10/10 Excellent
"Our stay at 57 Waterberg was truly unforgettable and easily one of the highlights of our trip to South Africa. From the moment we arrived, there was an incredible sense of warmth, hospitality, and genuine care. The lodge manages to combine a beautiful, luxurious experience with an intimate, family-like atmosphere, which is not easy to accomplish—especially in such a remote and spectacular setting. The lodge itself is absolutely beautiful. Everything feels modern, elegant, peaceful, and thoughtfully designed while still allowing you to feel completely connected to the surrounding African wilderness. Our room was modern, spacious, extremely comfortable, and beautifully appointed. I also really enjoyed spending time at the pool between activities. There is something very special about being able to relax in such a luxurious environment while knowing you are in the middle of a game reserve surrounded by nature. One of the biggest highlights of our entire experience was Petrus, our game drive guide. Petrus is simply amazing. He has around 30 years of experience, and it shows immediately—not only in his knowledge of the animals and the reserve, but in the way he reads the environment and understands what guests are hoping to experience. He was professional, patient, caring, and genuinely passionate about what he does. He never made the game drives feel rushed or routine. He took the time to explain what we were seeing, answer our questions, and make every drive feel like a comple"

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Bulge River?
The best area to stay in Bulge River is within the private game reserves themselves, as this offers the most convenient and exclusive access to wildlife viewing.Staying within a private game reserve means you're already in the heart of the wilderness. These areas typically feature luxurious lodges and tented camps that blend into the natural surroundings. You'll find yourself waking up to the sounds of the bush and often have wildlife sightings directly from your accommodation. The main activities revolve around guided game drives and bush walks, often led by experienced rangers.Couples looking for a romantic and exclusive escape will find these private reserves ideal.

It's an opportunity to truly disconnect and focus on the wildlife and each other.For families with older children, certain private reserves offer tailored programmes. These might include junior ranger activities, guided walks focusing on insects and plants, and game drives designed to be engaging for younger explorers.
When is the best time to go to Bulge River?
The best time to visit Bulge River is during the dry season, which runs from May to October.During these months, the weather is cooler and drier, making it more comfortable for safaris and outdoor activities. The sparse vegetation and dwindling water sources mean that animals, including the "Big Five," congregate around the Bulge River and other permanent waterholes, making them easier to spot. This period is particularly good for wildlife viewing, as the animals are more active during the day.For those looking for an exceptional safari experience with guaranteed wildlife sightings, the dry season is ideal. Days are typically sunny with clear skies, and evenings are refreshingly cool. This is great for couples or solo travellers who want to maximise their chances of seeing a wide variety of animals and enjoy comfortable game drives.The shoulder months of April and November can also be a good option.
