Overview of Royal Malewane Africa House
A rainbow treasure box in the heart of the greater Kruger National Park: Africa House at Royal Malewane is a trove of colour, texture, history and art.
Pass through the fortress-like, studded doors into a fairytale safari house where up to a dozen of your loved ones can enjoy the thrill of the wilderness or the pampering services in residence.
Deeply individual with a palette that runs the gamut of the rainbow and a glorious collection of objet and furniture, Africa House is one of the most original self-contained holiday homes on the continent. Referencing the grandeur of safaris past while making the most of modern creature comforts, all six jewel-coloured bedrooms offer riveting views of the game-laden wilderness.
When you are not out on your private 4×4 vehicle quietly tracking a magnificent rhino or a pride of lionesses on the prowl, take a swim, nibble what your chef has whipped up, get in a workout in the gym or de-stress with a massage – all in complete privacy and tranquillity. Africa House is also ideal for children and Royal Malewane makes a special effort to welcome them.

General Facilities
Think ‘Baroque in the bush’: like an empress’s jewellery chest, Africa House dazzles with peacock colours, ornate detail and offbeat details. Wake up in a 4-poster bed that was hand carved in Mombasa and is now draped in a froth of muslin, and wallow in an old-fashioned slipper bath tub in your enormous en suite bathroom. In the morning, take breakfast on the pretty terrace next to the watering hole – where antelope and elephants will also be having their first drinks for the day – and, that night, stretch out on the tan leather sofas with a nightcap in the art-and-antique-adorned living area and swap stories about your day.
