Seclusion is the best word to describe the suites at the Royal Malewane.

The plunge pool of the suite might even be used by passing elephants to sneak a drink from it is that close up and personal.

Elevated walkways link the suites to the main lodge continues the old colonial theme in its furnishings, and even dining is in keeping with the best china silver and crystal.

The service is exceptional, and the food is exceptional, with a great wine list It is extraordinary the first time you look up from the dinner table in the middle of a sumptuous feast to see a group of elephants walking by..

Royal Malewane is at once luxury, and then unforgettable, and thirdly almost without fault. Places don’t come much better than this, with a maximum of sixteen guests in the Thornybush Game Reserve area right next to the Kruger National Park. This is the home to lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, rhino amongst others, and to over 250 recorded birs species. This will give you one of the best game viewing experiences in South Africa if not all of Africa.

The Kruger National Park South Africa has many quality lodges but nothing like Royal Malewane which somehow manages to combine colonial splendour with the quality of hospitality and facilities associated with the best traditions of the 21st Century.

Of course you take a South Africa Game Safari to see game, and you will find that the staff do all in their power to ensure you see what you want to see, with great rangers and trackers to ensure this happens, and their enthusiasm and knowledge is huge.

The Royal Malewane has to be seen to be believed. It really is the place to stay for the Kruger National Park, and it will give you a totally memorable South Africa Game Safari Vacation.
