140 guests' feedbackFriendly staff and such a calm environment. Would recommend this stay 100%!
I chose the place purely based on how close it was to JHB and didn't have high expectations. But once we arrived, the villa we stayed in was absolutely stunning and far exceeded anything we were expecting. The staff are also amazingly friendly and helpful.
Everyone was very friendly and helpful. It is a very unique accommodation that is stylish and yet very close to nature.
Everything was just perfect! From the friendly and welcoming staff, the treatment we got throughout our weekend, the cleanliness of our cottage to the peaceful sounds of the bushes. The ideal weekend away I had in mind when making the reservation.
Stunning and breath taking.
Really had a great time at iKhaya LamaDube Game Lodge. I stayed in a poolside cottage and I promise you it exceeded my expectations, the unit was clean and had all utensils that we need during our stay. The staff was very lovely, kind, and super helpful, They were available to assist 24/7, which I find very convenient. iKhaya recommends activities to do when you are around. However, I feel that even if you just want to stay indoors, it’s still going to be worth it.
The welcome was warm, hot towels and a drink while checking in are offered. The decor of the chalet is modern, clean and well laid out to bring nature inside. Very cute swimming pool and recreation area to relax in the summer.
We had a fantastic weekend. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. The place is clean and beautiful. We would highly recommend a visit.
Very very nice. Would rather stay here before I go to the 4-star etc. places will stay.
I haven't been this impressed with a lodge in a while. Our welcome was incredible with the friendliest staff, refreshment towels and a delicious welcome drink. The lodge is spotless and facilities are well-maintained with stunning furniture and decor. Thank you to the staff, we had a wonderful weekend away.
We went home in the Safari tent which was a nice experience. Didn't need anything and we could hear the night noises especially the Hyenas and Jackals. Friendly staff immediately made you feel welcome. Definitely a gem in the woods.
Was a nice treat weekend. Beautiful place, great service. Felt very special on arrival, was spoiled with drink and friendliness. Everything you need in a place to stay. Enjoyed splash pool in the heat. Would really recommend.
Luxury Forest Villa is exactly what the name says. Perfect romantic getaway. Service was excellent. Received extra special treatment on our wedding anniversary. The unit is very well equipped.
Really a very beautiful, quiet and special place, where your soul finds rest.
This beautifully decorated, luxury self-catering cottage had everything you could need for a great stay. The private pool is great for watching the animals roaming past, and everything is luxurious. Unfortunately, it's in quite a remote part of the park and the recent rains have blocked off the river crossing so you need to leave the park and drive quite a distance to enter into the other parts. The occasional dog barking from a nearby property was a bit of a disturbance to the wonderful bush sounds, but luckily it wasn't all the time. The cottage itself though, is relaxing, luxurious, and set in a beautifully private garden with game regularly walking only metres away from the fence.
It was a nice, peaceful getaway.
The staff was very friendly and helpful upon arriving. We even got cold towers to cool us down from the African heat. The Safari Tent was clean and well furnished. Secluded away from any other units. We really enjoyed going around in the game vehicles and seeing the wildlife in the reserve. Our guard Keanan was very knowledgable.
Very nice stay. Very hospitable people from the moment we stepped in until our visit was over.
Service excellent - friendly - helpful - can't wait to go again.
See stars.
It was absolutely fantastic! From the view of the wildlife to the excellent cleanliness of the unit. 10/10 for the cleanliness! The absolute silence and nature sounds were the perfect escape! The lodge is located close to a restaurant and easily accessible to the rest of the reserve! The facilities are nicely furnished and modern. The place is fantastically set up and laid out. We will definitely book there again. We enjoyed it very much.
Peaceful woodland getaway with clean and comfortable cottage.
Verblyf was absoluut fantasties, die personeel was vriendelik en ongelooflik behulpsaam.
Everything was amazing, from the warm reception to the views. The log cabins are perfectly situated, overlooking a watering hole. The cabin itself is cosy, clean, has everything you need and the staff is just the best! Highly recommend!
Ikhaya Lamadube is a very beautiful place. A place to go for some peace of mind. Everything about that place is up to standard. I was blown away.
From the moment we checked in at reception we were treated kindly. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. So are Gerd and Tienie, the owners. Thank you, you were very kind and helpful. We would recommend Ikhaya Lama Dube anytime. We really enjoyed the animals at the watering hole. The fire and the night sounds in the evenings were the perfect way to forget about the city!
