Reserve Information

Sabi Sabi Private Game Reserve is situated within one of Africa's oldest and largest proclaimed private reserves - the world-renowned Sabi Sands Game Reserve.

The reserve, with diverse habitats, hosts some 200 species of wildlife, including lion, leopard, rhino, buffalo, elephant, cheetah, and wild dog. Sabi Sabi Game Reserve offers those interested in birding a listing of a remarkable 350 species recorded.

Exceptional game viewing has always been a Sabi Sands Game Reserve trademark, and Bush Lodge is no exception.

Rooms And Suites

Each of the 25 spacious, air-conditioned thatched luxury suites at Sabi Sabi Bush Lodge is beautifully appointed, featuring exquisite ethnic décor in keeping with the bushveld environment. The en-suite bathrooms feature glass-fronted showers, affording beautiful views of the bushveld.

Each suite offers huge viewing decks with private plunge pools providing an ideal setting from which to spot wildlife, do some bird watching, or lie back and relax.

Two spacious luxury villas are available (Mahlatini Villa and Tumbela Villa), each with two en-suite bedrooms, a private plunge pool and a central lounge area.

Cuisine And Wine

Meals, including the wonderful dinners in the open-air boma, are heralded by blasts on a kudu horn, a summoning to delicious food. Savour excellent African and fusion cuisine at Bush Lodge or have dinner in the outdoor 'boma'.

The main lodge area at Sabi Sabi Bush Lodge hosts a formal dining room, bar, cocktail lounge and that famed wine cellar.

Lodge Facilities

An expansive wooden deck with views onto the waterhole and Msuthlu riverbed is connected to the spacious thatched central guest area. The central guest area at Sabi Sabi Bush Lodge offers indoor dining, a quiet relaxing lounge and a safari shop, all wrapped in luxuriously appointed decor with an African theme.

Two swimming pool options both overlooking a waterhole near the central lodge area are the perfect spots to sit back, relax and watch the surrounding wildlife.

Safari Activities

Morning and evening game drives in open 4x4 safari vehicles are part and parcel of one's safari and wildlife experience in the Sabi Sabi Game Reserve (bordering and open to the Kruger National Park).

All Sabi Sabi Bush Lodge safaris a led by highly qualified guides and trackers.

After morning game drives and breakfast, should you desire, there is a short walking safari option on the cards. A great way to stretch those legs while viewing Africa's wildlife and birdlife on foot.

Afternoon into evening game drives is, in our opinion, the highlight of a safari here in the Sabi Sabi. En route, stopping for sundowners and witnessing how the bushveld and wildlife behaviour changes once the night falls.

Family Friendly

Bush Lodge is exceptionally family and child-friendly with age-appropriate activities ranging from the EleFun Centre (kids centre), where 4-8-year-olds will love spending their time to the Junior Trackers Programme, where 9-12-year-olds learn all about the African bushveld.

Family suites and child-friendly meals are, of course, available.

Spa And Wellness

An Amani Spa is available for guests at Sabi Sabi Bush Lodge and Sabi Sabi Earth Lodge; treatments and massages are available, ranging from 30-minute facials to 4.5-hour massages.

The ultimate African spa experience awaits all guests should they require or request something a bit special.

Sabi Sabi Bush Lodge offers a unique, luxurious and unforgettable African safari experience. With its breathtaking views of the bushveld teeming with wildlife, exquisite ethnic décor in spacious suites, excellent cuisine and wine selection, personalised attention from staff, family-friendly amenities and Amani Spa treatments, it is easy to see why this lodge has become such a popular destination for travellers looking for an escape into nature.
