SAFARI SWANK

New thatching, upgraded suites and a bush bar worthy of Out of Africa author Karen Blixen are some of the tweaks at Royal Malewane, the luxury lodge in South Africa’s Greater Kruger National Park. The rakishly styled suites blend colonial charm with modern touches, including air-conditioning and plunge pools. Get exhilaratingly close to the Big Five, experience luxe spa treatments and feast under the stars. At the end of the day, toast your excursions with one of 50 whiskies at the bar that looks over a watering hole. theroyalportfolio.com