The staff is welcoming and very helpful, we felt at home. The cottage was clean and cosy. The place is breathtaking and perfect for relaxing.
We had a brilliant stay in the safari tent and mostly enjoyed our spacious deck the service was excellent and all our extra little requests were attended to with a smile. The attention to detail is such a pleasure for a self catering establishment and the staff are great.
A very nice and well equipped chalet with everything you need. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there and can definitely recommend iKhaya LamaDube.
The room was clean, well presented, however it was rather small.
Great, we really enjoyed it, except for the pool pump that arrived at 8 o'clock in the evening and disturbed the silence. It's the time to sit outside and listen to the night's forest sounds.
The welcome drink was a lovely touch. The room was beautifully clean. Staff helpful and friendly. We absolutely loved our stay.
See stars.
A quiet place away from the city's noise with very good accommodation.
We were so impressed with the service and cleanliness of the accommodation. We stayed in the tented camp - it provided everything we needed for a luxurious quiet bush retreat. Highly recommended.
A quiet, private and safe place to stay, conveniently close to the city for a getaway. The villa we stayed in was very clean and tidy, very comfortable and nicely furnished. Professional staff, ideal atmosphere created in the place of residence. It is a bonus to sit on the deck or in the pool and watch the wildlife passing by. Can definitely recommend a visit to the lodge.
By far one of the better places I've stayed at. Only 1.5 hours from the city, yet in the most tranquil, beautiful location. Friendly, helpful staff going the extra mile. Would visit again for sure!
Thank you very much for a wonderful weekend with you. Staff are very friendly and the cottage we stayed in was great. Recommend you guys to anyone looking for a weekend getaway. Definitely see you again!
We rested very well. Silence, silence and again silence.
We stayed in the hide-away and were surprised by the beautiful, clean, luxurious unit. It is very private and the reception was fantastic. The unit has everything one needs and more.
We live in JHB and wanted a breakaway from the city noise etc. We searched on LekkeSlaap and came across iKaya LamaDube. What a wonderful place. We were met with such professionalism and grace. We were taken to our SafariTent and a full walkthrough of the place were given. We were blown away by the staff's friendliness and the place of course. I can recommend this place as a great go to if you want to escape the city and go to the bush! Keep up the good work and we will definitely see you again soon!
We were able to really sit back and relax and unwind and would definitely stay there again.
Was a fantastic break between the forest and silence. Staff is friendly.
What a beautiful lodge, the staff are so friendly and helpful. We enjoyed every minute of it. Will definitely be back!
You will see us again soon!
Very calm and friendly service.
Romantic isolated unit that is incredibly clean and tidy. Staff very friendly and always helpful. It's ideal for that romantic getaway with your loved one. The best thing is to sit in the pool with a cold glass and look out at the variety of wildlife walking by.
We enjoyed our stay but the hidden cost disclaimer after our booking was secured came as a surprise. Breakage deposit only refundable after 4 week, please note that with the amount of utensils available to ease your stay no inventory was available to double check. Conservation fees not included in the daily rates. Although the booking was self catering, no mosquito repellant was offered even after asking. Other than the above we enjoyed our stay.
Price paid for the pool side cottage was really worth it. Cleanliness of the place is really on a top notch. Even when the lights went off the Saturday and Sunday, the staff were there to make sure we were fine and still enjoying ourselves. Suggestion for entrance on De Wagendrift Road, etiquette signage is needed, cause we got lost as there was no signage telling were we should go until we were assisted after calling the lodge.
Friendly and helpful service, incredibly beautiful and we really enjoyed the privacy.
Reception was friendly. People are very helpful. The place was cleaned nicely every day. The deck is peaceful and the sunset was picture perfect every night. The shower water was a problem but we were also well assisted with another option. Safe.
Excellent place. I have never seen a place as clean as this one. They created a very nice atmosphere. Excellent.
Lovely, relaxing getaway.
In the Safari Tent it feels like you are somewhere in a remote location in Botswana or Tanzania. The feeling of the establishment and the super friendly staff is superb and out of this world. Cynthia and the rest of the staff is super friendly and kind.
Nice and quiet. Very good customer service. I would recommend it anytime to any couple who wants to enjoy a quiet time in the woods and rest away from the city noise. iKhaya will definitely see us again.
