About Samara Karoo Lodge

Karoo Lodge is located in the Samara Game Reserve – which, at 270km², is arguably the largest game reserves ...

... in the Eastern Cape. The lodge stands on the edge of the wide-open plains of the Great Karoo, about three hours' drive from Port Elizabeth. It’s a restored farmhouse and its fairly traditional design and décor reflects its colonial past.

Samara Karoo Lodge is a lovely, tastefully decorated lodge with some great accommodation, particularly in its stand-alone Karoo Suites. It offers a high-quality experience to travellers of a Karoo wilderness area, with good levels of care, guiding and food. Having said that, be aware that we found its game densities, and especially its populations of the big predator, to be quite limited.

Samara Karoo Lodge: Our full report

Karoo Lodge is located in the Samara Game Reserve – which, at 270km², is arguably the largest game reserves ...

... in the Eastern Cape. The lodge stands on the edge of the wide-open plains of the Great Karoo, about three hours' drive from Port Elizabeth. It’s a restored farmhouse and its fairly traditional design and décor reflects its colonial past.

Samara’s Karoo Lodge has ten suites and all of these have air conditioning, drinkable tap water, a mini-bar fridge, coffee & tea station, a safe and an en-suite bathroom. There are three different types of here:

  • The Lodges Suites are inside the main building, and part of it. Each of these rooms is different, for example, one has a large bookcase filled with interesting tomes. All are decorated to a high standard and use quite traditional furnishings and fittings. Each has an en-suite bathroom with a double washbasin and a separate bath and shower. They’re particularly convenient in their proximity to the dining room and lounge – and all these suites open onto a sitting area, with outdoor chairs, which is part of the large wrap-around veranda around the lodge’s main building.
  • There are three larger and more modern cottages, each standing on its own and separate from the lodge’s main building: these are the Karoo Suites. These cottages are very spacious and tastefully decorated with beautifully restored traditional furnishings and fittings. Inside each you’ll find a lounge suite set beside the fireplace, a four-poster double bed and enough space to accommodation two single beds for children with ease. The en-suite bathroom is also large, with a separate toilet in its own room, bath, indoor shower, large wardrobes and a dressing table. Outside the wide private veranda wraps around three sides of the suite; at one end is the outdoor shower, and beside the patio-doors are some comfortable outdoor loungers.
  • Samara’s entry level rooms are the two Sibella Suites, which are also separated from the main building. These are smaller than the Karoo and Lodges suites, but they are furnished in a similar way. Each of their bathrooms has a shower, but not a bath, and they share a single outdoor deck.
The main facilities at Samara Karoo include a very warm, cosy living room, a bar area and a large dining room, each with a fireplace, plus a very small TV area, an outside boma and a curio shop. Outside is a wide veranda, which wraps around the building. There are numerous seating areas out with large comfy sofas and armchairs, where you can relax and enjoy the surrounding landscape and mountain views.

Samara’s Karoo Lodge has a large swimming pool surrounded by sun loungers and umbrellas. When we last visited this looked very inviting, but in April it was very chilly indeed! Note that there’s relatively little shade around the pool. There’s a tennis court for guests who wish to be active and spa treatments are available in the privacy of your suite for those who prefer to relax.

Activities organized out of the Karoo Lodge focus entirely on the Samara Private Game Reserve which surrounds it. Morning and afternoon/evening drives in open 4WD vehicles are the norm – and sometimes walks to approach the cheetah, or giraffe, or something else of interest many be included in these.

See our comments on the Samara Private Reserve for a more detailed description of Samara’s environment and the wildlife which is found here. In short, this dry-country reserve hosts a variety of antelope, including red hartebeest, giraffe and, on its mountain plateau, good numbers of Cape Mountain zebra and gemsbok. There are cheetahs which can be tracked using a radio-collar, and a few rhino. Also of note: Aardvark appear to be more numerous and visible here than in most areas of Africa – perhaps due to the lack of their usual predators: lion, leopard or spotted hyena; and blue cranes can often be seen here, especially in the South Africa winter.

The vast majority of the activities in this malaria-free reserve are suitable for children, making Samara’s Karoo Lodge a strong candidate for a family holiday.

Food & drink

Usual board basis
Full Board & Activities
Food quality
Meals times are flexible at Karoo Lodge, breakfast is generally served at 09.30, after the morning game drive, or earlier (on request) for guests whishing to depart.

When we visited the lodge in May 2014, breakfast included freshly squeezed fruit juice; platters of fresh fruit as well as cold meats and cheese are available along with a selection of cereals and yoghurts. A hot breakfast was also available and included a selection of eggs, bacon, sausage and toast.

Lunch is generally provided from 13h00 and dinner from 7h30 or later for guests in a game drive.

