Mhondoro Safari Lodge & Villa

Mhondoro Safari Lodge is a luxurious, 5-star property in the malaria-free, ‘Big 5’ Welgevonden Game Reserve in the Waterberg (Limpopo province, South Africa). Welgevonden encompasses 35 000 hectares and is an easy, 2h45-minute drive or a 50-minute flight from Johannesburg. Mhondoro features spectacular views and luxury accommodation, fine dining cuisine and passionate hospitality and service. Mhondoro is family-owned by Dutch nationals who both have a passion for African wildlife from which the desire was born to create a special place where nature may be preserved for future generations.

Guests can expect varied terrain, breath-taking landscapes and a diverse natural habitat featuring the ‘Big 5’, including a large white rhino population due to the fact that the reserve has never seen a poaching incident! Unique features at Mhondoro include a photographic game viewing hide at a waterhole, which is connected with the Main Lodge by a 65-metre long tunnel, and a custom-built star deck with a telescope, to offer stargazing evenings on clear nights. Mhondoro is also equipped with a heated salt water swimming pool, a fully equipped gym & sauna, and an incredible spa.

Mhondoro is the ideal destination for families, as the reserve is 100% malaria free and there are many age-specific activities on offer. However, this is also the perfect destination for honeymooners or anyone looking for a romantic getaway with a honeymoon suite and special offerings at the spa, not to mention private dining.

The villa at Mhondoro also beckons. This spectacular facility sleeps 6 adults and comes complete with its own gym, yoga room, heated pool and personal chef, butler and guide & vehicle.
