This lodge deserves all the stars it can get. From the moment we arrived, we were treated with professionalism and friendliness. The staff were exceptional! We loved our room, with the exquisite bath and outdoor shower. The game drives were great and our guide superb. The first night we arrived we were treated with dinner in the boma area which was a real treat. We even experienced rhinos coming to drink water from the bar area during check-in. Hats off to the staff and everyone running Shepards Tree as we will be back!

It was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed and more. Loved the walk in pantry with all the crockery and glassware and it was so nice to have enough of everything. Everything had been thought of. Also to have the splash pool with the waterhole just in front was incredible. Amazing 🤩

Tlou was the ultimate tribal and African experience. A unique offering that goes beyond your expectations! The facility was great! The staff truly aspired to help with everything they could!

Everything’s gorgeous, amazing, wonderful… it was such an amazing experience to stay in lodge. I am very upset to stay a 1 night. All the members were friendly. They made us feel like we stay at home. All the meals are exceptionally delicious. It was well selected menus and we enjoyed experience it a lot. Safari experience was something else. Our ranger is knowledgeable and experienced. Would definitely recommend stay in lush lodge.

Due to a delay on our flight we were later as scheduled and might miss the first game drive, but the staff was so kind to wait for us. Also the location is great, not too far from Johannesburg but far enough to have true wild nature. Food was great and room was excellent, big and comfy.

    Pilansberg is a 3 hour from Johannesburg.

    Pilansberg is a 3 hour from Johannesburg. It is easily accessible however the roads to the Pilansberg are not in great shape. It would be best to take a shuttle than to drive yourself. The park is fantastic with all the animals. We saw many lion, a leopard, many elephants, many rhino and lots more. I highly recommend.

    Pilansberg Game reserve is falling apart, literally.

    Pilansberg Game reserve is falling apart, literally. This will be our last trip and we have been going for 15+jears. The road to the reserve is horrific but worse is the roads in the reserve itself. The "tarred" sections or what's left of it is one pothole after another, not pleasant to drive at all, even at the 40km speed limit in the reserve. Hides are becoming dangerous, falling apart and the toilet facilities at these hides are TERRIBLE! It is sad to see the facilities in the reserve keep declining.

    Pilanesberg has never let us down.

    Pilanesberg has never let us down. Even in heavy rain there is always something if you look hard enough and seeing the park in all weathers and different seasons, with the mountains, green spaces, trees, and dams is such a treat. Love every visit! Fish Eagle lookout is spectacular and the salt lick by the visitor centre usually brings in some animals and/or birds toward the start and end of the day - plus the coffee is good.

    The wildlife in the Pilanesberg is varied and every game drive we went on was well rewarded with good viewing on the plains. Black rhino reserve is quite different and probably better viewing in winter when less undergrowth.

    I was here six years ago. There are much less animals. Looks like they removed hundreds animals to private game drives. It is not Pilinesberg that I saw six years ago. If you don’t want to be upset, choose Kruger.

    Do not book with this host! The host is dishonest as the Hotel Timeshare had no record of our reservation. They just ghosted us and did not respond to any contact, whether through booking.com or via their mobile number provided . If you want to stay here, book directly with Legacy Hotels- Kwa Maritane. Amazing service received from them to assist with our scammed booking.

    Everything was absolutely stunning, truly one of the best hotels we have ever stayed at. We loved the small size of the resort and incredible attention to detail, as well as the amazing customer service from every staff member. The guest rooms were beautifully designed and well equipped. The food was varied and delicious at every meal. The game drives were excellent.

    Love the staff! Everyone is so friendly, from the moment we entered the hotel to the moment we checked out. Very thoughtful people. Restaurant staff are lovely - food was amazing! The safaris are out of this world - our guide, Freedom, was awesome. We saw the Big 4 out of 5 on our safari. And despite coming in winter, the room was incredibly well insulated! Loved it!
