What an unforgettable experience at Motswari. We had the absolute pleasure of staying at Motswari for three nights, and it was pure bliss. The sights and sounds allow for a perfect escape, while making you fall in love with the beautiful wild outdoors. We thoroughly enjoyed our morning and afternoon game drives, we spotted the Big 5 on the very first day and a host of other wildlife. Our guide and tracker were both friendly and informative (shout-out to Lola and Lot), which made it an overall wholesome experience.
Food: The food was delicious, balanced and generous.
Service: The service was best in class, friendly and helpful staff, they know you by name!
Accommodation: Inviting, comfortable and a touch of Africa in every possible way.
Highly recommend!!! You will love it!

I cannot even describe how unbelievable this experience was. Of course the game drives were unbelievable. Jeremy and Henry were our guides and beyond knowledgeable and friendly. The rooms were decadent, outdoor patios with showers, sunken tubs, antiques, art. The grounds were much the same. The standout even more than anything else was the food. Chef John created meals you don't find in destination restaurants. The entire staff was unbelievable and attention to detail was evident everywhere. They even folded my pajamas when they cleaned my room. ❤️❤️ Didn't want to leave. The African Safari experience you dream about

An amazing place. I stayed there for 3 nights as part of my honeymoon. The safari drives were amazing! We saw each of the Big 5 several times. The Lodge itself, was brilliant. Comfortable rooms, incredible staff, and great food. My wife and I stayed in the giraffe's nest for one night as well and it really was a once in a lifetime experience. I highly recommend doing it!

Stayed here for a few nights in September. I would describe this place as comfortable and rustic. The game reserves pretty much all follow the same format with some variations. There two drives a day and early morning one and an evening one. They both take a few hours and allow you to try to see a variety of animals. The food was excellent and the facilities are nice. You have to be escorted after dark around the facility. I would wish there was either fitness facilities or trail for walking. There is not much room for that since it's out in the bush.

We had the best time with the Motswari group. All of the staff are so kind and welcoming and the food is incredible! It’s quite amazing what they’re able to cook that far out in the bush. For our drives out into the park we had Jeremy and Hendry as a guide and tracker team and they too did such a great job showing us all we could see. We’ll definitely come back if we’re able to. Also thank you to John and Musa for such a great lodging and food experience.
