Private Game Lodge offers exclusivity, style and luxury
against a backdrop of wild Africa in all her splendour. Situated in the Welgevonden
Private Game Reserve (a malaria-free area), Sediba Game Lodge is only a three-hour drive
from Johannesburg.
Floating between the towering trees and the forest floor,
each of Sediba's ten suites embraces the natural environment whilst offering the ultimate
in sumptuous comfort and tranquillity. The open-plan suites, each with lounge, double
bedroom and en-suite bathroom, open onto personal secluded viewing decks overlooking the
majestic Waterberg mountains. No luxury or detail has been overlooked to create a tranquil
haven and a truly unique wildlife experience. Guests are assured of personal service
around the clock. Gourmet chefs prepare excellent cuisine and our wine cellar is stocked
with exclusive vintage wines.
A wildlife world of adventure awaits our patrons on game
drives and bush walks, from Landrovers or in private hides. Guided by experienced,
knowledgeable rangers, guests can view big game, such as elephant, lion and rhino or
relish more intimate encounters with other fauna and flora.
Accommodation
An integral part of the
breathtaking Welgevonden Reserve, Sediba is a private game reserve with two all-suite game
lodges - Letlapala and Letlapa.
Letlapa ('rock') Lodge is
situated in a valley with a perennial stream running through it. The lodge is linked by
boardwalks and wheel-chair friendly paths. Letlapa has three suites and two exclusive
suites, including one suite that has been specially prepared to accommodate our disabled
guests.
Letlapala ('the place of the sun')
Lodge is aptly named - situated on one of the highest points of the reserve, it
basks in both sunrise and sunset and has spectacular views over the valleys. The more
intimate of the two lodges, Letlapala has four suites and one exclusive suite, all
designed to blend into the environment while providing every comfort.
All facilities are available to guests staying at either
of the Sediba lodges. Each suite has it's own private Jacuzzi. These are kept pre-warmed
for use.
Dining
Mealtimes are pleasurable
experiences at Sediba where our chefs create mouth-watering masterpieces for our guests
enjoyment. There are three meals served daily and high tea is served in the afternoon.
Meals can be served in various locations such as the main decks, bomas or inside. Guests

ranger. Private candle lit dinners in the suites can also be arranged.
Bar

with a wide selection of local and international drinks. A selection of fine cigars are
also available. A mini-bar is provided in the suite and should one require additional bar
items room service will tend to the request. All local beers, ciders, soft drinks, and
house wines are complimentary. Guests are requested to freely browse through our vintage
wine cellar or ask our chefs to recommend a wine to complement their meal.
