Serondella Safari Lodge can accommodate up to 14 guests. If booked on an exclusive use basis, the lodge will gladly cater for a few extra children. All ages are welcome and children of 5 years and younger are accommodated free of charge.
Serondella’s original offering consisted of two one-bedroom suites and a two-bedroom family suite, each of which has undergone a wonderful makeover. A new addition is “Willem’s Den”. This three-bedroom family suite was previously the owner’s private retreat.
After a complete transformation, it is now available to guests and features a private boma and heated plunge pool. The suites are welcoming retreats with private decks and luxury, high quality amenities. The contemporary Afro-Scandi décor is carried out throughout the lodge, complemented by unique Anton Smit art.
The lodge has commenced an exciting culinary journey, starting with a commitment to using organic and locally sourced produce for artisan dishes, and a wine list created under the guidance of sommelier extraordinaire Carrie Adams and David van Niekerk of High Constantia. But a lodge is nothing without its people, and Serondella is proud of its revitalized team.
Expect to be dazzled by a bright smile and a warm heart from each of its members, from the experienced guides and trackers to the fastidious housekeepers, passionate chefs and professional hosts.
