Hi we stayed here for one night after a flight from London. We really enjoyed staying here. It’s like a little oasis around 15-20mins from the airport. It’s safe and well maintained. There is a small parcel of land and I see some ibis/ebis birds, tortoise and a gems bock. They have a lovely friendly dog called whisky too! Davide and his wife really make you feel so welcome and they were kind and gave us a lift to the mall. Which is around 500m or so from the property and we walked back. We took the half board option and Davide built us a fire as well as cooked us a braai with a huge steak and delicious lamb. Our room no.6 was on the ground floor and a separate chalet style. It was comfortable and had everything we needed as well as a big outdoor space outside the room and multiple areas around the property. Great place to stay. Would definitely recommend staying here rather than one of the big hotels near the airport.

We stayed for 4 nights, we found breakfast to be a bit repetitive.

Everything, truly a hidden gem! The animals make it perfect.

with the thatch roofs, it was not very sound proof being so close to the main road. although the shower was warm, it would have been a tad better if it were able to be warmer since i travelled in winter. other than that it was perfect.

the stay was excellent. it was close to where i needed to go for work so the locale was perfect. it was a literal slice of bushveld in the middle of the hustle and bustle of joburg. the owner David was the perfect host and was super accommodating. the bed was impressively comfortable!!

Stayed in September 2024

No complaints, we loved it all.

The Lodge is beautiful and while there, you completely forget that you're in the city, which we loved. David, our host, was very friendly and accommodating. The cottage was cosy, beautifully decorated and comfortable. We especially loved the fireplace and love spending the evenings infront of it watching movies - great, since the weather was freezing!

That we didn’t have more time!

We enjoyed so much about Ikamu’s Lodge, the scenery, our little bungalow, breakfast and the staff

Stayed in July 2024

This lodge, only a few mins away from Jo'burg is a very peaceful place. You would not expect to find such a place within a city, but here it is. I enjoyed everything about it. A little piece of nature and of the bush in the city. The owner David is lovely, welcoming, always willing to help. very nice service and team working there. I totally recommend this place. And feel free to ask them about the tours they can offer !

There was nothing we didn’t like

Room and surroundings amazing. Evening meal and breakfast excellent. Host very helpful. Very clean.

There is a lot of shade but sunny areas too. This would suit the majority of guests though.

This place is a gem. The lush surroundings make you feel as if you are way out in the countryside but in reality it's just a few miles from the city. David has created a tropical paradise, along with his team they went above and beyond all our expectations. The team are friendly, warm and welcoming. We would love to go back. If you are looking for somewhere to stay for a rejuvenating break, or just an airport stop over - I urge you to book and enjoy this beautiful Eden.

I would prefer being issued a remote control to come and go without calling the staff from the intercom every time you come back.

Truly amazing property! A hidden gem.
