An adventurous addition to your safari experience

For the ultimate safari experience, return to the wild with our signature Sleepout Under the Stars. This extraordinary experience is an adventurous addition to any safari, allowing you to reconnect with nature and each other in a simple, meaningful way. Just like the early explorers, you’ll fall asleep under a canopy of a million twinkling stars, listening to the susurrations of the nighttime bush. A cosy bedroll, bush loo and culinary team ensure that this experience is as comfortable as it is memorable. Each destination offers a unique experience that celebrates the region’s beauty.

Extraordinary staff, very relaxing with beautiful scenery. Well after a few hours a wave of peace floated in and for the next few days we were in heaven.

My week long stay at Miavana was unparalleled in almost every aspect of luxury. Defining luxury not only in terms of great quality and exclusivity, but in terms of craftsmanship, consciousness and a unique enriching experience. The richness of the culture set the context for such unique environment, and is the pillar of every impressive distinguishing feature of the resort.

Miavana will exceed your expectations. We traveled to Miavana for a week in early December 2018 and had an incredible experience. The weather was perfect, the staff was attentive and there was enough activities on offer to keep us busy (honestly we could have stayed an extra week). The island is also home to a group of crowned lemurs which were amazing to see. I got my PADI open water scuba certification during our stay and the coral at the dive sites was incredible!
