Malala Lodge | Game Lodges & Resorts Hluhluwe

Whether you are looking to experience Zulu culture, the Big 5 or the vast wetlands of St Lucia, Malala Lodge provides you with the perfect base from which to explore the majestic beauty of the Elephant Coast in South Africa's Zulu Kingdom.

Our Lodge is located in the Hluhluwe area, in the centre of the Elephant Coast in the province of Kwa-Zulu Natal... ideally positioned between the world renowned Hluhluwe-Imfolosi Game Reserve, Mkhuze Game Reserve, Sodwana Bay and the Greater St Lucia Wetland Park.

Malala is situated on a 300 acre private nature reserve and, as we accommodate a maximum of eighteen guests, you will be assured of a tranquil African bush atmosphere and experience.

Malala is owned and managed by the Harvey family who, together with a very enthusiastic team of staff, are always on hand to provide the personal attention you deserve.

The main thatched lodge is centrally positioned within the camp and overlooks indigenous forest. Here guests can enjoy a relaxing drink in the cosy bush pub or take a dip in the sparkling palm-fringed swimming pool.

We can accommodate guests on a self-catering basis, or if you would prefer, indulge yourself in genuine home-cooked meals either in the attractive thatched dining room or a traditional South African barbeque under the stars in an open-air "Boma". Accommodation is provided in various units, set in and on the verge of the sand forest.
