Welcome To Makaranga Garden Lodge, Kloof, Greater Durban Area
Makaranga Garden Lodge, 25 km from Durban, is set amongst 30 acres of lush botanical gardens in the sub-tropical village of Kloof in Kwazulu-Natal. Makaranga's philosphy revolves around providing an opportunity for enjoyment, as well as rejuvenation, to those people who have a physical disability. The feeling behind this is that many wheel-chair users are restricted and Makaranga is one of the few resorts in the world that provides disabled GUESTS an opportunity to enjoy luxurious facilities.
The gardens comprise a riverine dominated by magnificent Macaranga trees, a prized collection of camellias, rhododendrons, magnolias and a variety of orchids, as well as an array of indigenous plant life.
Accommodation comprises 21 spacious, air-conditioned bedrooms, all en-suite, individually furnished, with internet connection and satellite TV.
Dining is an occasion at Makaranga, with three meals served daily, while the Tuscan Tea Garden offers breakfast and refreshments overlooking the Venus Pond.
