Makumu was the perfect choice for our honeymoon. I loved it so much that I left the hotel with my heart full and a lot of tears of joy. It is a magical place and a perfect addition to Klasserie reserve.

At Makumu, we had a great time. The styling, the interior are so nicely done. The rooms are very beautiful. But the best thing about Makumu is the feeling of family.

Makumu is the best place I’ve ever stayed. It is the ultimate experience, from the safari rides to the meals. My family thoroughly enjoyed our 4 days there. We’d all love to go back.