Met all our expectations and will definitely recommend to friends.
We felt spoiled in this beautifully styled unit. Fitted with every possible utensil, a lovely private pool and deck over looking the bush. We were even lucky enough to have a visit from a rhino and her calf. A little private oasis.
It was very pleasant and indeed a nice place to rest.
Wonderful weekend and excellent service. Very neat and clean. Just a pity that the wood they sold was wet. Shower also has water pressure problem.
Very good value for money and the silence allows you to shut off a bit from all the COVID problems. Had a great time.
Thank you very much for making our weekend extra special. This weekend I got engaged to the love of my life and Gerd, Tienie and their friendly staff went out of their way to making our special day more romantic and memorable. We will definitely come back in future! Thank you for playing a role in this special moment for us!
These luxury self-catering villas are our new home-away-from-home. Amazing fine detail in decor and well thought out house plan and location. These villas are private, romantic and furnished with every possible accessory/kitchen utensil you could possibly need. Lovely tables are set for you in your villa - one in your private boma and the other by your private pool. Game can be viewed from the comfort of your porch/swimming pool/bed seeing that there is a water hole only 30 m away. The staff is helpful. Nothing is too much trouble. I would recommend this accommodation to anyone with an open mind.
IKhaya LamaDube Game Lodge - luukse eenheid is pragtig. Wow, wow, wow. Dis was ons 20ste anniversary is ontvang met koue lappie en glas sap by ontvangs. By die eenheid was die bed mooi versier met 'n hartjie en daar is buite twee tafels gedek met rooi en wit en sjampanje op ys. Ons het seker nie eers 2 ure op die stoep gesit nie toe kom daar 'n stuk van omtrent 10 koedoebulle na die watergat reg voor ons stoep. Die plek is super netjies en skoon.
Nice peaceful place to recharge yourself!
Will be able to recommend them.
Stayed in one of the new units with private pool. Service was great and nice and private.
I would recommend iKhaya LamaDube anytime. Everything is there for a nice visit and is super clean, tidy and the detail to make everything special is there, wow. Staff are friendly and helpful and go out of their way to make it as pleasant as possible for you. Will definitely visit again. Tienie, Gerd and team, thank you very much.
The units are very nicely laid out for privacy and relaxation. The staff is friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed the getaway and will definitely go again.
A lodge that will take the extra step for their customers. From the welcome and beautifully decorated room to the fire that was already packed for us, we will definitely visit and recommend this lodge again.
Beautiful place. A lot of effort was put into our stay because it was our wedding anniversary. The staff were incredibly friendly. Very private, romantic and beautiful.
The stay exceeded our expectations. The staff are very professional, extremely neat and very helpful. Would definitely recommend it to people who love the forest.
We would recommend iKhaya LamaDube anytime, it was an experience! Everyone is extremely friendly and helpful and goes out of their way to make it as enjoyable as possible. Everything is super clean and tidy. Will definitely be going there. Tienie and Gerd and team, thank you very much for all the effort you make.
Had fun, the 2 new places under construction are definitely going to be a winner with their own splash pools.
If it's privacy, peace and quiet you're looking for, this is definitely the place to go. Everyone is so friendly and hospitable. Definitely a place we will go again.
What an experience, from arrival to departure. Clean, private, friendly. The special attention, when they heard my wife's birthday, with the opening of the private boma, and more. Thank you very much, we appreciate and see you again.
Second visit here and both times it was awesome. Clean and well maintained units, beautiful views and friendly staff. Units are far enough away from each other to provide privacy. Well worth the price, and they will see us again soon.
We had a very nice relaxing break at iKhaya. Everything was excellent with very friendly and helpful staff.
Truly a neat and peaceful experience. Staff very well trained. Pity for dogs in such a rest camp.
Accommodation was very good; clean and had everything you needed. Private Boma was a treat. Attention to detail for a warm welcome. Throughout our stay small things here and there done by the staff for us was really appreciated. Would definitely recommend it to anyone.
Thank you to everyone at iKhaya LamaDube who made our stay so special. The accommodation is fully equipped, you literally only need to bring your clothes, food and drinks. The rest is already there. Would recommend it anytime.
Very nice and peaceful atmosphere.
The hospitality is outstanding. Very neat and clean. Highly recommended.
From our pool cottage, we spotted giraffes wondering about in the distance. Rabbits can also be seeing in the vicinity.
