Makoko’s Lifestyle Lodge

Makoko’s Lifestyle Lodge.

Nestled on a tranquil hill in Zakariyya Park, Johannesburg, Makoko's is a hidden gem where hospitality meets conversation, and where every gathering is intentionally curated to create memorable

experiences. More than a boutique lodge, Makoko's is a destination for thinkers, dreamers, leaders,

entrepreneurs, families, and communities seeking a refreshing escape from the noise of everyday life.

Named after Maria's grandmother, Makoko embodies a legacy of resilience, courage, sacrifice, and service. These values continue to shape the Lodge's purpose: creating a welcoming space where

meaningful conversations flourish, relationships are built, and ideas are born.

Whether hosting intimate celebrations, executive retreats, strategic meetings, providing bed & breakfast accomodation, conferences, wellness experiences, or bespoke social gatherings, Makoko's offers a unique blend of exclusivity, warmth, and inspiration.

Perched above the city yet close enough for convenience, it provides the perfect setting to pause, reflect, celebrate, and reconnect.
