We enjoyed a super luxury holiday at the wonderful resort of the Morukuru Family. The Lodge at the reserve was fantastic. From there we made wonderful game drives and saw the Big Five within a few days. We can really recommend a stay at the Morukuru Family. The surroundigs are spectaculair and the staff is really friendly. Marge and Jan... More

We went to Morukuru Family for the third time since the founding. The first time to the owners house, last 2 returns to the Farmhouse. This time with a large group of friends. Again it was overwhelming. Fantastic to actually complete the big five to see, including the leopard within a very short time. The host, the chef, the butler... More

It was our first time in South-Africa and the Morukuru Family made it an unforgetable time. The rooms were wonderful, the staff was super helpful and the game drives were amazing. We are still missing the hospitality that we felt there, everybody was so kind and wanted us to have the perfect holiday. We came in with a smile on... More

This was our 3rd visit and we still marvelled at the beauty of the bush and were just as excited to see the animals up close. There are 3 lodges of different sizes, furnished to a very high standard, (mattresses, bedlinen and towels are top quality). The outdoor space is also very well thought out providing areas to relax as... More

Travelled as a group of two families of 4, staying in the FarmHouse. Our friends were visiting for the third time, and raved about Morukuru, so our expectations were high. But these expectations were beaten by a big margin. Landed at the little Madikwe airstrip in the Bush, with great excitement. A lovely welcome from our Ranger, Calvin, and on... More

My second stay was even more spectacular than the first. The home, the service, the experience are exceptional. I will be back. We saw the big five in under 2 hours. Our hosts tended to our every need and the food was great.

Stayed there to celebrate a wedding. The building itself it absolutely beautiful: understated luxury. The staff is helpful, incredibly accomodating and the whole experience was soooo relaxing. But considering the price tag, I wouldn't expect anything less to be honest! Swimming pool was great, room with outdoor shower divine, we really had an unforgetable time.
