MalaMala Sable Camp symbolises well-designed luxury in an intimate and private setting for the ultimate safari experience.
MalaMala Sable Camp (situated alongside MalaMala Main Camp) is perfect for visitors who desire tranquillity and exclusivity. The 5 luxury suites of the Camp accommodate a maximum of 14 guests, overlooking the banks of the Sand River on an elevated position. Staying at this lodge will help you to get truly in touch with the pure African nature that surrounds the Camp. Go out and discover it to the fullest on a game drive guided by highly experienced ranger who will make sure that you don’t miss anything.
Imbued with the spirit of MalaMala, the Sable Camp is a more intimate version of the Main Camp and the choice for those seeking a more private and intimate safari. Situated at the southern end of the MalaMala Camp in a prime elevated position overlooking the Sand River and surrounding bushveld, Sable Camp accommodates a maximum of 14 guests. It may also be reserved exclusively for between 10 & 18 guests. MalaMala Sable Camp shares some of the Main Camps facilities such as the Boma, Spa and Curio shop areas.
Accommodation
Each of the five Mala Mala Sable Camp suites are uniquely decorated with a personal touch and provides a top level of comfort, with ‘his’ and ‘hers’ bathrooms, temperature control, mini bar and bathroom amenities. Sleep under traditional thatching to experience true Africa and overlook the beautiful surroundings from the private veranda. After a perfect day in the bush, relax and enjoy your dinner in the traditional African boma under the stars or on the wooden deck with panoramic views on the beautiful surroundings and animal life on the Sand riverbanks. Next to the 5 suites, there is also the Lions Den Suite, which accommodates 4 guests in two en-suite bedrooms separated by a large living room with the same luxurious and comfortable interior as the other suites. This makes Sable Camp perfect for families, groups and two couples. Rattray’s Camp may also be exclusively booked by groups between ten to eighteen guests.
