Women, Wilderness & Wonder

A Lodge Made for Connection

Makumu’s intimate and exclusive setting is ideal for a group of friends or family who want to make memories without the distractions of the outside world.

With only a handful of suites, the lodge feels like a private home in the wild, except with every comfort you could dream of.

Think spacious rooms with breathtaking views, personalised service, and the warm hospitality that makes every guest feel special.

Adventure You’ll Share Forever

From your very first morning game drive, you and your friends will find yourselves in awe of the wildlife that surrounds you.

Whether it’s the thrill of tracking elephants through the bush or the quiet wonder of spotting a leopard in the golden evening light, each moment becomes a story you’ll retell for years to come.

Your group can also enjoy guided bush walks, where you’ll discover the smaller wonders of the wilderness — animal tracks, fascinating plants, and the untold secrets of the savannah.

Relaxation with a View

Between adventures, unwind on the lodge deck with a chilled glass of wine in hand, watching giraffes wander past in the distance. Take a refreshing dip in the pool, lose yourself in a book, or simply soak up the silence that only the bush can offer.

Evenings of Laughter and Celebration

As the sun sets, the sky turns into a masterpiece of colour, and the air fills with the sounds of the night.

Dinners at Makumu are more than just meals — they’re experiences, whether you’re dining under a canopy of stars or enjoying a fireside feast in the boma.

It’s in these moments: sharing stories, toasting to friendship, and feeling the warmth of the fire that bonds grow even stronger.

Why Women’s Month is the Perfect Time

Women’s Month is a reminder to celebrate not only what we’ve achieved but also the connections that sustain us.

A Makumu getaway offers the rare chance to press pause, focus on the people who matter most, and indulge in something extraordinary.

Whether it’s a birthday, a milestone, or simply the joy of being together, there’s no better setting than the untamed beauty of the African bush.

This August, gather your tribe, pack your sense of adventure, and escape to Makumu where every sunrise brings new possibilities, and every sunset reminds you how special life’s moments can be.
