Monate Game Lodge - Your Stay in Modimolle

Monate Game Lodge offers five open-plan en-suite chalets with modern amenities and air conditioning.

Dining venues include a natural cave (requires 20 guests minimum for private events) overlooking the landscape, and a bush boma for braai dinners under the stars. The restaurant serves buffet-style meals: breakfast includes a varied spread; lunch and dinner are fixed-price buffets with options like salads, sausages, chicken wings, lamb potjie, and malva pudding for dessert. Special diet menus are available on request. Drinks cost R37 for 300ml sodas and R343 per person for dinner (excluding drinks).

For relaxation, the spa provides in-room massages like deep tissue and couples treatments, plus a hot tub and outdoor swimming pool. The property features a picnic area with sun loungers and a terrace for bush views.
