14 luxury suites lie along the camp’s perimeter and are designed to allow absolute privacy and a communion between the bush and its inhabitants.

Each of the air-conditioned suites at Mashatu Lodge is tastefully decorated and includes impressive black and white prints of Africa’s most beautiful animals. A double bed and an extra-large single bed, together with a seating area that includes a single day bed, comfortably accommodates families. En-suite bathroom with both bath and shower facilities and a separate W.C. complete the well-appointed suites. Private patio with outdoor seating provides tranquil spots for mediative unwinding throughout the day.

Two large swimming pools, including an infinity pool overlooking an active watering hole, are a focal point to cool down and relax between game activities.

Meals are a sumptuous celebration of traditional African Cuisine. Fresh fruits, vegetables, home-made breads and pies, succulent meat dishes and delicious desserts appeal to guests who appreciate home cooking at its best.

With a fully stocked curio shop for retail therapy, Discovery Room offering a glimpse into another world with ancient relics that will amaze, and a bespoke on-site spa offering rejuvenating and natural treatments – Mashatu Lodge has something for everyone in the family.

Watch elephants splashing at the waterhole, listen to the lyrical melody of the woodlands kingfisher on a branch overhead, smell the grassy scent of the bushveld, touch the bark of an ancient tree and inhale a breath of air so pure, it’s intoxicating.
