Ancient history and hidden luxury in the Matobo Hills
Tucked within the granite boulders of the Matobo Hills, Amalinda Lodge offers a safari experience rich in both natural beauty and cultural depth. This unique lodge is built into the rocks themselves, blending seamlessly with the surrounding landscape and honoring the spiritual legacy of this UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Guests at Amalinda can explore a region steeped in history—from ancient San Bushman rock art to the burial site of Cecil Rhodes. Game drives and guided walks reveal a landscape teeming with wildlife, including white rhino, leopard, and a vibrant array of bird species. Cultural excursions to local villages further enrich the experience, providing insight into the traditions of the Ndebele people.
The lodge’s individually designed suites are nestled between the rocks, offering a rare sense of intimacy and tranquility. With thoughtful touches like a rock pool, spa, and library, Amalinda Lodge is ideal for travelers seeking both relaxation and connection—to nature, culture, and self.
