it was our first trip to South Africa last March 2013 and we were recommended by friends to stay at the Impodimo Game lodge. And everything was absolutely amazing! Our rooms felt so in touch with nature with an option to bathe outside fully secluded which our boys loved. My husband,who is very much a "city person", whose first reaction... More

Between 27 & 30 April, 2013, we, as a group of friends, together with our wives, had a very nice vacation at Impodimo Game Lodge, Madikwe Game Reserve, South Africa. The food, view and hospitality were really very amazing, like many other issues. Our game drives made us feel like we were in a world of wonders especially with our... More

We decided to fly in from Joburg airport with Fed Air(first class pilots), who have the most amazing terminal building with lovely garden to wait in. A short flight had us landing on a dirt runway - very exciting, being met by ranger and taken short drive to Main lodge. Everything that has been said by the following review we... More

My husband and I spent 3 days at Impodimo and had probably our best safari experience in South Africa yet. Madikwe is just so different from any other park or game reserve we've visited. Our game driver Patrick and tracker Holiday were very professional with many years of experience and tons of knowledge. They led us to lions with babies... More

Impodimo was the first stop of our trip in August 2012 and we had a fantastic stay. We couldn't fault the accommodation and we had requested a room overlooking the waterhole and were lucky to get one.

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
On a rugged dolomite ridge overlooking a vast African wilderness, you will find a hidden treasure called Impodimo. Taken from the Tswana words Mpho Dimo, Impodimo means a gift from God, and is truly a slice of heaven on earth. Rise in the morning to an African dawn and enjoy an early morning game drive with your dedicated professional ranger. Relax as your ranger guides you through the bush on a custom made open Land Rover, searching out the Big 5 or the smaller secrets of nature. Set out on a foot safari with your armed ranger and learn the secrets of tracking African game or just enjoy the trees, birds and stunning scenery. Return from the excitement of the bush to a sumptuous breakfast or brunch and then relax at the pool or the sala overlooking the waterhole where game may come to quench their thirst. In the afternoon, when the heat of the African sun has diminished and the shadows are longer, head out again on a sundowner safari, where you will stop to watch the sun set on this bushveld paradise and enjoy your favourite sundowner drink. Once the sun has set and darkness descends, set off again for a night safari where the more nocturnal creatures now rule the bush. Return to the lodge where you will be treated to the finest Pan-African cuisine with your hosts in the open air boma, and share your days adventures, while you enjoy a night cap around the fire. Impodimo Game Lodge is set along a rocky ridge commanding stunning vistas of the reserve. It is also located at the source of a natural spring, which provides the lodge with elevated views as well as riverine serenity. The lodge offers dawn and dusk safaris. The safaris are carefully timed to ensure optimal seasonal comfort. Whilst Impodimo has 10 suites, its capacity is 16 guests, each of the suites have been carefully positioned to ensure absolute privacy. Spacious in design, each includes a closed system fireplace, climate control air conditioner, mini bar fridge, tea & coffee making facilities and full en-suite bathroom and outside shower. Your private deck allows uninterrupted views of the Madikwe Game Reserve. ... more   less
