The Mantis Experience

Discover the elements that bring the brand vision to life

Preserving Surroundings

The first Mantis game reserve was built on drought-ravaged and degraded farmland in South Africa’s Eastern Cape. Carefully restored and nurtured, the neglected land slowly came back. So did the animals. And eventually, so did the travelers.

This was the genesis of Mantis, with conservation at its heart. By curating experiences that connect guests to nature, Mantis educates and inspires travelers to play an active role in safeguarding the natural world.

Traveling Mindfully

Luxury hospitality, but never at the expense of the planet. Mantis promotes carefully crafted experiences that do no harm to the natural world. Environmentally friendly amenities and experiential dining offer guests an eco-conscious adventure.

Mantis upskills and employs members of local communities, supports projects that uplift local people, and promotes indigenous designers, artists and other local talent.

Conserving Tradition

Mantis properties are diverse, but all are linked by a passion for celebrating locality. The authentic heritage of each location is honored through food, service, and design.

Inspired by culture and tradition, Mantis highlights the uniqueness of place to give guests a warm introduction to each destination.
