Pilanesberg Private Lodge is a new private retreat nestled on the foot of the majestic Pilanesberg Mountains, in the Black Rhino Private Reserve. The lodge is uniquely situated within a two-hour drive from Johannesburg and Pretoria, and is within a 20-minute drive from Sun City.

The lodge is uniquely positioned in a part of the Pilanesberg National Park wilderness area that has previously not been accessible to any visitors, where guests enjoy nothing but spectacular views of the world-famous Pilanesberg Alkaline Ring Complex. The lodge was designed to incorporate the views to ensure that even when you are not on game drives, you still have the opportunity to see any of the animals from the lodge, and elephant, Black and White rhino, lion and leopard have been spotted from the lodge in the last few months.

We offer five sleeping units that are connected via paved pathways and bridges to the communal area. Each chalet is equipped with extra length king-size beds with white linen, an en-suite bathroom with a rock bath and both indoor and outdoor showers, air-conditioning, ceiling fans, a bar fridge, hairdryer, kettle, mini safe, and a private patio. The communal area consists of a lounge, dining room, library, TV lounge, bar, kitchen, pool deck, Jacuzzi, covered patio, boma, and a viewing deck.

The reserve is characterized by huge numbers of Tambotie trees and therefore we have regular sightings of the bad tempered Black rhino. The reserve is entered exclusively through our private entrance gate on the western side and is home to the Big 5 as well as cheetahs and wild dogs. Antelope species include sable, eland, gemsbok and springbok. With a species list of over 354, the reserve is also a true birder's paradise.

Activities in the area include hot air balloon safaris over the park, elephant-back safaris with elephant interaction where kids get a chance to get up close and personal with the elephants, as well as special safaris tailor-made for photographic, walking and bird safaris. Visit Sun City with all its fantastic amenities, including the Valley of Waves, the world-famous Gary Player Golf Course and The Lost City Golf Course.

Hierdie is werklik 'n waarde vir geld aanbeveling vir mense wie gemaklik en rustig wil vakansie hou in pragtige natuur! Ons het van dag een af fantastiese wild gesien op die wildritte bv 'n luiperd wyfie wat sommer baie na-aan die lodge in 'n boom haar prooi gevreet het. Die pak wildehonde wat ongelooflike fiksheid vertoon het deur sommer in 'n paar minute van die voet van die berg tot op die kruin te hardloop, sonder om moeg te lyk. Renosters wat die oudste renoster koei in die trop wil beskerm en so 2 meter van die voertuig af tot stilstand kom en dan wonder ... wat is hierdie voorwerp voor my wat nie weghardloop as ek storm nie. Die personeel in die Black Rhino Lodge konsidireer hul gaste en mekaar ongelooflik en glo my, as daar 'n trop leeus is, kry elke gas 'n kans om foto's te neem ipv soos in sommige parke waar daar verkeersknope ontstaan as 'n renoster en haar kalfie (nou sonder horings en amper nie meer te siene in parke is nie)of 'n leeu langs die pad is. Ons gaan die sjef met die warm waslappe en glase sjerries vir elke gas, na elke nag wildrit mis. Die smaaklik voorbereide etes was heerlik en meer as genoeg om van te kies. Die kersie op die koek ... 'n hele trop olifant koeie met jong kalfies van 'n paar maande tot ongeveer so 2 jaar wat ons in die middel van die grondpad na die hoofingang kom afsien het! Sal hierdie lodge definitief aanbeveel. Hoop ons geleentheid kom gou om self weer daar te gaan ontspan. Baie dankie aan die puik groep wat Pilanesberg Private Lodge so goed verteenwoordig het.

We have just returned from spending a fantastic weekend at the lodge. The hospitality was fantastic and the food, excellent. The accommodation was luxury too! The game drives were everything we could have wished for and more. I had never seen a leopard in it's natural habitat and was so blessed to experience it during our late afternoon drive, watching it eat it's prey .....awesome, awesome experience. I definitely will be visiting this lodge again. Thank you to all the staff for a wonderful way for us to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary!

The stay was everything that I expected and more. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The game drives were excellent - we saw an abundance of game. We would definitely stay there again.

We spent an enjoyable evening at the lodge. Unfortunately it rained so our evening drive was cut short and there was no electricity at the lodge. The staff coped very well under the circumstances. We found our room was not properly prepared initially, but soap, shampoo etc appeared, without our having to ask for it, during the course of the evening. On the whole, a pleasant experience.
