Luxury Holidays At MalaMala Rattray's Camp

Nestled within the magical MalaMala Game Reserve, the original and one of the largest private Big Five reserves in South Africa, the adults-only Rattray’s Camp is the perfect base from which to enjoy the ultimate safari experience. After a warm welcome from the wonderful team, settle into your freestanding Khaya (Zulu for ‘home’) and get set to head into the wildlife-filled bushveld. Following your day encountering South Africa’s most magnificent game and birdlife, unwind with a massage or take a dip in your private plunge pool. Rare African books and artwork await in the elegant library, while an air-conditioned dining room, river-facing dining deck and historic bar ensure complete comfort on your luxury South African safari. Sumptuous home-cooked meals are served in a variety of locations - from the wildlife-viewing safari deck and the elegant dining room, to the privacy of your own Khaya or in the charming boma – alongside exquisite South African wine.
