A great rustic-modern aesthetic hotel designed by Heinz Legler in Mexico with amazing views to the ocean.

There are many ways to build employee quarters, temporary housing for those who decide to come work for a season at Verana. An experiment which turned out to be exciting to design, to build and after all to live in. . This rustic-modern aesthetic hotel was designed by Heinz Legler, who used to own a film set construction company and Veronique Lievre, previously a set decorator, from Paris. They started this project as their personal hideaway, but it ended up construction an hotel in a 5 acre area, with infinity pool, spa, restaurants, yoga hut and 8 guest rooms.

At the edge of the Marico River and under a grove of Tamboti and Marula trees alike, you will find yourself enchanted by a world of intrigue and majestic beauty.

Madikwe Hills is where the plains still team with game and the acacia savannah symbolizes a paragon of beauty.

Black rhino roam freely amongst the Big 5. Giraffe gallop across the plains at sunset and zebra call out to one another in the early hours of the morning, after enduring a night of the “savage beast” upon the plains – lion.

After a mere 45 minute flight from Gauteng, or a scenic four hour drive, you will be met by our warm and friendly staff in the main reception area.

It is here where you can select gifts for your friends and family back home from our curio shop, which boasts a breath-taking view of the boulders and rocks of Madikwe Hills – open landrovers with bucket seats and fold-down armrests stand ready to take you on safari.
