aha Makalali Main Lodge

Located west of Kruger National Park, this ethnic-style retreat resides within a 26,000 hectare conservancy in the north eastern Lowveld. Here, the echoes of Africa are everywhere, with its thatched spires and earthy walls, ancient mystical ornaments and Pan African cuisine, you’re surrounded by the untamed bushveld yet cosseted by the warm service and all the comforts of a truly unique resort. Between game drives, unwind beside the swimming pool, perhaps head to the spa to indulge in a therapeutic treatment or, sit on the camp’s spacious viewing deck and gaze out over the bushveld or at the wildlife visiting the waterhole. During your stay, look forward to feasting on tantalising cuisine at the indoor-outdoor area or, gather with fellow guests and enjoy a true taste of Africa with a legendary boma dinner under the stars. The contemporary Main Lodge has rooms spread across three detached river-facing units, ideally positioned with optimum vantage points over the surrounding bush.
