About Us
Amakoekoe Guest House / Lodge is located in Honeydew, where owners André and Sanet Koekemoer officially opened the guest house in August 2002, naming it "Amakoekoe" as an amusing play on their surname “Koekemoer" interpreted as "ama" meaning "the" and "koekoe" as an abbreviation of "Koekemoer".

Amakoekoe Guesthouse is surrounded by carefully maintained, vibrant gardens. In this tranquil paradise, indigenous bird life is abundant, and the unrivalled hospitality makes every stay an unforgettable experience. The guest house has a distinctly African elegance and is decorated throughout with breathtaking hand-crafted works of art.

We are conveniently situated 50km from O.R Tambo International and 20km from Lanseria Airport, and our shuttle service will ensure that both your traveling and accommodation needs are met.
