About Samara Manor House

Spanning 28,000 hectares (70,000 acres) of untouched wilderness, Samara Private Game Reserve offers an extraordinary malaria-free safari experience for wildlife enthusiasts. The Manor's distinctive, inviting design seamlessly blends local culture and traditions with a contemporary flair. Guests are welcomed through glass double doors adorned with African beaded artwork and Karoo antiques, leading to the 21-metre infinity pool and stunning panoramic views.

The Manor is available exclusively, making it an excellent choice for families or groups seeking seclusion, opulence, and ultimate relaxation. Visitors benefit from a private vehicle, guide, chef, and host, along with a customized itinerary of activities.

Accommodation

The Manor is a sophisticated 4-suite villa, standing out as a luxurious retreat in the semi-desert landscape. Designed for exclusive use, it accommodates families or groups of up to eight people. The property features four lavish suites, each with an en-suite bathroom, a wrap-around veranda, and a large infinity pool.

Each suite is generously proportioned, offering a bedroom and an en-suite bathroom equipped with a walk-in shower and a free-standing bath. Every suite also includes a private patio with outdoor seating, providing breathtaking views of the surrounding mountain landscape.

Dining

Guests dine in a beautifully designed dining room adjacent to a comfortable bar area. A smaller breakfast room, located next to the kitchen, can also serve as a study. When the weather is pleasant, candlelit dinners are served on the veranda beneath a Jacaranda tree adorned with purple flowers or in the bush under a starry sky. Pre-dinner drinks are enjoyed in the Karoo-style boma, crafted from a repurposed water reservoir, offering a cozy spot around the fire.

Living Spaces

The Manor combines intimacy with spaciousness, providing ample areas for both privacy and relaxation. It features two main living areas and smaller alcoves for lounging. In winter, guests can gather around the fireplace, while in summer, large glass doors open to blend the indoor and outdoor spaces.

Activities & Services

When booked exclusively, The Manor accommodates up to 8 adults, with additional space for a limited number of children. Guests enjoy exclusive access to a private vehicle, ranger, chef, and host, along with a bespoke programme of activities tailored to the group's interests.

Children of all ages are welcome, and they can join game drives when the property is booked for exclusive use.
