Deo Volente is situated 5 km outside of Thabazimbi on the road to Marakele National Park. We pride ourselves in the fact that we are more than just a guest house. Our 7 luxury bedrooms are set in serene tranquility and our dinner menu is unparalleled in the entire area. Whether you are a leisure or business traveller, Deo Volente will exceed your wildest expectations. Set on 8Ha of prime Bushveld, it is a nature lover’s dream, with dams and ponds, beautiful gardens and a huge variety of animal life.
Deo Volente Guest Lodge offers much more than just a room. We have managed to create a piece of paradise in the climatically otherwise harsh Bushveld environment. The three man-made dams have berthed entirely new ecosystems, complete with unique and abundant wild life. Our central lounge and dining room area is equipped with a fireplace for cold winter nights and other features include a built-in barbecue and a swimming pool. Self-catering options are also available.
If you are looking for accommodation in Thabazimbi, there is simply no other choice. Walk amongst our tame Springbok, Nyala & Impala and if you are lucky, one of them might even eat from your hand during snack time in the late afternoon. Our prolific bird life have attracted bird watchers from around the globe. Come see rare species like the Rare Green Pidgeon and Crakes, indigenous water birds, Barn Owl, a variety of duck and geese and of course, our resident Grey Heron breeding pair.
The culinary conscious should look no further. We are renowned for our fine dining and excellent home cooking. Our philosophy is life is too short to have a bad meal. We have wooed Kings & Presidents alike with our sumptuous dining experience.
Our spacious rooms are all en-suite and tastefully decorated by the world-renowned Earthbound Interiors. Just looking at the pictures of our rooms and it will make you sleepy and urge you to book your holiday with us.
Deo Volente simply offers the best overall experience in the area. Our entire approach is perhaps best summarized by our slogan: Fine Dining, Serene Tranquility, Natural Beauty.

Nice stay. Everything was clean and tidy. Received friendly reception and service.
The place to sleep is something from another world, the service provided is top notch and the friendliness and thoughtfulness of the staff is contagious.
If you want to relax, this is the place to visit, very clean room and linen, great breakfast. We will definitely be back!
We were warmly greeted and everything was nicely explained and shown to us. The rooms and bathrooms are super neat and spacious. Breakfast was some of the best ever. Had so many options even though it was only me and my little girl who stayed in guest house. Felt very special indeed.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Beautiful setting and very friendly hosts!
Reception was hospitable and the place had everything we needed. We enjoyed relaxing on the stoep and breakfast was delicious. Definitely worth it.
We had a wonderful time!
Thank you very much for a wonderful weekend in a clean, stylish and hospitable environment with beautiful scenery. Deo Volente can be recommended at any time.
Warmly welcomed and immediately felt at home. Here you can relax. Top quality linen on the bed. Every meal top notch. Five star experience!

Just a stone's throw from Thabazimbi, nice and out of town, but close enough for groceries. The garden is lush and green and beautiful, with a dam where the frogs happily croak at night - it is very special. People who don't like nature might find it irritating, especially because it is so loud. You have to be aware that the premises, even though the main house and guesthouse are separated, is a dog paradise with the owner's two Great Danes and a Jack Russel. It provided me with great pleasure to pet the creatures, even though they played in the aforementioned dam and smeared mud on me. Our hostess did say that they don't generally come to the guesthouse though. For some people the dogs will be a pleasure, but for people who are scared of dogs the two Great Danes might upset them, but that is a personal choice. The breakfast was delicious, and the ladies who prepared it was friendly and professional. We were two women and it was so nice to have a man on hand to carry our luggage. He was also very kind. The hostess was very friendly and everyone can speak Afrikaans. For those looking for privacy the communal breakfast table might be an issue. A small library is available with a nice sitting room and patio where you can sit and read. Guests have access to the kitchen which was quite nice. The room and en suite bathroom was well equipped including a bar fridge and chocolate on the pillow. The swimming pool was nice and clean. There are however a few tasks that need to be done in the room we stayed in, like the ceiling that is sinking in in the one corner.
Great stay. Very private and comfortable and exceptionally well equipped. Even reading material! Beautiful surroundings. Would love to go again.
Beautiful guest house with exceptional owners who know what hospitality means. Will definitely visit again.
Pleasant surroundings and wildlife an absolute plus.
The breakfast was delicious. Everyone very friendly and helpful. We had a really nice stay and didn't feel uncomfortable.
