Our pool at Makrugu offers sweeping views of the surrounding bushveld, providing the perfect place to unwind while enjoying frequent visits from resident zebra, giraffe, warthog and impala, along with smaller wildlife such as mongoose and Franklin birds. It’s an ideal setting to relax and cool off during warm summer afternoons.

Dining at Makrugu is a warm, personal experience that we truly cherish. We pride ourselves on serving hearty, flavourful meals with genuine hospitality. From refreshing breakfasts enjoyed outdoors to the soundtrack of birdsong, to cosy evenings by the fire with a delicious three-course dinner, every meal becomes a special occasion. After dinner, settle in around the fire pit, listen to the nocturnal sounds of the bush, and admire the brilliant African night sky filled with stars.
