Very beautiful area set overlooking a lake. We really enjoyed the impala walking around the property and the trails. Beautiful swimming pool but we didn’t swim due to weather. We also enjoyed the free breakfast buffet. WiFi in the room was spotty.

Maguga Lodge
Awesome location, nice accommodation with easy check-in and assistance. Only negative is the fact that you cannot get close to accommodation with vehicle for unpacking and loading if you are on a long travel as was the case with us. Certainly a lodge to be recommended. Overall experience 8/10 - view is fantastic from the lodge, rooms are really comfortable and clean although a little tight with space and no unpacking of clothing cupboards. WiFi could'nt connect.

Great place to relax, lovely views and friendly and helpful staff. Good Food. Take your own drinking water. Just note there is no signage from Jeppes Reef to Maguga Lodge. Take a GPS otherwise you will be taken on the scenic route on a very bad route.

wrong information
Nice place, however, we have had to move to another Lodge as we did not get in the room we booked the conditions as described in the booking site: NO kitchenette, NO refrigerator, NO stove top, NO microwave... just bed, shower, AC and flat tv. Then we were said "we are sorry, that information isn't ours, that's the responsibility of the Internet guys". Ohhhhh

Schöne Anlage
Sehr schöne Anlage, toller Ausblick. Herzlicher Empfang von freundlichem Personal. Schönes Häuschen. Personal im Restaurant und Essen so lala. Bei der Ankunft ist uns ein Süssgetränk runter gefallen und ausgelaufen. Als wir einen Putzlappen verlangten, versicherte man uns, dass wir das nicht machen müssen und sofort jemand komme um das zu reinigen. Es kam leider niemand.

Geht so, jedoch gute Lage mit tollem Blick
Schöne Lage am Stausee, jedoch wirkt die Lodge etwas abgenutzt. Zudem sind es manchmal die kleinen Dinge, welche dem Personal nicht auffallen, wie z.B. den Pool reinigen etc.
