Marataba Mountain Lodge

Marataba Mountain Lodge offers seekers a soulful safari adventure, a place to balance alone time and meaningful connections with others who share this approach to life. This remote retreat overlooks the breath-taking Waterfall Valley, with wide-angle vistas of the Waterberg escarpment.

Fully solar powered, five private Luxury Rooms blend into the environment, and offer a king-sized bed, fireplace, en-suite rain shower, and shaded viewing deck. On hotter days, guests can enjoy the guest pool at the main lodge. The spa sala offers relaxing treatments and is the perfect filler between safari adventures.

Marataba is a privately managed section of the malaria-free Marakele National Park. Its wildlife includes the Big Five and abundant bird species, including the largest colony of endangered Cape vultures in the world. Rare plant species of yellowwood and cedar trees, ancient cycads, and fern trees flourish in the park. Enjoy game drives with professional field guides, bush walks, morning and sunset water safaris, and bush dinners and boma dinners filled with conversation.
