My fiance and I desperately needed a weekend away from Johannesburg and Kwa Maritane was our first choice. We definitely were not disappointed. The staff were amazing and the food even better!! Will definitely be back!!

We didn't believe that animals would come close to the hotel terrace but it's true ! Service: Compared to Indaba hotel in Jburg, Kwa Maritane staff were helpful, smiling and always attentive to our needs. Even the park rangers were helpful and service oriented. What a refreshing change. Value: We had a time share so it's difficul to comment but... More

We have just returned from a wonderful weekend away at Kwa Maritane. The lodge is excellent value for money and the staff really go out of their way to ensure you have a fabulous break.

Pilanesberg is a 2.5hr drive away from Johannesburg, very convenient for a weekend in between business meetings. This was only my second safari lodge in Africa, so I cannot compare it to many others, but it is not clearly of the same standard as andBeyond (my first experience). The rooms at Kwa Maritane are pretty decent (though a long walk... More

Exceptional lodge with great staff and service, right from the welcome cocktail to the game drive and not forgetting the local braai at dinner on one of the nights. Highly recommended for time away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Special mention should be made on the private game viewing tunnel, excellent idea and Just Perfect.
