Rattray’s on MalaMala Reviews
“Rattrays is very elegant with our private villa having a his and her bathroom, and outdoor plunge pool. All overlook the river Sand so great game viewing from your window and verandah when animals come in to drink. Furnishings colonial style luxury. Food was great, but all buffet style. Our ranger was superb and went to great lengths to give us the best game drives ever tracking the animals we were seeking (wild dogs for one!). Mala Mala has abundant game so we saw the big five daily and with only four maximum to a vehicle you get very personalized attention. Wonderful place, highly recommend” –Petra M
“The accommodations were terrific but they were topped by the hospitality of the staff. Nick, our ranger outdid himself not only in our game drives but in our breakfast in the bush but our sundowners! Couldn’t have asked for a better time.” –irishwake1
“what an experience! We have travelled widely and found this place excellent in every way. The ranger was expert at his job and very nice in addition. As the animals can roam freely from within the Kruger Park and at this camp we quickly saw many, not just the big five. The area is quite beautiful also, along a river and with a variety of bush and grasslands. The property itself is more than five star. Our “room” was a free standing private bungalow, very well furnished, with its own plunge pool, two huge bathrooms and large bedroom/lounge room. Even a flat screen TVS and Internet. Meals were delicious and more than plentiful, you did not feel you were in the bush while dining or in your accommodation, but once in the Land Rover outside the gates, there was immediately the wild. Cannot imagine a better experience” –medmar_10
