The stay
A five-suite Mabula retreat built around privacy
Kingfisher Villa Suites is much smaller than the main Mabula lodges. Five dam-facing suites share elegant villa spaces, a rim-flow pool and highly personalised service, with the whole property available for private use.
Strong for celebrations and small private groups
Choose it when the experience needs to feel private, quiet and residential rather than like a conventional safari lodge.