Helpful and friendly staff. Cabin was clean and had absolutely everything needed. Loved the venue: rustic and beautiful and although we didn't get to meet the owner, Tienie was extremely accommodating and very helpful and friendly. Stunning sunsets and sunrises. Highly recommend. Five stars! Thank you Tienie and staff.
It was a wonderful weekend. We stayed in Safari Tent which was very well appointed. Own private boma was special. Phillip and Ntando made us feel very special. Tienie and Gerd have a beautiful place and we can't wait to go again.
A huge thank you to everyone at Ikhaya LamaDube Game Lodge for your friendly welcome, hospitality, helpfulness, and wonderful stay. We enjoyed it very much and were very spoiled by you and the natural beauty around us. We will definitely be back again.
Spent the weekend there in the cottage, beautiful setup with the private boma kitted out. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, you will definitely see us again!
Was een van ons beste plekke wat ons nog ooit by was. Die plek is pragtig, skoon en so mooi geleë in die bosveld. Ons gaan vir seker weer terug soontoe. Die diens is uit die boonste rakke en mense is ongelooflik vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Love die plek!
This was definitely a weekend that my husband and I could just sit back and relax, the silence was charming. We were warmly received with a glass of orange juice and felt just as welcome. We stayed in a beautiful safari tent and also saw a game drive which was just as exciting. We would definitely go back again anytime, to get out of the city and clear your head
We were welcomed by professional, friendly staff. The unit was made up beautifully for us, and the fire in the private boma was packed and ready for lighting. Our stay was perfectly peaceful. Will definitely be returning in the near future!
We were impressed by the well-trained, friendly staff. Our unit was neat and clean. Can recommend if you are looking for peace and quiet. Well done.
Die personeel is ongelooflik vriendelik en behulpsaam. Die akkommodasie is baie netjies met meer as die nodige. Die boma was 'n aangename verrassing. Ligging is perfek vir 'n vinnige wegbreek uit die stad. Beveel die plekkie vir seker aan.
A very peaceful place with units that are very well equipped, can really only take your food and clothes. The workers were extremely friendly and it was exactly what we wanted. They put a lot of effort into little extras like a fire packed with sticks and grass every day to make it easier for you. Also got a paraffin lamp every day at the boma and a "doom plug" for the mosquitoes (although we didn't need to use it). The access roads may be a problem for flat cars. Really enjoyed and will definitely go there again!
Tienie and Gert, you two and your amazing staff rock! What a beautiful little gem you have in iKhaya. We loved it. Thank you for everything.
Very good customer service. People who really care and make sure you enjoy your stay.
Phillip and his team looked after us excellently this weekend. It was a lovely, relaxing weekend in a beautiful fully equipped log cabin, with all the little treats too. Definitely value for money!
It was a very peaceful and relaxing weekend. The cleanliness of the unit was fantastic, the staff were incredibly friendly.
Very cute room. The semi outside shower was lovely. You find yourself again in the beautiful nature. Staff was very helpful and prepared.
Wonderfully peaceful and quiet away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Service was excellent from the 1st moment.
Dinokeng is only an hour's drive from Pretoria and is ideal for a weekend getaway. iKhaya LamaDube offers comfortable, private accommodation and the wildlife can be viewed from the veranda.
Fantastic place. We stayed in the cottage for 3 nights. Terribly neat and so beautiful. It really feels like you are the only people there. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Would recommend to anyone anytime. Will definitely stay there again.
Very friendly staff, well trained. A lot of effort is made to maintain guests' privacy and also to create a wonderful atmosphere for a special event.
This was one of the most breathtaking experiences and will recommend it to anyone! The people and their service was excellent and it was a great weekend. I want to do it again and again.
We had a very nice stay. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The house is neat and warm. We will definitely stay here again.
From the moment we got there, we were taken care of. Workers I give a 10 out of 10. Will definitely use iKhaya LamaDube again.
Staff very friendly and helpful. The game drives are excellent and the lodge is a great place to unwind and find yourself.
Friendly staff and owners who went out of their way to make us feel welcome! Loved the little extras like the flower arrangements. Very comfortable and private.
Nice break in pleasant surroundings.
We immediately fell in love with our accommodation in the rondavel in nature and the boma was a joy, nice and private, and the fire at night was wonderful! The staff was wonderful, they set us a romantic table. We were speechless! Gerd and Tienie went through so much effort during the game drives, the nature is nice and lush and all the animals were fat and healthy. We'll definitely come stay here again.
