Savanna Lodge
Sabi Sand Game Reserve
An exclusive 5 star lodge, Savanna is situated in the western sector of the internationally renowned Sabi Sand Reserve. Savanna lies in an area where ‘Big Five’ sightings are so frequent, it is not unusual to see lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhino in a single game drive. Famous for having the best leopard viewing in the world, the Sabi Sand area is known worldwide as ‘The Land of the Leopard’. The lodge comprises just nine magnificent suites that all offer spacious and luxurious accommodation. Firstly, three large Executive Suites under canvas roofs for that authentic safari ambience and the romance of sleeping in Bedouin-style tents. The canvas roofs are set above solid walls for comfort, privacy and security as well as efficient air-conditioning and fans. Each Executive Suite has a spacious bathroom with free-standing bath, double vanities, double shower and toilet as well as outdoor shower atrium. The bedrooms have plush sitting areas leading out onto covered patios with private plunge pool and wooden viewing decks overlooking surrounding waterholes and the magnificent African bush. Secondly, there are four Luxury Suites also under canvas….
nestled amid beautiful indigenous trees that attract a variety of birds. They have the same facilities as the larger suites in a more compact space and are furnished and decorated to the same superb standard. The bedrooms have draped ceilings creating an atmosphere of romance and intimacy. Tented roofs blend into the African bush while solid walls provide quiet and security, ensuring a restful night's sleep. Each Luxury Suite has an en-suite bathroom with free-standing bath, double vanities and both indoor and outdoor shower. The bedrooms open onto private patios with deck and private plunge pools. Sweeping views of the bush and waterholes can be enjoyed from the comfort of your deck chair. Tucked away with large stands of natural shrubbery separating them, the luxury suites are the ultimate in cozy, private hideaways.
Lastly, there’s the Savanna Suite - an opulent home away from home under thatch. Two large, beautifully furnished bedrooms lie on either side of an inter-connecting lounge. Each has a spacious bathroom with free-standing bath, double vanities, double shower and toilet. The bathrooms open onto paved outdoor showers. The bedrooms have glass doors with screens leading out onto covered patios, plunge pool and wooden viewing deck. From here you can enjoy views of a private waterhole and the beauty of the African bush. The lounge is a harmonious meld of elegance and comfort with sofas grouped around a television and DVD center, and a cozy reading nook in front of the fireplace. Step through sliding glass doors onto a large covered patio where candle-lit dinners or private pre-dinner cocktails can be enjoyed. An attached fully equipped kitchen and guest restroom complete the impression of being in one's own exquisite home. A butler in attendance at dinner and a private game viewing vehicle with dedicated ranger and tracker to take care of all your needs completes the Savanna Suite.
With no boundary fences between the Sabi Sand and the Kruger National Park, this reserve benefits from the great diversity of wildlife found in one of the richest wilderness areas on the African continent along with the additional benefits experience in a private game reserve, including exciting night game drives. Game drives traverse an area of 24,700 acres and strict vehicle limits at sightings ensure the exclusivity of your game viewing experience. Sensitive off-road driving practices ensure that you have the best possible view of any exceptional sightings and rangers are constantly in touch with each other to keep track of animal movements.
