Rates:
6 January – 27th December 2022: $ 7 600 per person sharing
* From 10th January - 31st March 2022 and 1st November - 15th December 2022, MalaMala Camp has a stay 4 pay 3 special, thus during these dates, you will receive an additional night on the house. Do note that the compulsory community levy at MalaMala Camp for this complimentary night is to be settled directly at the camp as it is not included in the package.
Please bear in mind we do have special offers available at Azura Benguerra that can give you even better value if you stay a little longer such as Azura honeymoon special or Azura Benguerra free night special.
We can combine any properties together so if you have another lodge or beach resort in mind, please do not hesitate to request a competitive, no-obligation quote from us.
For example, MalaMala (Luxury Suites) and Anantara Bazaruto (Deluxe Sea View Pool Villa) (using boat transfers to the island) package costs per person sharing would be:
6th January - 31st January 2022: US$ 5 650
1st February - 26th December 2022: US$ 6 100
Please note: We also have honeymoon specials on 4 night stays so if it is your honeymoon, the rate will be much lower or if you want to stay longer at the beach, there are long-stay offers at both Azura and Anantara Bazaruto.
MalaMala Game Reserve
At a mammoth 13 200 ha (33 000 acres), MalaMala lies sandwiched between the Sabi Sand Game Reserve and the world-famous Kruger National Park. The 19 km (12 miles) unfenced border with this massive wildlife conservancy provides unimpeded access to wildlife. Of great appeal to such wildlife is the vast array of MalaMala’s habitat types - ranging from open savannah to dense riparian zones and granite outcrops. But perhaps the strongest allure to wildlife is the perennial Sand River of which 13 km (8 miles) flow through the reserve. It’s this habitat diversity – and sound conservation management – that has earned MalaMala a reputation as the foremost game viewing destination in the world.
While it’s become the exception rather than the rule for all members of the Big Five not to be seen on a single day, MalaMala’s certainly not just about the big and hairy. MalaMala is a sanctuary for rare and endangered wildlife where nature lovers may see threatened animals such as cheetahs, pangolins, and the wild dog – Africa’s second most endangered carnivore! The variety of bird-life in the reserve regularly rewards even the most seasoned ornithologist with surprising finds: the martial eagle and ground hornbill for instance.
Activities range from walking safaris to 4x4 safaris which may include sumptuous bush breakfasts, picnic lunches, and the opportunity to quaff sundowners as the sun sets behind the dusty horizon. Outdoor activities are led by highly qualified rangers, most of who have university degrees in the natural sciences and are thoroughly conversant with all aspects of bushveld ecology. To optimize the guests’ game viewing experience, trackers from the Shangaan tribe collaborate closely with their rangers. These Shangaan trackers have a fabled understanding of the bushveld passed down through the ages by their fathers and their fathers’ fathers.
The ochre-colored buildings of MalaMala Main Camp are clustered amid shady trees and manicured lawns overlooking the Sand River. The individually decorated, spacious, and comfortable rooms under traditional thatching offer spectacular views of the river, a waterhole, and the wild- and birdlife that are attracted to the water for refreshment and refuge from the hot African sun. The rooms are equipped with ‘his-and-hers’ bathrooms, 24-hour temperature control, insect proofing, direct dial telephones, a mini-bar, and a mini-safe. Despite the comfort offered, MalaMala retains an authentic bushveld camp atmosphere, where the attention to detail for which MalaMala is world-famous shines through.
MalaMala rates include:
Air-conditioned, en-suite accommodation in a luxury suite (will be less on a luxury room),
All meals and snacks plus drinks (excluding premium brands),
Game drives in open 4-wheel drive safari vehicles conducted by an experienced ranger,
Nature walks,
Transfers to and from the MalaMala Game Reserve airstrip,
Laundry – maximum 10 items per room per day (minimum 2 nights).
