Mongena Game Lodge

“Great stay”

Great Service & location in Dinokeng reserve. Room was nice and great choice at breakfast Buffet (egg station, fresh fruits) and for dinner. Game drive & sunset boat cruise was super nice.

“Lovely few days stay”

A lovely few days here. Great game drives and accommodating staff when we wanted to change to a sunrise boat safari. Comfy bed. Fridge in room with water supplied. Even saw a cheetah and her cubs!

“Highly recommended for a quick escape into nature”

We had a privilege to stay at Mongena Private Game Lodge for 1 night. The entire property is immaculately clean and well maintained, creating a peaceful and welcoming environment from the moment you arrive. The meals were of excellent quality. Absolute highlight of our experience was the game drives with ranger Trent. His knowledge, passion, and instinct in the bush made our game drives unforgettable. We were fortunate to witness incredible sightings and learn so much along the way. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an authentic and comfortable safari experience with top-notch guiding. Only 1 hour drive from Joburg, consider 2 nights stay, it's definitely worth it.

“Amazing experience, despite mishandling unfortunate activity.”

We were really torn with rating this out of 5. The lodge itself is amazing! Exactly as described, with Zebra and other animals roaming freely around between your rooms.

We were really torn with rating this out of 5. The lodge itself is amazing! Exactly as described, with Zebra and other animals roaming freely around between your rooms. We were fortunate enough to stay in the Honeymoon suite with an all inclusive package which was amazing. The room was huge with its own private balcony. The bar facilities and pool on the grounds were awesome and well kept. The kingfisher restaurant delivered amazing food and even provided us a romantic dining service on our private balcony one evening. We opted for several game drives, the sunset cruise and a bush walk during our stay. The game drives were so much fun we had an amazing ranger Kayleigh who did a superb job and we were fortunate to see so much wildlife on our drives. The sunset cruise was a nice evening however we were not lucky and didn’t see anything besides some birds on our cruise. Luke our Ranger still did his absolute best to ensure we all enjoyed it. The bush walk was where we had a disappointing and contentious time with our stay. We headed out for our bush walk with our ranger Dean and we’re fortunate to find some Rhino. However the weather turned and it started raining so Dean called an end to the bush walk after only 30mins of what is meant to be a 2.5hr activity. We were taken back to the lodge, when our group requested if we could continue as a game drive instead we were told by dean everyone out on game drives were heading back too. This was not the case and the groups on game drives continued for the whole duration. We raised this with staff who offered no compensation or attempt to rectify, just half hearted apologies that felt more of a pay off than sincere. Whilst we can appreciate weather is unpredictable and uncontrollable when paying so much for one of these activities the least that could be done is a partial refund, a drink/food voucher, something. We felt so sorry for the people who had day tripped from Joburg for the bush walk,just to sit in the lobby for 2hrs. Disappointing end to what was an amazing experience.
