MORE Collection

It starts with a staircase and a bit of curiosity.

Higher up, it’s just you. No walls, no distractions, just a bed set beneath the sky and the sounds of the bush settling in for the night. Somewhere below, wildlife moves through the darkness, unseen but never far.

Each treehouse offers its own experience, shaped by the landscape around it, and the feeling of sleeping out in the wild.

It’s not your usual night in. And that’s exactly the point.

Before you return each evening, everything is already waiting for you. Tables set, your favourite drink poured.

Across the Collection, every space is designed for that feeling, stepping inside after a day out and instantly settling in. The comfort of a place that already feels familiar.

Different lodges, different landscapes, but the same sense of arrival every time.

A few days well spent.

Conversations that turned into connections, familiar faces met again, and new ones welcomed into the fold.

Time on the ground at We Are Africa is always about more than just meetings, it’s about sharing what sits behind the Collection, and the people who bring it to life.

Grateful for the time, the energy, and everything that continues from here.💛

Art and culture take on different forms across the Collection, but the intention remains the same, to let each space be shaped by creativity.

From curated works that move through Cape Cadogan Boutique Hotel in partnership with Everard Read. To artists in residence at Lion Sands, bringing their process into view and the Creative Lab at Marataba Safari Lodge, where guests step behind the lens. Each experience offers a different way of engaging with art.

Across the Collection, creativity isn’t something separate. It’s part of how each stay unfolds.

A different kind of family time. Early mornings, wide-open spaces, and moments that bring everyone a little closer.

Orchids and safari may not seem connected, but here, they’ve become part of the experience.

What began with Louise More’s personal collection has grown into a living presence across our lodges. Each bloom is carefully tended, thoughtfully placed, and rotated through our spaces so that every detail feels considered. When their time on display comes to an end, they return to our shade houses to be nurtured once more, ready to begin again.

Across the Collection, each property carries its own botanical expression. Each space is paired with its own orchid, chosen with intention to reflect the character, palette, and feeling of that place. From city stays to safari settings, these blooms become a natural extension of their surroundings, grounding each experience in a sense of place.

It’s a detail you notice in passing, but one that stays with you long after you’ve left, a small, thoughtful thread woven through every stay.
