The ochre colored buildings are clustered amid shady trees and manicured lawns overlooking the Sand River.

The individually decorated, spacious and comfortable rooms under traditional thatching, enjoy spectacular views and are equipped with “his” and “hers” bathrooms, 24 hour temperature control, insect proofing, direct dial telephones, a mini-bar and a mini safe.

Despite the comfort offered, Mala Mala retains an authentic camp atmosphere, where the attention to detail for which Mala Mala is world famous is obvious.

Dinner, where one may enjoy venison specialties and haute bush cuisine is served in the grand old African manner, under the stars in a reed enclosed boma, a Mala Mala tradition for over 60 years.

Seated around a log fire, under the starry African sky, enjoying superb food and outstanding South African wines is yet another highlight of the Mala Mala experience.

The spacious, beautifully decorated Buffalo lounge displaying bronzes, works of art and animal trophies leads onto an expansive wooden deck which provides an elevated view of animals watering in the Sand River.

The luxury and comfort of the camp, combined with the exhilarating game drives and guided walks in beautiful un-spoilt wilderness dramatized by the close encounters with Africa’s game, big and small, is incomparable.
