Perched on a sandstone ridge, Singita Pamushana Lodge’s eight elegant suites—all with private plunge pools—is set within the 130,000-acre Malilangwe Wildlife Reserve in Zimbabwe’s remote southeast. Drawing inspiration from the rich tribal history of the region, the lodge’s organicshaped buildings feature detailed thatch and stonework, carefully curated interiors and picturesque views of the surrounding landscape and Malilangwe Dam below.
The eight suites include four 1-bedroom suites, one 2-bedroom family suite (perfect for two adults and two children), one 3-bedroom family suite (perfect for two adults and four children) and two 2-bedroom suites (ideal for four adults travelling together).
The Reserve’s abundant wildlife includes one of the highest concentrations of the endangered black rhino and with private access to this untouched wilderness, guests can immerse themselves in nature on twice-daily game drives, bush walks, sundowner boat cruises, excursions to rock art sites and more.
Singita Pamushana is home to two tennis courts, clay and Rebound Ace.
Daily game drives with professional guides and trackers provide the perfect opportunity to get up close to Africa’s incredible animals, while late afternoon drives reveal the elusive magic of nocturnal Africa. Our game drives are all conducted in state-of-the-art Land Cruisers, each accommodating a maximum of six guests. During your stay at Singita Pamushana Lodge you are likely to spot a wide variety of wildlife including white and black rhino, Lichtenstein hartebeest, sable, nyala, klipspringer, cheetah, wild dog, lion, leopard, and an abundance of bird life.
There is perhaps no more transcendent experience than looking up at a full sky of sparkling stars. Man has had a love affair with the nighttime sky for centuries and with very little pollution and no city lights to detract from the stars, your view of the heavens here will be crystal clear – nothing between you and the vast African sky above.

Water is a source of life and beauty, and no place is this more apparent than in the remote tranquility of the African bush. Fishing at the dam below the lodge is the ideal way to experience this wonder firsthand.
