Mateya Safari Lodge is heralded as one of the most prestigious game lodges of its kind and certainly one of the most exclusive in Southern Africa. Nestled in the rocky outcrop of the Gabbro hills, Mateya offers elegant and sophisticated accommodation. The emphasis here is upon creating an atmosphere of comfort and conviviality that balances sensitively with the natural surroundings. The scenery is breathtakingly beautiful and the game is plentiful.
Location:
Located in the Madikwe Game Reserve in the North West Province, just three and a half hours drive from Johannesburg.
Accommodation and facilities:
The lodge consists of five individually designed, luxury air conditioned thatched suites, each suite perfectly blended with the surroundings and offering uninterrupted views of the waterhole and plains. All have expansive en suite bathrooms with an open air shower and a private pool deck and are adorned with original art works and superb furnishings. Dining is an unforgettable experience, whether taken on the rim-flow pool deck of your suite or in the glass walled main dining room. Alternatively, private dining is available in the Mateya wine cellar, offering a distinctly elegant setting. The lodge also boasts a curio boutique and art gallery and a fully equipped gym and health therapist offering a complete range of full body relaxation therapies.
Activities:
All game-viewing and activities are planned around guest’s individual interests and preferences and include game drives in custom-built 4x4 safari vehicles, informative guided walking safaris with superb bush picnics and bird watching canoe expeditions on the Marico River.
Special Attractions:
To further enhance your visit, Mateya has built up one of the world’s finest collections of art from throughout the continent. Each piece purposefully chosen for the way in which its canvas captivates a vibrant feel for Africa. Proudly, Mateya is home to 21 original paintings by Paul Augustinus and also boasts several exquisite bronze sculptures by Dylan Lewis.
