Property information

Private Boutique Bush Lodge, Marloth Park - South Africa When approaching South Safari Lodge (tucked away in the African Bush, nestled between old Knob Thorn and Marula Trees), you get a feeling of "Old Africa" as you see a thatched roof lodge appearing in front of you. The style and décor flows throughout the premises. This special "Old Africa" charm is recreated in your own bungalow with its interior eloquently designed in line with the African Safari theme. You know you're in the right place, a place that’s conscious about African Safari Experiences.
