Matola Private Game Reserve

Absolutely the best breakaway ever!!Breathtaking views and amazing game drives.Friendly staff, clean comfortable accommodation, 5 star meals.A place I can recommend with confidence!!

A great family friendly destination, beautiful bush and friendly proprietors.

This was an amazing experience! My wife, 11 month old daughter and I made an impromptu visit to this beautiful game reserve. We stayed in the honeymoon suite and the service delivered by Theon, his parents (Hendrick and Annaline), the support Staff/guides (Captain, Awie and Sakosa) was impeccable. We initially intended to only stay one night but ultimately stayed three days. The property is beautiful beyond words. (Beware Wharthog burrows and giraffe fence post holes in the ground when you’re walking in the bush - both potential hiking hazards that I was naive to before Theon educated me).This was an experience that we hope to share with our friends and family again in the future. We highly recommend this wonderful experience ❤️

The most amazing and beautiful game reserve yet! The friendliest staff who go out of their way to prepare and amazing experience for you. Went in July for my boyfriend's birthday and they set up an amazing dinner for two and the game drive was highly enjoyable!!Thank you very much, I highly recommend this game reserve!!

Such a lovely place. Me and my wife had our wedding at their new wedding venue. Everything was beyond perfectly done. Food, accommodation and overall experience was just amazing. The people that work there are very very friendly and very helpful. Thank you Matola team for making our dreams come true you guys are champions. I would recommend any and everyday!

What an amazing place. Attended a wedding there and spent an additional night. The staff are wonderful, the food was outstanding and the venue and location are stunning. Well worth a visit. I have attached the view from our lodge.

I can honestly not say enough good things about this establishment. The scenery is exquisite with plenty of wildlife close by. We were greeted by 2 beautiful horses on arrival. Throughout the evening the sound of the bushveld and giraffes in the morning was absolutely amazing. The hospitality was also exceptional. We felt very welcome and enjoyed every moment of our stay. If any complaint I do have is there is simply too much value for money. Honestly I would of been happy to of payed more for such an amazing experience and hospitality. The rooms were also very well kept, clean, neat and practical. 10 out 10 would highly recommend anytime.

Fantastic weekend getaway! This is a family owned and run game reserve and the warm and welcoming Willemse family will go out of their way to make your stay as memorable and special as possible. The food is absolutely delicious, the beds are super comfy and the views are spectacular! Theon, Skosana and Kaptein, you are absolute legends! Thank you sooooooooo much for all your patience and hard work in making my 10 year old son's first ever hunting trip an experience that he will treasure for the rest of his life! We hope to see you again soon!
