Royal Malewane
South Africa
Royal Malewane places a safari stay in Thornybush, on the western side of the Greater Kruger area. At the original Malewane Lodge, a former family holiday home has developed into a lodge with a traditional bush style and spacious accommodation. Luxury Suites include private heated pools, outdoor salas and both indoor and outdoor showers. The larger Royal Suites add two bedrooms and private services, including a chef, host and safari vehicle with a guide and tracker. Twice-daily game drives structure the stay, while the spa gives guests a quieter way to spend the hours between outings. Wildlife may also appear near the lodge, making time on a private deck part of the wider experience. Royal Malewane suits travellers who want a safari with generous personal space. The choice between a lodge suite and a privately staffed arrangement is particularly useful for couples or families planning how much independence they want.
