It was just as advertised and described. If you are looking for a self catered place it fits the bill.
It would also be great for friends to book together as a group.

The Pilansberg is great for Fauna & Flora.We always have good animal & bird sightings.
The condition of many of the roads is appalling and not comfortable in a normal sedan vehicle.
The Camping facilities at Bakgatla are adequate with good shade but not much grass.
However,the Chalet we used was terrible. R10k for three nights - the Aircon didn't work at all(in 37deg heat),the Stove didn't work.The Tap on the sink was literally falling off.The Fridge wasn't very efficient.
No Shower and the bath was designed for a midget & it was dirty because the surface was badly stained.
One toilet for five people - not good enough for R3k a night.

Ivory Tree lodge is like an oasis in the bush. A very chilled out place to stay. Great open spaces to lounge and relax. Excellent friendly hotel staff and very knowledgeable game rangers. Overall an amazing experience 😀

The staff and service were amazing.
The staff and service were amazing. Always helpful and polite. The manager Karel was also very helpful and went out of his way to please us. He took us on some amazing game drives.
The hotel is old and tired and the rooms are dirty. The mats by the bed were filthy and torn as well as the mat in the bathroom which also needed a clean.
The food was very average and we were also served left overs on one of the days we were there. Unless there is an upgrade to the premises I cannot see us going back anytime soon

Once one we were in the sanctuary of the Black Rhino Lodge, all was fantastic. Getting there and back by road was unpleasant. The surrounding areas are poverty stricken and the roads in a poor state.
Unforunately, there is no longer an airport in the area.

Although the roads aren't in the best shape, it helps one to drive slowly, to enjoy the bush and all it has to offer. The "Friends of Pilansberg" try very hard to maintain the roads. The "Bush" takes care of the rest!!
The accommodation exceeded our expectations.
The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast, lunch and dinner were tasty and well cared for. Once we had a bbq after arriving from an evening safari: super cozy.
The rooms were spacious and very neat. We enjoyed our safaris with super motivated guide: Alex! Thank you Alex for your enthusiasm and knowledge. During the safari we received a well-maintained snack and drink at the sunset.
We would definitely recommend this stay and it is really worth staying there!
The design, location and privacy of these villas is five star. With a heated pool on the most amazing patio overlooking the Pilansberg we were able to relax in complete privacy, even seeing a hippo in the small dam in front of the unit. We also loved that we could walk within the resort (something not really safe to do in other bush villas) and make use of the resorts lively amenities … the restaurant, tennis courts, gym, boma, game drives ect. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back.
The staff was largely superb, although not everyone speaks fluent English.
Breakfast is a high point: each day is different, and dietary restrictions are requested and followed (e.g. one can ask for no beef, no pork, etc.)
Some rooms are in separate apartments near the swimming pool.
Bathrooms are large w/ large showers.
Near Pilansberg Park and Sun City.
Extra secure entrance to room w/ locking gate as well as door.
Refrigerator and coffee materials in room. Air conditioning.
Location is amazing, our guide’s name was Bright and he was exceptional. definitely an experience with wonderful game drive staff across the board. Rooms are spacious and super comfortable to rest your eyes after an adventurous day of exploring the Pilanesberg Reserve. The hotel staff are just as amazing ensuring that our needs were fulfilled. They even went the extra mile to make up for some of the downsides that we faced. definitely worth a try
It lacked the polish I would expect for the price paid. On the day we arrived there was not enough food, the waiter service was poor. The rooms were large and the structure was spectacular but it looked empty due to the sparse furnishings. As a South African, this was not a cheap destination and I was hoping for more attention to detail from the staff and rooms. Reception staff were excellent and game drives were a great experience.
As much as I would like to keep this place secret, I must say that this was heaven! Beautiful rooms with a terrasse overlooking the park, the pool is small but lovely. The hotel was running at full capacity when we were there but it still felt very exclusive. And don’t get me started about the food which was divine… A big thanks to Piet who was very welcoming! and have a massage: amazing!
The experience at the hotel was amazing. They asked us in advance what we would like to eat and if we had any dietary restrictions! The hotel's breakfast is incredible with many options. I would like to mention our safari experience at the Game Lodge; we had two guides, Sibu and Helen, both very knowledgeable and skilled. They showed special attention to my pregnant wife.
Love the staff! Everyone is so friendly, from the moment we entered the hotel to the moment we checked out. Very thoughtful people. Restaurant staff are lovely - food was amazing! The safaris are out of this world - our guide, Freedom, was awesome. We saw the Big 4 out of 5 on our safari. And despite coming in winter, the room was incredibly well insulated! Loved it!
Absolutely beautiful, immaculate, the rooms are 5 star, but what sets this lodge apart is the service. So ready to assist in any way and the big smiles and kind hearts of all from front desk to restaurant to cleaning. Tanya our driver was so smart well informed fun and made my whole safari experience something I will never forget. Thank you !! From Kentucky USA.
Ivory Tree Game Lodge is still a great choice, if you ever wonder which place to pick between all the different options for Safaris. It is first class with amazing service. The food, atmosphere and professional staff in all accommodations and cullinary areas were above expectations and we definitely experienced great service from all these wonderful people.
All meals were tasty and well presented. Obviously there is a good chef.
The standard rooms are very small. Apart for the huge bed, there is little space left. This is not the typical room size for a 5* hotel, which Shepherds Lodge pretends to be.
Apart from the 2 game drives per day, there is little to do in the hotel.
The only thing that is good about Ivory Tree is its location relative to the Park. The staff are wonderful and try hard. But this place is not value for money, it is my opinion over priced for what ypu get and there are better places to stay around the Pilansberg that are more value for money.
Staff was outstanding. Even got lucky and had a private safari morning ride. Room was insane and luxurious! This place was epic. Here is a video. https://www.instagram.com/reel/CpBSuHko1jT/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=
The hotel is amazing, the Crew is very gently and the position is a dream! I’ll come back soon! I’ll fly from Italy again just to be in this amazing place!
