Makakatana Bay Lodge
A PLACE OF MAGIC AND WONDER
“Where in the world can you explore the magic and wonder of unspoiled beaches and vast wetlands. Or enjoy game drives, and wildlife, and go on an unforgettable boat cruise on Africa’s largest marine estuary?”
Makakatana Bay Lodge is set on the banks of Lake St Lucia within the iSimangaliso Wetland Park World Heritage Site. It is one of the few natural wonders left on earth. Our goal is to show off this unique and pristine wilderness gem. The perfect addition to a typical safari holiday.
ROOMS AND SUITES
Makakatana Bay Lodge is the only privately owned and owner-managed game lodge within the iSimangaliso Wetland Park. Experience this magnificent area from the comfort of the spacious rooms, set on raised decks within the wilderness of the game park.
THE MAIN LODGE
The main lodge is the heart of Makakatana, a communal area with personal service designed for relaxation and comfort. All game drives leave from the main lodge, and all meals are served on either the raised deck wrapping around the lodge or at the ‘boma’ alongside. The staff are always happy to make your stay magical, let them know if you have any special requests.
The lodge has a bar, a stunning house which it is affectionately called ‘old crab’, and a nearby private bush pool on the edge of Lake St Lucia.
The pool is an unserviced space just for you to make your private sanctuary. There is a buzzer if you need service.
