Morala - ‘A taste of wild Africa’

Refurbished, refined and soaked in French-flair, Morala is your chateau away from home. With an uncompromising promise of luxury and comfort, it is in stark contrast to the wild, natural flow of the valley over which it lays claim, and yet still blends in perfectly with them. Come, relax, enjoy. Finally find the space to exhale, and then, with a full heart, inhale the wilder side of Africa. With some of our largest rooms (a main suite and two family units), and most astounding views, Morala is the perfect under the African sun, or stars. With a pool, gym, firepit and petanque court, the only time you’ll want to leave this utopia is for your daily game-drives. Morala consists of a Main Lodge with Lounge, Dining Room and outside braai area providing guests with a comfortable living area and outside deck with exquisite views of the reserve. The benefit of booking the lodge on a exclusive basis whereby you and your guests have the benefit of a truly private game lodge experience together with your own game vehicle and private game ranger cannot be understated. A truly exceptional experience.

TESTIMONIALS

WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY

We stayed in Morala, an exclusive-use luxury lodge in the large Welgevonden Game Reserve, for 2 nights in July.  The lodge was absolutely beautiful and a luxurious lodge.  As for the reserve that was also a fantastic end to our safari as we managed to see virtually all the animals (and more) that we hadn’t seen on the rest of the tour including a huge herd of buffalo, eland, waterbuck, klipspringers and an ostrich (they have only one). The reserve is absolutely full of a wide variety of wildlife, birds and plant life and the perfect place to go if you want to see all the animals in one place. We even saw two groups of bush pigs which we were told was quite rare as they are nocturnal and on one evening game drive we saw 5 lionesses and one male lion just lazing in an open area outside one of the lodges. The added advantage to this reserve is that its only 2.5 hours’ drive from Johannesburg. Would we go back – most definitely if looking for somewhere within easy driving distance of Johannesburg.

LOCATION

Welgevonden Game Reserve

MAJESTIC BIG 5 GAME VIEWING

Rolling wooded mountains cut by deep rocky ravines and majestic gorges make Welgevonden Game Reserve an evocative piece of Africa. Aptly meaning ‘well found’, this is a place of rare and rugged beauty, plentiful wildlife and prolific birdlife. Spectacular scenery and excellent game viewing make Welgevonden quite unlike anywhere else on earth. To visit here is to experience the spirit of true wilderness.

A pleasant 2.5-hour drive or an easy 45-minute flight from Johannesburg into one of the airstrips, makes Welgevonden one of the most accessible premier malaria free wilderness reserves in the country. Welgevonden Game Reserve, (Dutch for "well found"), is a 34,850 ha game reserve in the Waterberg District, of the Limpopo Province of South Africa.
