Nestled in the heart of Madikwe Game Reserve, Molori Safari Lodge offers a luxurious and unforgettable retreat. Known for its world-renowned conservation efforts, Madikwe Game Reserve is rife with wildlife. This wildly luxurious hideaway coexists with nature to put you up-close with the Big Five-especially the elephants, lion, and rhino that roam this northwest corner of South Africa.

The Metsi Presidential Suite: A Highlight
Staying in the Metsi Presidential Suite at Molori Safari Lodge South Africa was truly one of the highlights of all my travels. The property has spared no expense to make each of the rooms available feel like you’ve got the wildlife reserve to yourself! Walking up to the entrance of my enormous suite at the Molori Safari Lodge, I loved how secluded it was.

The trees are so beautiful and I was obsessed with the stonework. Walking into the double doors, my room had a huge chandelier in the entrance room. The entry table and artwork was minimal but chic. The living areas of this suite all blend together perfectly so you never feel trapped or closed off from anything. It’s all surrounded by walls of floor-to-ceiling windows that took my breath away!
The main living room area is connected with a dining spot and the kitchen. The Metsi Suite has a study and library area, too. I loved checking out their collection of National Geographic magazines. It’s a specially curated collection that dates all the way back to the 1940s and was really a nice touch.
Luxurious Bedrooms and Bathrooms
This enormous suite has two bedrooms. The primary bedroom could be something straight out of a design magazine. The chandelier here was so beautiful and I am a sucker for gorgeous light fixtures. Even the bathroom area of my room had its own sitting space! Plus a double vanity, so you won’t be having to share one sink.
One of the most incredible features of the Metsi Presidential Suite, though, was the bathtub. The smaller secondary bedrooms have special attention to detail, too. It had tons of natural light with walls of windows, a comfortable bed, and its own gorgeous ensuite bathroom. No matter which room you stay in, you’re not gonna be disappointed.
Outdoor Amenities
Sure, it’s a nice retreat when it gets hot, but the Molori Safari Lodge Metsi Suite also has an incredible outdoor area. The main property has two pools you can use, but this suite had an outdoor area with my own private pool and jacuzzi. Beyond the pool and jacuzzi, there’s also an outdoor shower that I made use of more than once. All the outdoor spots had plenty of shade, so I wasn’t being blasted by the sun.

Experiences and Activities
From the location in the Madikwe Game Reserve, the hotel offers guided game drives and tracking experiences so you can see incredible animals (including the endangered African Wild Dog) in the wild! They also offer bush walks and a whiskey bar that overlooks a watering hole - you can’t get that just anywhere.
More than just these, my stay at the Molori Safari Lodge Metsi Suite also came with guided game drives, bush walks, nighttime animal viewings, and a couple spa treatments that you know I had to experience. Are you always on the hunt for the most unique hotel rooms?
Madikwe Game Reserve is South Africa’s fifth largest game reserve. It’s got the Super Seven, which is the Big Five (lion, leopard, rhinoceros, elephant, and African buffalo) plus cheetahs and the African wild dog.
Formerly a private lodge, Molori is still run like a home. Guests are greeted warmly upon arrival with the entire staff gathered for a song and dance.
