it was worth the price - for us, well beyond our usual budget, but it was a most memorable time.
Negative: The food was really delicious and beautifully prepared by the cooks. The second choice for supper was a little basic, but if you like fish and Ostrich, you were very well satisfied!

Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: This place is truly special. It feels like a family home, a luxurious one in the middle of the African bush. The interior is truly African and very tasteful. Everything is spotlessly clean. The food is very good. The service excellent. The safari tours (happening twice a day) are well organised and professional. The ranger can literally answer any questions you might have about flora and fauna. Their expertise makes you feel very safe, and the vehicles are in top shape. All in all it could not have been any better. Recommend a stay of at least 4 nights.
Negative: -
Summary: Can’t imagine a better safari lodge

Positive: there is nothing not to like about Makumu. I cannot even put to words how amazing the resort was, as well as the quality of the staff. Kitchen, housekeeping, rangers, spotters, everyone was beyond accomodating and kind. there are 1000 places to stay to do a safari in the Kruger area and we feel SO lucky we found Makumu. It is luxury and quality and you will get an authentic safari experience. we left feeling so sad, as the staff started to feel like family. Truly look no further for a place to stay for incredible views, perfect hospitality, and an authentic safari experience. we will be back!!
Negative: literally nothing
