Masiyas Camp at Royal Malewane

Masiya’s Camp at Royal Malewane

Discover a contemporary tented safari camp that redefines wilderness luxury. Masiya’s Camp at Royal Malewane honors the legacy of legendary master tracker Wilson Masiya, blending modern design with deep respect for nature. Set within South Africa’s Greater Kruger National Park, the camp features six expansive tented suites, each with a private heated plunge pool overlooking the bushveld. Bespoke interiors, from Indian doors to Persian rugs and Marrakech-inspired décor, create an atmosphere of global artistry and African soul.

Balancing safari authenticity with architectural flair, Masiya’s Camp delivers a bold interpretation of life under canvas. Each of the six 230m² tented suites includes a private deck, heated plunge pool, and spacious lounge framed by vast views of the Thornybush wilderness. Interiors blend vintage florals, hand-carved Indian doors and earthy tones with contemporary South African craftsmanship, with modern comforts like underfloor heating. Central to the camp, the glass-walled lounge and bar merge seamlessly with the outdoors, leading to an elegant dining tent with an open kitchen, wood-fired pizza oven, and outdoor braai (BBQ) area. The guiding team, among the most qualified in Africa, offers twice-daily game drives, walking safaris, and photographic excursions. For wellness and indulgence, visit the Royal Waters Spa and gym at nearby Malewane Lodge. Every detail reflects The Royal Portfolio’s ethos: conservation, community upliftment, and genuine connection with place.
