Royal Malewane is situated within the greater Kruger National Park and accommodates 20 guests. It is ideal for an exclusive getaway, privacy, personalised service and amongst the best game viewing Africa has to offer.

Elevated walkways link six free-standing luxurious suites to the library shop, dining and reception areas. Game viewing provides guests with the best opportunities for seeing the natural abundance of big game. An expert ranger and master tracker of Royal Malewane, home of the “Big Five”, will accompany guests on a game drive to view the natural abundance of big game. Game viewing is tailored to guests’ individual needs, either by open Land Rover or on foot.

Breakfast is served after an early morning game drive and afternoon game drive and sundowners follow the high tea. A night drive in search of exciting nocturnal game is followed by dinner, which may be served under the stars or with silver and crystal in the dining areas.

The main camp complex is the heart of Royal Malewane. African thatched-roof buildings house the library, shop, dining and reception areas. Furnished with rich antiques and Persian carpets, every fitting creates the feel of original colonial elegance.

There is a wonderful new gym and spa facility offering health and skincare therapy by internationally qualified in-house therapists. Guests may enjoy a treatment of their choice at the luxurious spa or in the sala, with only nature surrounding them. Alternatively, they may relax with a treatment in the complete privacy of their own suite.

Set amongst indigenous vegetation, each suite has its own spectacular outdoor terrace with private pool and gazebo. The suites incorporate an air-conditioned bedroom/sitting room with fireplace, mini bar, antique canopied king-size bed and extravagant bathroom with a window-side Victorian bath and indoor and outdoor showers.
