It’s time to redefine your expectations of luxury in the bush. Jamala is characterised by understated African elegance with a strong emphases on quality and abundance – evident at every turn. From masterfully crafted cuisine to the astonishingly rich wildlife beyond its doors.

Tucked away in the far north of South Africa is a 75000 hectare, malaria-free wilderness inhabited by a profusion of species from vervet monkeys to leopard and – of course – the odd very fortunate human. Madikwe is widely acknowledged as being one of the finest conservation areas in Africa. The sheer unadulterated wilderness of this place is breath-taking, as is this remarkable lodge – crafted from an exquisite palate of rich woods, raw stone and soft muted tones.

Elegantly proportioned suites offer individual rim-flow pools, sweeping wooden decks and private outdoor showers. Guest facilities are of the highest quality whilst service is attentive and warm, never intrusive. Designer dining is of the highest standard and a team of chef’s under the tutelage of chef Nico prepare gourmet dishes for guests who dine in plush surrounds at the long wooden dining room table, under the stars or in the privacy of their beautifully appointed villas.