One of Samara’s many evening menus, during our stay in April 2014, featured a couple of choices of starter, main and a dessert. The choice of starter was either a tomato tartlet with blue cheese sauce or a butternut and sweet potato soup. The main course was either venison fillet with black pepped sauce or stuffed chicken with mushroom sauce. Both main courses were served with stacked potatoes and vegetables. The desert was a melktert flavoured crème brulee.

Dining is also possible outside – on the veranda, in the boma, in the poolside area and on the lawn for picnics. At the Karoo Lodge breakfast and lunch are served either outside on the wide veranda or inside in the smart dining room. There is also a boma outside where dinner is served in the evenings, weather permitting.

The professionally trained chef at Karoo Lodge has his own style of traditional South African cuisine and this is noticeable in the high standard of the food at the lodge.

Special interests

Family holidays
With lots of space, the Karoo suites here are great venues for a family holiday in South Africa. Samara has a children's menu, flexible meal times, baby-sitting options and there’s little very dangerous game here, so children are generally allowed on walks and game drives.
See ideas for Family holidays in South Africa
Wildlife safaris
Samara doesn’t have the highest game densities for a wildlife safari in South Africa. However, Samara does have a high density of aardvarks – giving this reserve an enviable record for sightings of these very elusive, nocturnal mammals.
See ideas for Wildlife safaris in South Africa
Walking
For pure bush walking in South Africa, Samara Reserve offers a range of guided options including the chance to track cheetah and possibly rhino, and opportunities for spotting endangered species, like blue cranes and Cape mountain zebras.
See ideas for Walking in South Africa

Children

Attitude towards children
Samara is very child friendly.
Property’s age restrictions
Children of all ages are welcome at Samara’s Karoo Lodge.
Special activities & services
The lodge arranges a dedicated children's program daily during some times of year – including activities and walks; currently this is just for South African holidays in June.

At any time of year, children can choose from special children's menu and early dinners can be arranged for them. Baby-sitting is available on request thought not included. Note that baby-sitters are usually members of the local housekeeping team rather than trained or qualified child-minders.

The lodge rule is that only children aged 8 years and older are allowed on scheduled game drives with other guests at the lodge. This is understandable, as many adult guests won’t want to share a vehicle with a child whose attention span may be very limited.

The only way to guarantee game activities that include younger children would be to arrange private vehicle in advance for your stay, and pay the extra cost for this as well.

Although this rule appears draconian, our own experience, of staying here with two small children, is that they were very flexible. The lodge team did their best to provide game drives and walking activities that included our whole family. For four of us that sometimes meant we were lucky enough to have our own vehicle; at other times we shared the vehicle with another family.

We clearly understood before we arrived that the lodge might not be able to include the children on some or any of our drives. In the even – we were delighted that they were able to make a plan and none of us missed a single drive!
Equipment
Cots and highchairs can be provided. Each Karoo Suite can have up to two extra beds for children – without compromising the sense of space in these large rooms.
Generally recommended for children
Yes
Notes
Children under the age of 8 are not usually allowed on game drives unless the family has paid for exclusive use of a vehicle.

South Africa in January

January is considered one of the best months to travel. In Cape Town the weather is hot and generally dry. The Garden Route is also excellent at this time of the year but has a more temperate climate, with slightly lower temperatures and rain can fall at any time of the year. In the Kgalagadi temperatures often top 40°C and short, sharp thunderstorms are also fairly frequent. Wildlife tends to disperse, although birding is excellent.

As this is the high season in the Cape there are numerous events, festivals and outdoor activities to attract visitors. Accommodation books up quickly and it may be necessary to book at least a year in advance. Reservations will often be needed for restaurants and visitor attractions too.

  • Hot, largely dry days with clear skies – except on Garden Route
  • Wildlife disperses in the Kalahari but birding excellent
  • Events, festivals and outdoor activities staged for the high season
  • The high season in the Cape, accommodation can cost up to 50% more
  • Pre-booking of activities & attractions is essential

Our view

Fantastic: the very best time to visit

Weather in January

South Africa in February

In February conditions are largely the same as in January, although temperatures can be slightly higher, especially in the interior. The wind in Cape Town starts to ease off. Although the Garden Route can experience some rain, the days are pleasantly warm and largely dry.

The Kgalagadi remains very hot, but the birding is still excellent. Wildlife viewing can be tricky especially if there has been some rain, as the resulting long grass can obscure the animals.

For visitors it’s still the high season, but with the local school holidays over and residents back at work, it is less busy than December and January. Accommodation costs remain high and it’s still advisable to pre-book certain activities and restaurants.

