Amazing location and top class service from Sally and her team. Excellent guides, Vuyani and Sydwell provided us with many great animal sightings and shared their extensive knowledge of the animals and the land.

Chacma is the perfect place from which to explore the big 5 and the broader SA safari experience. The setting is natural and beautiful with meals eaten outside to make the most of the waterhole and potential for wildlife spotting. Between safari rides comfortable rooms, shady spots across the camp and the pool provide the perfect setting for reading and relaxation. With just three rooms at Chacma, you’re guaranteed a much more intimate experience than staying at a bigger location. As a solo traveller the real highlight was the friendly and fun team behind Chacma: Matt, Josh and Charlie are fantastic, passionate guides who guaranteed that each trip out provided memorable, safe experiences while Karen, Lynx and the wider team at Chacma ensured a comfortable stay. You’ll learn so much from this team and they are only too happy to share their knowledge and experience with you. A special place I can’t wait to return to.

What a great stay! We were really satisfied by our stay. Absolutely highlights were the amazing location and the super friendly staff. The Lodge is located next to the river, which gives the opportunity to see a lot of animals. We saw for example some; crocodiles, hippos, babboons and elephants next to the river. Regarding the staff: super friendly, good organized and you feel directly welcome! Not unimportant, the lodge is clean and all needed facilities are there! We would definitely recommend to go here and will go back when we are in the surrounding.

What a lovely lodge. Carol and Nigel were excellent hosts always insuring I was comfortable and well taken care of. My guide Victor thrilled me every day with exciting game drives. I saw the big five as well as a pack of wild dogs!!! The food was five star and the house staff very professional. Pool was very clean as well as the whole facility. It was a relaxing three day stay. Such a peaceful place. I returned rejuvenated. Thank you so much for an experience that was over the top. I recommend this for solo travelers.

Everything exceeded my expectations, The reserve was phenomenal, the lodge and staff were great especially Leanne our game ranger. She made sure she found us the big five and much more in 2 days. The best lodge and reserve I've ever been to, we absolutely loved every minute of it.

    Amazing game drives given by Paul from Maninghi Lodge.

    Amazing game drives given by Paul from Maninghi Lodge. He is the most knowledgable guide we have ever had. His passion and love for the bush is infectious! We thoroughly enjoyed our drives with him, and he was a large part of what made our stay so great!
