My wife Sarah and I are frequent visitors to Africa for safaris, and we thought we would take a chance on Welgevonden Reserve and Sekala Private Game Lodge. We were met at the park gate by Patrick, our guide for out stay, and with a welcome drink in hand we started the drive to the lodge. Patrick was quick to answer questions and even quicker to spot animals.

We had the privilege of getting to know Evah, Grace, and Francinah at the lodge, and over the course of 6 nights it felt like we were leaving friends when we had to depart. the meals were fantastic, if not a little over generous at times, and everything  was catered for - including getting us water bottles for the cooler nights. 

We sat on the balcony of the main lodge that overlooks the small waterhole just outside the safety fence and saw elephants, rhinos, warthogs, plus a variety of antelope. The views from the lodge are spectacular.

The reserve itself is beautiful. Rolling hills, plenty of natural water, and open spaces that cater to plenty of animals and provide great viewing opportunities. The ability to stop on morning drives for a coffee is great, as is a sundowner on the evening drive. When the sun goes down the spotlight comes out, and that creates a very memorable way to see the reserve.

Patrick is a great guide. Informative but not pushy, loves to share a laugh, and a very good driver as well. 

We liked Sekala so much that we cut a 4 night stay at another lodge short so we could come back and stay a further 2 nights. 

You definitely won't be disappointed with Sekala.

Great Lodge: Better Staff

We had a lovely 3 night stay at Sekala. The staff and service was excellent, and our ranger Patrick was brilliant. We had amazing sightings and were well looked after. A very memorable trip. 

Two things they need to fix and upgrade:

The beds: they were too hard/flat and incredibly uncomfortable. We didn't sleep very well at all. 

They also need to upgrade the pool lounger cushions that are tatty and faded, they also need more pool loungers and another umbrella

Thank you

Everything was excellent. I never write reviews, but Sekala deserves a big applause. The staff felt like family. Services were splendid, and the game drives were awesome. We saw so many animals, the big 5 and much more. We loved every minute of our stay. Everything was spotless, and the meals were great. But especially the lovely, caring staff are the ones who made our stay the best ever!

Unforgettable

We had a plesant stay at Sekala lodge, the staff were welcoming and very kind, the food was exceptional and the place offered a beautiful escape as discribed on their website. We were happy with thier services 

Great stay

Our 3 days at Sekala were perfect in every ways!
All the team members were just so nice, it was like being part of a big family. 
Our ranger Patrick was the best, we had such special moments with him in the bush. 
Tanks you so much to you all

Perfect 3 days

It was the highlight of our South Africa trip! Beautiful lodge and great park.
Patrik is an excellent guide with great humor and knowledge.
The staff is very friendly and attentive.
We enjoyed the 3 days very much!

Great lodge!

We enjoyed a wonderful stay at Sekala Lodge with our extended family of 8 adults and 6(!) children. We had the whole lodge to ourselves. Because of the age of the children they could not go on the regular drives with us leading to a split diner arrangement at 17:30 for kiddies and accompanying adults and the regular diner at 20h for the ones that went on the evening drives.  All this was taken care of by the kitchen staff + setting a wonderful family Christmas lunch for all of us on the 25nd of December.
We loved seeing the bush babies leaving the thatched roof of the veranda/outside terrace in the evening to go forage in the nearby trees! 

Happy Christmas at Sekala Lodge

A beautiful Lodge hidden away in the peacefulness of the Bush. We stayed in the Villa with our own private Lounge & Pool. The Villa was tastefully decorated & very clean. I must just add that we had to ask for the pool to be cleaned, chemicals were added which meant that we could not use it for 24 hours, I would have expected this to have been done before we arrived. The game drives with Patrick were awesome! he has alot of knowledge to share with you. We loved the Coffee Shop Breaks in the morning & the Sundowner Bar breaks on the afternoon drives. The food was delicious & well prepared by Piano, we especially enjoyed the Boma Braai when the staff sang & danced for us! Overall a lovely stay! However I did request something special for our 10th Anniversary & they "forgot" this was very disappointing 

An Anniversary Breakaway in the Bush

Sekala lodge is a beautiful and welcoming lodge with everything you need and more. The staff members are very helpful, kind and friendly. I highly recommend this venue for both family and business gatherings.

Tranquility in the bush

The entire staff was amazing, they'll do anything to make your stay a perfect one: good food, warm welcome, great drives! Lodge has a high standard with very comfortable beds. Animals come drink from the pond during the day or night. Amazing experience! Thank you Grace, Patrick, Charles and Evah!!