Nice place to break away for the weekend!
We stayed in the cottage, reception was warm and welcoming. The owners are very hospitable and willing to assist with any needs required. We went for a Self-drive through the bush all day on the Saturday and afterwards stopped at the local watering hole down the road who serves craft beer brewed on premises. We arrived back at our cottage and the staff had set up the boma for a romantic evening, table set with candles and champagne glasses and fire pit prepped (a very welcomed surprise). Went on the Sunday morning for a game drive with the owners, they are passionate and knowledgeable about the bush. All in all a lovely weekend break.
Staff extremely friendly, welcome drinks as with game drive,s hown to accommodation, very helpful.
From our arrival to our departure we were taken care of. The friendliness of the staff to the owners was incredible and made us feel very welcome. The special things they did for us made us feel so special and would recommend it to any couple looking for a romantic getaway.
We had a great stay. We enjoyed our privacy and the little special things they did for us. Very friendly staff.
It was a wonderful experience, no one bothers you, no noise, in the hart of the bush, very private, neat and a nice place to take a break.
Neat and clean chalet, well equipped. Staff were friendly and owner went out of her way for our overseas guests during the game drive.
What a wonderful place, clean, tidy, peaceful and romantic. Staff very helpful. Reception and game drive were overwhelming! We have been to many places but Ikhaya is really something special. Gert and Tienie go out of their way to make it really special for someone. My husband and I would definitely go again! A thousand thanks!
Excellent location. The personal service provided is top notch. Accommodation was excellent. Prefered the self drive option and saw a lot of wildlife. Saw some of the Big 5. Plan to visit again soon.
We were only there for a short time but the owners are friendly and very helpful. We felt very welcome and the welcome was something special.
Very neat accommodation. Very quiet and tranquil. Stef is very friendly and helpful. Value for money.
Our stay at Ikhaya was excellent! Stunning accommodation, friendly staff, flexible arrangements to meet our needs. The game drive was the best! Tracking down the lions and watching a "kill" was beyond what we expected to see. Thanks to Tienie who shared her passion for the "veld" and animals. At Ikhaya the game drive is highly recommended. It's an experience during which we could appreciate "koffie with a skop", the beauty of nature and the awesome animals of Dinokeng.
It was nice to have silence around us and no kids demanding all our attention. Beautiful place, will definitely go back again and stay longer!
I'm speechless, this place is beautiful and the owner was friendly. I love this place and the staff were friendly, We are definitely going to go back to iKhaya lamadube
Very friendly people, place was clean and neat. I really needed this tranquility.
The experience was awesome, the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff was great. The whole weekend was fantastic and we can highly recommend them.
Best service we have ever received from a place. The effort made is exceptional! Thank you.
Accommodation was immaculately clean and they pay attention to small details. Staff were very friendly and we felt special. Perfect getaway for a nature loving couple.
Wonderful accommodation.
While we didn't see any of the big 5, the stay was really nice and relaxing.
Very peaceful, neat, and safe area and very friendly owner. Will definitely be back.
The log cabin was very comfortable and well equipped, boma and deck ideal, but there were too many trees in the way to be able to see the water hole. However, plenty of wildlife around the camp to enjoy.
It was the best ever. The people went out of their way to pamper us. Everything was so neat, clean and peaceful. I would definitely book there again, and recommend it to others. Thanks again.
We enjoyed our weekend away - it's nice and quiet and the stay is really very comfortable. And actually just an hour from Pretoria. Will definitely go again!
We enjoyed the weekend and got everything we needed.
We got some great rest at this well-equipped log cabin. So peaceful and the game grazing in front of the unit is such a nice surprise. The lapa was great too - we had a great time by the fire every night and we experienced the peace and quiet of the veld, not to mention the starry sky! Gerd and Tiene were lovely and they make you feel at home. I definitely recommend this place.
Lovely and peaceful, wonderful hospitality and perfect to connect with nature again.
See star rating.
Staff went out of their way to make our stay as comfortable as possible.
Great weekend getaway close from home. Beautiful area and lots of game in the area.
We really enjoyed it! One of the best game drives we've ever had! Thank you for the privacy! Everyone had their own boma and I can really recommend it to couples in need of some alone time. Thank you so much!
