Kilima Private Game Reserve & Spa

one is always scared when booking unseen places especially online these days, pictures can always be doctored. So off we went, took the lonely sand road and the fears grew until we pulled up at the gate. What we were met with exceeded the photos and reviews. Rain changed some of our plans but the peaceful atmosphere got us to chill, something absent from life nowadays. Little did we know we needed the rest so our tummies could prepare for the feat that awaited us. I am a very fussy eater but the Chef and his team wowed us, bucket list ticked. As a Saffer we have this beauty but sadly don't get the opportunity to experience our beautiful country, well, this weekend that was made possible and my friends and family with me got to enjoy an experience of a life time. Thanks to the team, you worked well, spoilt us especially the Spa and i have had to go on a diet for all the food that my body consumed. i would rate this 15 out of 10

We are so incredibly grateful for our time at Kilima Private Game Reserve & Spa. From the moment we stepped foot on the property, we were greeted warmly and sincerely, professionally and graciously. Manager, Anelia, and her team are simply the best! They have gone above and beyond with kindness, gentleness, and humility to meet every need and more. From our comfortable and spacious family suite, to the beautiful grounds, breathtaking view, and lovely amenities, to the exceptional dining experience again and again, surprising wildlife, and exciting opportunities for adventure, Kilima has everything you need and more for an unforgettable stay! Throw in a game drive with professionals Eris & Kita for an exceptional bonus! We have enjoyed seeing the many species on the property such as bush hogs, longhorn cattle, goats, horses, a variety of Impala (some of the rarest in the world), deer, warthogs, giraffes, zebra, bulls, and more. Highlight: We saw a family of giraffes from the outdoor dining area on night one and it was magical! Thank you, Kilima (Anelia, Tessa, Pearl, Chris, Elliot, Maria, Elsie, Gift, Eunicia, Mildred, the whole team, and especially owners) for THE experience of a lifetime! Thank you for the love you've shown our family and for welcoming us into the fold. We are forever grateful and Kilima will always have a special place in our hearts. P.S. I love the quote about the soul as you exit the property. Spot on!

The most relaxing place to unwind and experience absolute peace and relaxation while being treated like royalty... Our expectations were exceeded. We decided to celebrate our anniversary at the breathtakingly beautiful Kilima. Kilima is a gem hidden in the mountains of our beautiful Limpopo province with 6 star staff experience!

This was by far one of the best places I've visited. The hospitality was amazing, food and service. Will definitely visit and recommend. The rooms was cozy with an amazing view. Location for me was perfect and all in all I will definitely be visiting soon!

We filmed six episodes of a TV series in January 2023 at Kilima and wrapped on schedule, a big thank you to the owners, management and staff for making this possible and for taking such good care of us.

Excellent service! The staff went out of their way to ensure that my family and I were well taken care of. Great value for money. Beautiful location. The reserve is peaceful and the animal sightings added to an overall amazing experience!