  • Hot, largely dry days with little cloud
  • Wind starts easing in Cape Town
  • Slightly less busy than December & January
  • Accommodation costs remain high, activities still best pre-booked

Our view

Fantastic: the very best time to visit

Weather in February

South Africa in March

March is still a very good time to visit. Conditions remain dry and very warm in Cape Town, although temperatures start dropping off towards the end of the month. The wind has usually died right down.

The Kalahari remains very hot and in years of good rains vegetation is at its most lush – making wildlife viewing tricky.

Typically, the crowds dwindle, but it can get very busy if Easter falls in March. It is also worth bearing in mind that during major events in March, including the Cape Town Cycle Tour, Cape Epic Mountain Bike Tour, The Cape Town Carnival and the International Jazz Festival, accommodation can get very full.

Attractions remain busy but booking is less essential.

  • Temperatures start falling towards the end of the month
  • Cape Town hosts a number of world class sport and cultural events
  • Wildlife in the Kgalagadi disperses, game viewing more challenging
  • Crowds diminish as the high season comes to an end
  • Accommodation can get busy during major events

Our view

Fantastic: the very best time to visit

Weather in March

South Africa in April

April is South Africa’s “shoulder” season and is often the most pleasant. Not too hot, not too cold, some rain but not masses. In Cape Town and along the Garden Route days are usually sunny, warm, windless and largely dry, although in Cape Town the chance of rain increases from the end of the month.

In the Kgalagadi the rainy season is typically over and migratory birds are starting to make their journey back up North. Vegetation remains lush but wildlife viewing starts picking up towards the end of the month.

The region is still relatively busy (especially of its still Easter) but it gets quieter towards the end of the month thus availability improves. Accommodation rates start to decrease, and it becomes less important to book restaurants and attractions in advance.

  • Temperatures still warm and very pleasant, with little wind.
  • Rain starts easing in the Kalahari and migratory birds start to depart
  • Less busy, especially towards the end of the month - busy over Easter
  • Accommodation frees up and prices start to come down

Our view

A very good time to visit

Weather in April

South Africa in May

May marks the start of the dry season in the Kgalagadi. Days are warm and dry with almost zero rainfall. Night-time/early-morning temperatures can drop towards 0°C. Wildlife viewing is at its peak as animals concentrate around the few remaining water sources.

Days can still be warm and sunny in Cape Town and on the Garden Route, but the weather becomes a lot more variable. May heralds the start of the rainy season in Cape Town and the winelands. Night-time temperatures rarely drop below 10 degrees in the coastal areas.

With far fewer tourists, accommodation prices are at their lowest. There is rarely any need to pre-book activities, but reservations are still advisable at some of the top restaurants.

  • Higher chance of rain in Cape Town & the Winelands
  • Day time temperatures drop significantly
  • Wildlife viewing peaks in the Kgalagadi
  • Low season so rarely busy & very few crowds
  • Low season rates at the hotels & lodges

Our view

A good time to visit, with pros & cons

Weather in May

South Africa in June

Winter is now in full swing. Maximum temperatures in Cape Town rarely reach 20°C and the rainy season is well under way. Outdoor activities therefore become limited, but a number of high-quality indoor events are organised.

The Garden Route has, in general milder weather and less rain than Cape Town.

June sees the arrival of the first whales which migrate to the South African coastline to give birth.

In the Kgalagadi, daytime temperatures are warm but nights and early mornings are bitterly cold. Wildlife viewing is excellent as animals are drawn to the few remaining permanent water points.

Overall tourist numbers are at their lowest, as are the costs of flights and accommodation.

  • Cold & wet weather in Cape Town, Kgalagadi warm days but cold at night
  • One of the best months for wildlife viewing in the Kgalagadi
  • Whales start arriving to have their calves
  • Low visitor numbers & no crowds
  • Accommodation & flight prices remain low

Our view

A good time to visit, with pros & cons

Weather in June

South Africa in July

The winter weather continues with very cold nights and early mornings in the Kgalagadi and virtually no rainfall. Vegetation here is really thinning out now and water even more scarce – so wildlife is easy to spot.

Despite the winter and local school holidays, Cape Town remains a great place to visit. On a wet and cold day, the Two Oceans Aquarium, Zeitz Mocca (art museum) and the Cape Town Comedy Club all make for great days out, as does a trip to the wine country or the annual Oyster Festival at Knysna.

By mid-July most of the whales have arrived to give birth. Hermanus is the best place to see them.

At the height of the low season, so accommodation and flight prices remain low.

