How They Dazzle Us

With just twelve suites in total this is a Landing that is low on numbers but high on quality and intimacy. It is superbly well put together, the design and spatial use phenomenal with its open-plan layout and natural décor meaning that it blends in seamlessly with the African bush surroundings. It is a Landing that has been built for comfort and finished with style.

Why We Love Them

Said to boast the world's highest population of leopard this Landing is a game viewer’s paradise. The leopard is a solitary species that moves with a primal fluidity and grace. To see it in the wild is dazzling, and your chances of viewing one here are very good - one might almost say guaranteed. But it is not just the presence of so many leopard that makes this an incredible Landing to visit, it is the abundance of other game as well. According to the Landing's website over 90 percent of their guests experience sightings of The Big Five – very often in one day, and sometimes on one drive.

Their Sustainable Superpower

.The Landing's name 'Arathusa' derives from the North Sotho word 'reathusa', which translates as, 'we are helping'. And with that as the foundation of the thinking, it is what the team at this incredible Landing seek to do. When it comes to helping the team here are involved in a number of fantastic initiatives from environmental, through social, to economic and educational. In short, there is not an aspect of local life that they do not strive to benefit positively. Conservation management includes huge efforts to combat rhino poaching and also a strict vehicle per hectare policy. There are skills and social development initiatives as well as a commitment to the procuring of services and products from local businesses. Finally there is a huge investment in the local Hanani Primary School.
