Taus Private Member Suites at Matla Lodge

The lodge was closed for renovations, so we were accommodated at their Private Member Suites (Matla Lodge) in a lovely large chalet. Only 5 chalets at the lodge, so it had a very exclusive feel. Great outdoor area with pool and where we had a braai dinner overlooking the waterhole ( two leopards came to visit! ). The main building was beautifully furnished. Staff were lovely, and we had an amazing guide, James, so knowledgeable and good fun.did the very best sunset/morning drinks that we had during our 3 weeks touring in SA!!! Madikwe is a brilliant reserve for wildlife, fantastic game viewing, it will not disappoint.

Some of the meat served at dinner/lunch was really not good. The chef explained that they were trying a new supplier, I hope that has been addressed as it was disappointing.

Tau Lodge stay

Staff were very friendly and willing to assist with everything we wanted. The General Manager went out of his way to make us feel welcome. The game ranger was very knowledgeable.

The buffet food were not warm by the time it was served. The plated food was excellent. Only normal coffee was for free, but coffees like cuppacino and latte's were charged extra.

The Tau Game Lodge is a shoe in for a bucket list.

Everything - We saw 4 of the big 5, ranger and rest of the staff, facilities, food, and great weather; the surprise gift for our wedding anniversary reflects Taus commitment to clients. Thank you

The lodges are really nice, strategically located in front of a waterhole that attracts various species of animals. The staff was nice and helpful and the food was delicious. All the game drives have been incredibile, we've seen a lot of animals and different landscapes. A special thank you to our ranger James who is very passionate and knowledgeable about the reserve's wildlife and made every single drive an unforgettable experience. I higly recommend.
