The chalet was comfortable though not as luxurious as we expected from the rather high charges. However, the young man who runs the Pilansberg Centre restaurant and shop must be highly commended.

I am reasonably picky when it comes to accommodation, but decided to to try the Bakgatla chalets since our group was focused on wildlife and trying to limit unnecessary costs. It turned out just fine, as Bakgatla offers all of the essentials. It has a small shop, a large pool, and the staff was even prepared to provide breakfast packs... More

The 5 executive safari tents at Bakgatla camp in the Pilanesberg game reserve are private (not situated close to each other, all facing the bush), quite spacious and comfortable. The fridge was bigger than expected, there were also some mugs, wine glasses, water glasses and a wine bottle opener. A few tea bags, coffee and powdered milk was available, as... More
