There is a mystical place at the foot of the Waterberg Mountains on the ancient trade route through southern Africa, from the mighty tower of "Great Zimbabwe", across the raging Limpopo River and past sweeping plains teeming with game. In this hidden place, discover Marataba, epitomising all that is Africa. This luxurious game lodge reflects Africa's ancient wisdom and culture, the glorious forms and colour presenting a vibrant haven at the epicentre of modern design. Enter a sanctuary of mystery in harmony with the energy of nature and the environment, built of indigenous stone, sand and soil, enhanced by murmuring waters and vast vistas through glass walls. Inspired by the discovery of primeval ruins, Marataba embraces both the contemporary and the ancient in an exciting union of innovative architecture, design and technology, paying tribute to, and confirming, the concept of the African Renaissance. Lulled by the heartbeat of the bushveld, awed by towering mountains, enthralled by the abundance of wildlife, secure and sensually nurtured in the indulgent atmosphere, live your dreams of safari at Marataba, a place where the plains touch the mountains.

The recommended check-in time at Marataba is around mid-day. Host superb luncheon is served between 12h30 and 14h00 and thereafter the opportunity to indulge - perhaps an afternoon siesta in your luxurious suite or lazing around the pool or simply absorbing the tranquil atmosphere of the African bush. High Tea is followed by an exhilarating Game Drive or Walk with an experienced guide, with time for a quiet cocktail on return to the Lodge before being seated for dinner between seven-thirty and eight. Fall asleep listening to the faraway sounds of the African night - the distant roar of a lion, the trumpet of an elephant, the grunt of a hippo ... Guests receive a discreet wake-up call in time for breakfast and the morning game drive or walk, and so a new day's adventure begins. Day excursions to Marakele's Endangered Species Project can be arranged.
