Lodges in Mica

Superb location and great personal introduction

Our time at @nyatisafarilodge was truly special, it will forever have a special place in my heart 🫶. From the breath taking views, the wildlife that explored the grounds - right outside the room to the bush. It was like a slideshow on what animal next was crossing our bungalow (monkeys, giraffe, elephant, springbok) We got so lucky with the beautiful game drives that our amazing guide - Henry took us on from 5am sunrise to sunset. We seen the big 5 and more ! We even got to star gaze the beauty of kruger. The locations he took us too & what we learnt about surviving in the wild. We took half a day out to visit @moholoholo_wildlife_rehab with Kenneth which is a rehabilitation center for injured & abandoned wildlife. The @nyatisafari team took incredible care of us, they genuinely went above and beyond and made us feel like family. The food & our stunning river bungalow was more than we could off wished for. And the people we got to meet will be friends for life. Huge thanks to Henry, Kenneth, Rome, Ashanti, the amazing chef, innocent and his “not so innocent” cocktails and all the staff. We simply not wait to return again. Nyati truly left us with memories for life.

Hardus was an excellent guide and very friendly. He went the extra mile. The tents have nice balconies with views.

A typical and lovely African place with very kind staff. The night safari was a real experience and the food was great!

Milima really is a great safari lodge. I personally find it pretty hard to decide which lodge you should choose, most tourists go on safari once in a lifetime or at max a few times in a lifetime so you don't want to make the wrong decision. I'm pretty sure that you wouldn't be disappointed if you chose Milima. Two years ago we stayed at a lodge for almost twice the price and to be honest apart from the other lodge being even smaller/more private (only 8 guests during our stay) Milima can easily compete with the much pricier lodge. MILIMA has a good sice with roughly 8 rooms so you'll have a chance to know every guest but it's not that small that it gets weird (at our last lodge we've been the only guests on one day which has some pros but also is a bit weird for us). The staff is really nice, food is really good (breakfast is good but compared to some other places in south africa "simple" meaning "only" normal scrambled eggs and omlettes by choice but no super fancy stuff like eggs Benedict but to be honest you don't go to a safari lodge for fancy breakfast but for safari). The Safaris were really fun, we stayed 3 nights (so 6 game drives included in the all inclusive concept) and we've seen the big five after 5 drives. Our first two to three drives weren't that lucky, it was really hot during the day (40 degrees Celsius) so the animals didn't show up that much, but our ranger Sidney really went the extra mile for us to see the animals we wanted most to see. We really wanted to see Hyenas - and he made that possible. On the evening before departure we weren't able to see Lions yet, we returned to the lodge and we're almost back at the lodge when someone found the Lions - Sidney offered to make some overtime to drive us to the spot where the Lions were spotted - and we've seen 5 Lions on the hunt, an unforgettable experience for which we are really thankful.

The staff, from Janus (the Lodge Manager) to our personal Butler (Kitso) and many more (Njabulo, Fanny, Noel, Given etc) were super helpful and their communication was excellent throughout our stay. The room (Chesterfield Suite) was very clean and well decorated and we even had giraffes pass by our room daily. The property offered many activities both within the property, such as Game Drives, Picnics, Mountain Biking, and outside the property such the Day Trip to Kruger Park with Soly from Bush Baby Tours which we would highly recommend. We also did the Treetop Sleepout which is also a truly unique experience. Would highly recommend staying at Oase by 7 Star Lodges!

e had a great time at Greenfire Game Lodge and definitely recommend to stay there! The chalets are very modern and stylish (even better than the pics); all having a terrace facing the river where often animals walk by. The food was excellent and the staff very nice. One evening we had an African barbecue which was great (the other evenings is was too cold to sit outside). We made the game drives and a bush walk with Given who is a very engaged and experienced guide. He is very mindful about the animals and the nature, e.g. we appreciated that there is no off-road driving to protect the animals. We saw the big 5 and also wild dogs and - for sure - a lot of other animals. On most of our drives we were only the four of us, i.e. they do not "fill-up" the cars up to the last place. Very nice! Carol and Nigel, the owners of the lodge, stay there and we had a lot of nice and interesting conversations.

Absolutely brilliant! My booking was a last minute impulse decision, and the deal offered on Booking.com was amazing. Jo and her team run a great operation, and make everyone feel special. The guest accommodation is in the form of individual rondavels, and they are top quality. The outdoor shower was a highlight! The food = oh my goodness - this was great. Far too much to eat, but better too much than too little. I had to skip a couple of meals. The safari drives are exciting, and the guides are friendly and professional. And great to meet new friends from all over the world. All in all, simply the best. Highly recommended.

Guide show us big Five, 4 in the afternoon safari--elephant/buffalo/leopard/Lion. 1 in the morning safari--rhinoceros. Really nice.
