25 years young for Kwa Maritane bush lodge
Kwa Maritane celebrates 25th birthday
Located in the malaria-free Pilanesberg National Park in South Africa, Kwa Maritane Bush Lodge has recently undergone extensive renovations. General manager Dave Johnson comments "We have taken this opportunity to extend and improve a number of our offerings while maintaining the high standards throughout the lodge to ensure that our guests will continue to enjoy the superior bush experience they have come to expect from Legacy Hotels and Resorts' Kwa Maritane Bush Lodge,"
A visit to this tranquil oasis offers guest the opportunity to capture the spirit of Africa perched on the slopes of an ancient volcano. In redesigning the dining area, the unusual rock formations have been featured to their best advantage. A new terrace has been constructed along the front of the existing restaurant to allow guests to dine under the stars (weather permitting) with stunning views of "the rock", park and watering hole. New decor and state-of-the-art buffet facilities complete the fresh look of our new restaurant. Extending your dining experience, the lodge has created an outdoor cooking area on the edge of the pool deck. All equipment is built-in, gas powered and can be used in all weather conditions.
The Wildlife Department, which has moved to a larger office, has also taken this opportunity to completely revamp its displays and guest offerings. Guides in the department will place greater emphasis on improved educational displays to replace those lost in the fire. These will be unique and will offer more comprehensive information. The department will also have a small cinema where wildlife DVD's will be shown and where presentations and educational lectures can be conducted. Some of the guides have received astronomy training and will be able to provide "Star Gazing" talks with the aid of a newly acquired telescope to enhance your bush experience.
This full service lodge offers all the amenities of a prime resort in the heart of the Pilanesberg National Park, offers 90 en-suite hotel rooms, a restaurant and bar as well of a host of leisure activities to keep the entire family satisfied. Enjoy Big Five game walks and drives, watch the animals at the watering hole from the hide or spend time around one of our two swimming pools while the children enjoy playing on the rock climbing wall, giant chess board or in the playground.
