Royal Malewane – Africa House

A Family Affair

Children of all ages are welcomed by an enthusiastic team of friendly faces at Africa House. The 6 private suites are conducive to a relaxed family safari experience all the while managing to show off all the bells and whistles of top-end luxury. The spacious outside pool with views over forests of gnarled Marula Trees attract herds of elephant not only to the thirst-quenching smell of fresh water, but also to the Marula berries – an elephant’s irresistible temptation. There is nothing more truly African than sharing a drink with an African elephant!

The house is kitted out with board games and puzzles and deep sofas affront a television to entertain the children. Adults then have the space to indulge in exclusive peace over a glass of French Champagne or treat themselves to a therapeutic massage at the Royal Malewane Bush Spa, consistently voted the best spa experience in Africa.
By the end of your stay you will consider your private butler, chef and ranger as part of your family and what’s more the affectionate feelings will most likely be genuinely mutual.

Confidently eclectic

Walking through the fortress-like doors into the confidently eclectic interior of Africa House, injects an immediate wanderlust to explore the rest of the spacious villa.  The interiordesign at Royal Malewane Africa House is stylishly fun.  The kaleidoscope of colours in each of the six suites, make bold cultural statements.  Hand-crafted beds have been brought all the way from Mombasa and the view from each king-size throne outperform the next.

Unique positioning

Africa House is uniquely placed in the heart of the lively wilderness which makes for an unbeatable bush orchestra and incredible birding opportunities. It is also just a short drive from the main lodge giving guests the option of using the luxurious spa and gym facilities in between game drives.

Treasures on tailored safaris

There are few lodges that can offer guests such quality wildlife sightings. Highly qualified guide and tracker teams at Africa House tailor each game drive to suit your interests, interpreting the immense biodiversity of the surroundings within the 11 500 hectare reserve. Photography is a passion for many of the Royal Malewane guides and they are enthusiastic about assisting guests with their photographic requirements. Especially unique to Royal Malewane Africa House’s safari experience is the healthy population of black rhino on the reserve. This is an extremely rare and shy species and a sighting should be considered a once-in-a-lifetime privilege.
