Activities in the area include abseiling, white water rafting, microlight flights, elephant encounters, horseback riding and much more!

We were on our honeymoon and they paid attention to that by putting rose petals on the bed, fresh flowers and a postcard in the room. Very nice! The dining room in colonial style is very stylish and cosy. Excellent breakfast, nice diner and very friendly staff. Very big room with bath and luxurious shower, a fireplace and a mini fridge. Nice terrace with a stunning view and plunge bath, but due too the bad weather we couldn't use it.

Tanamera is hidden gem overlooking sabie river. We enjoyed staying in our private luxury cabin with a river view . Dinner nights are spectacular, 5 star service with a 3 course meals served on the deck during favorable weather conditions. Overall food presentation & taste for both dinner and breakfast was exceptional. However, the portion size was a bit small especially for an African man like my husband. None the less they did increase the portion the following day after we told them. Special thanks to Princess and Precious for great service, we really felt at home. The owners Janice Lowe and her husband, they really made us feel at home. We will definitely return

A load of excitement as you meander down this dirt road surrounded by trees, and all of a sudden, you are there. The views are just out of this world and one of the best we have ever seen. The rooms are well laid out, but the furnishings made it feel like a hotel rather than a lodge. A solar heater for the plunge pool would help take the bite off. The staff were friendly and helpful, dinner was a disappointment, but fortunately, breakfast ticked all the boxes.

Good day Patrick P Thank you for your review. Unfortunately due to our position of the lodge, with all the bluegum tree around, we do not have the space to put a solar heater for eight swimming pools and thatch roofs are not capable of supporting a solar heater. I am surprised that you feel that the dinner was disappointing as we seldom get criticisms with regards to our food. Kind regards, Ian Burger General Manager

Arrived at the lodge to a very warm welcome which was appreciated.
The view is amazing!! Our room was large and very comfortable. The shower is incredible!! It has a closed off toilet which I appreciate.
The only issue was the food especially the breakfast. Cooked breakfast consisted of 1 piece of bacon, 1 slice of tomato, a small spoon of mushroom and eggs. Toast was supermarket cheap bread and the jams looked like the cheapest you can get. I didn’t bother to eat that. Honestly I could find better in any franchise restaurant. They only serve 2 meals a day and neither the quality nor quantity was good enough for the amount that is charged per day to stay there.

Our experience at the lodge was absolutely fantastic. The hosts were incredibly kind and always willing to help us plan our activities in the area. The rooms were exceptionally comfortable, nicely decorated and the view from the lodge was truly breathtaking. If given the opportunity, I would definitely return without hesitation.

Tanamera was our first lodge after arriving at Johannesburg airport. The drive there is easy and through beautiful scenery. The owners gave us a warm welcome and took us to our extraordinary, beautiful and cozy chalet with a river view. The view is unique, the peace and quiet is wonderful, only the river is rushing. We were the only guests at the time and felt like VIPs. The food is excellent and there is a large selection of wines. The view from the lounge is BREATHTAKING!!! The nights were a bit chilly, but the beds have electric blankets :) and there is a small wood stove in the room. We can recommend Tanamera without reservation.

The staff of Tanamera Lodge made our 10 year anniversary so special. They were accommodating to all my husband's arrangements and suprises and really went beyond their scope of duty. It was a wonderful time away and would recommend Tanamera Lodge to anyone.

I had a perfect stay at Tanamera lodge from 25-27 November. The lodge was amazing, and the hosts went an extra mile to make sure that we are comfortable. It was one of my best stays ever, a nice place to take a break from the stresses of the city.

We had a fantastic couple of nights here and wish we had probably been able to stay an extra day just to relax enjoy the room, lodge, views and hospitality. The owners were lovely helpful, friendly and chatty. The food was delicious and all the staff friendly efficient and helpful. Everything was immaculate in the lodge and room.

We were upgraded to a honeymoon suit for our anniversary and our bath decorated with petals which was a nice touch.

The rooms are enormous and very comfortable. They have everything you need to relax inside or out and the view is spectacular.

The food was delicious and plentiful.

Would we recommend 100% would we want to return 100% fantastic place well worth a visit if exploring the panorama route especially if you want to be comfortable and surrounded by nature. Highly reccomend

What a great place to stay. Cannot recommend more- great design, amazing views, kindest hosts, great information on wherever go and what to do, could not ask for a better place. Kind and respectful personnel, and really a great place, well posted on the road, and an adventure around you. Make sure to walk around a bit to experience the jungle. Birds and nature abundant. When we left something in the safe, the hosts ensured posting it from Nelspruit, quite a drive for them and followed up to make sure it arrived. So kind, honestly: go to Tanamera lodge for an amazing experience.