  • Generally cold & wet in the Cape, but good quality indoor events
  • Very good wildlife viewing in the Kgalagadi
  • Oyster festival in Knysna
  • Local school holidays can make places a little busier than usual
  • Accommodation and flight prices remain low

Our view

A good time to visit, with pros & cons

Weather in July

South Africa in August

While August experiences mostly wintry weather it does mark the very beginning of spring with temperatures starting to rise. Visitors are drawn to the West Coast and Namaqualand to see the wildflowers, which start blooming in late August and can be seen until mid-September. Whales are still in abundance now too.

The Kgalagadi is now very dry and wildlife vieiwng is still good. Temperatures start climbing towards the end of the month.

Despite the weather , visitor numbers can be high as the northern hemisphere schools close for their summer holidays. It may be a good idea to book certain attractions and restaurants in advance.

Simlarly, although accommodation prices are still low, flight prices can be a little higher than in previous months.

  • Temperatures start rising – but still potential for cold & wet weather
  • Wildflowers on the West Coast & in Namaqualand
  • Good wildlife viewing in the Kgalagadi
  • Whales continue to attract visitors
  • Can get busy due to northern hemisphere school summer holidays

Our view

A good time to visit, with pros & cons

Weather in August

South Africa in September

Good wildlife viewing in the Kgalagadi continues and daytime temperatures increase quite dramatically. Mornings and evenings are still on the chilly side, but not as cold as they are in June, July and August.

The 1st of September is officially the start of spring in Cape Town. Days become warmer but not quite warm enough to enjoy the city’s beautiful beaches. Venues all over Cape Town play host to various artists during the Cape Town Fringe Festival.
Rainy days are fewer, but night times can still get chilly. Many hotels are still charging low season rates making September great value for money.

Elsewhere, Hermanus hosts the popular annual Whale Festival, and in the West of the Cape, wildflowers continue to bloom until the middle of the month.

  • The start of spring; temperatures start rising
  • Whale festival in Hermanus
  • Cape Town Fringe Ferstival attracts a wide range of artists
  • Wildflowers blooming well until the middle of the month
  • Good wildlife viewing continues in the Kgalagadi

Our view

A very good time to visit

Weather in September

South Africa in October

The weather starts warming up nicely, Cape Town experiences pleasant days, with much less rain, nights can still be quite cool, but not cold. Some days are now warm enough to enjoy the beach. This is one of the best months to visit the Cape Region.

October is one of the hottest months in the Kalahari. Water remains very scarce, so the wildlife viewing is still very good. Towards the end of the month the odd spectacular thunderstorm is possible with much lightning and thunder. Migratory birds start to arrive, and resident species gear up for the breeding season.

The whales are still present with Hermanus and False Bay the best places to see them.

  • Days start warming up; fewer rainy days in Cape Town
  • Very hot in the Kalahari – thunderstorms season starts
  • Migratory birds start arriving & resident birds start breeding
  • Whale watching still excellent in Hermanus and False Bay areas
  • Start of the high season, getting busy and accommodation prices rise

Our view

A very good time to visit

Weather in October

South Africa in November

By November Cape Town is experiencing summer conditions with hot, clear days and warm, pleasant evenings. It’s a great month to enjoy the beaches before the peak holiday season in December. There are no real downsides to visiting in November and you may even get a few accommodation specials before prices go up for the festive season. Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens begins their summer outdoor concerts with local and international artists performing.

The Kgalagadi remains hot but thunderstorms are a bit more regular. With the rains, water sources become more plentiful and wildlife disperses but this is when herbivores such as Springbok start lambing. Photography improves as conditions become less hazy.

This is the last month for regular whale sightings – they tend to migrate back down south by early December.

  • Summer now in full swing, with temperatures often reaching 30°C
  • Rainy days scarce; evenings warm & very pleasant
  • Antelope start lambing in the Kgalagadi; wildlife generally dispersed
  • Last month for regular whale sightings
  • Good time to visit Cape Town before the peak holiday season

Our view

Weather in November

South Africa in December

December is usually Cape Town’s hottest month when temperatures frequently breach 30°C. You can expect hot and cloudless days, and almost no rain but December does see the occasional very windy day.

The Kalahari is still hot, but temperatures are not quite as high as previous months. With the rainfall the bush transforms into various shades of green. Wildlife disperses as water become more widely available.

The Garden Route enjoys warm to hot days with rain at any time but usually not over an extended period.

Mid to late December becomes incredibly busy with concerts, festivals and various outdoor activities in Cape Town. Hotel prices rise, tourist attractions and beaches are crowded and most popular sites and restaurants need to be booked in advance.

  • Long, hot sunny days
  • Kgalagadi bursts into life as rainy season kicks in
  • Wildlife viewing a bit trickier as wildlife disperses
  • Cape Town buzzing with concerts, events, festivals etc
  • Peak season: attractions get very busy & accommodation costs rise
