Enjoy your stay

Welcome to Hakunamatata Country Estate

Tucked away in the heart of Muldersdrift, Hakunamatata Country Estate is a rustic country retreat where nature, comfort, and relaxation come together effortlessly. Surrounded by towering trees, abundant birdlife, and peaceful gardens, our estate offers a true escape from the rush of everyday life — yet remains conveniently close to key attractions.

We offer accommodation for up to 16 guests sharing in eight charming, free-standing cottages, each thoughtfully designed to provide comfort, privacy, and scenic garden views. Whether you’re visiting for a romantic getaway, a weekend break, or a business stay, our cottages provide a calm and welcoming home away from home.

Relaxation is at the heart of the Hakunamatata experience. Our on-site relaxation spa features outdoor massage lapas, allowing guests to enjoy soothing treatments while immersed in the sounds and serenity of the garden — a truly unique and rejuvenating experience.

Food and leisure are equally well catered for at our on-site restaurant, Harvested Flavour, where delicious, thoughtfully prepared meals are served. Guests can unwind at the bar and terrace area, enjoy cosy picnic spots, or cool off in the outdoor swimming pool on warm summer days.

Perfectly positioned, Hakunamatata Country Estate is just 5.8 km from Cradlestone Mall, 18 km from the Cradle of Humankind, and 12 km from Lanseria International Airport, making it an ideal base for both leisure travellers and business guests.

Whether you’re seeking rest, nature, fine food, or gentle indulgence, Hakunamatata Country Estate invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and simply enjoy — Hakuna Matata, No Worries!

Enjoy…

I had a spa appointment for the day, and i must say, i was impressed with the service and also the new Menu. I would recommend Hakunamatata to anyone who is looking for a very quiet, serene environment to unwind and just relax.

When I was there the generator was in for repairs and the room I was in did not have WiFi access and being there on business it was inconvenient. Other than that the place is good. Nice location good restaurant and friendly staff, all I would ask is that they get DStv. I will go back

We had our year end function there, it was a nice place to chill and relax, food was okay - flies were a bit of a problem though, drinks a bit pricey but we had fun

Spa treatment is out of this world. You forget that you're in joburg. If you are looking for a place that is nature like , this is the place . It has a restaurant inside.
