I highly recommend Masodini to any traveler! My friend and I stayed for 3 days and had a wonderful time. In fact we wish we could have stayed even more days! First, Sabine is wonderful. She is friendly, attentive and an all around great host. Since it was only the 2 of us staying (and large wedding events ended before... More

I just spent 5 days here in a lovely chalet. Sabine, the manager, is an absolute delight and carefully takes care of the needs of the guests. The breakfast omelets are to die for. The rooms have nice baths with plenty of hot water. This is a very quiet place where there are no surprises but great food, good conversations... More

We've spend three days on Masodini Lodge in January 2013. It was an excellent experience. The drive to the lodge took 6 hours from Jo'burg Airport including a few stops along the road. It's fairly easy to get there. We had a spacious chalet with a major bedroom and another twin bedroom. The room was very cozy, nicely decorated and... More

I arrived at "Masodini" with a severe medical condition. Sabine, the owner, insisted on driving me to the nearest clinic & she stayed with me for 6 hours while I was being tested. This was way beyond the duties & responsibilities of an innkeeper! I highly recommend "Masodini." The food is well prepared & delicious. The chalets are beautiful, roomy... More

We just had one night but wished we could have stayed longer! Went on a lovely sunset game drive! Breakfast was excellent, very good lunch and evening meal even better with the bush babies jumping around! There is so much to do around like visiting Moholoholo rehab centers and Krugerpark . I recommend this place. You will not be disappointed.... More
