The Sabi Sand Nature Reserve, named for the Sabie and Sand Rivers which flow through it, is renowned for its wildlife density and predator interactions; seldom will a visitor not see the Big Five. Although it shares a fenceless boundary with

Kruger National Park, much of the wildlife in the Sabi Sand stays more or less in the reserve. Over the years, the animals have become used to the presence of safari vehicles, resulting in close encounters, particularly with the elusive leopards.

Roaming packs of African wild dogs, territorial lions, and large herds of elephants are also signature sightings. As well as having a consistently high density of wildlife, the reserve's conservation ethos keeps vehicle numbers to a minimum at

wildlife sightings. This offers a more exclusive safari experience while ensuring the welfare of the habituated animals.

Being in the private reserve generally affords more flexibility with opportunities to off-road, enjoy night drives and bush walks, all of which make visiting this area a truly unique experience.

This five-star luxury lodge features eight exquisite renovated and redecorated glass-fronted, air-conditioned suites, each with private plunge pool and superb views over the African bush. Sensational game viewing and a wide variety of

activities, along with outstanding fine dining, attended to by professional and friendly staff, all create the safari experience of a lifetime.

Facilities at this Sabi Sand lodge include an extensive library with internet access, a traditional Shangaan boma, a fully- stocked wine cellar, and a curio shop that have all recently undergone extensive refurbishments.

The treatment sala and gym are very popular among guests. Work up a sweat in the fully-equipped gym overlooking the bush below or enjoy an array of pampering massage treatments in the private glass-fronted sala offering spectacular views

from its carefully chosen vantage point off the main pool deck.

Here Africa’s big game abounds and each day is different, as you explore the endless fascination of Africa’s wildlife in an

open game viewer. Leopard on the hunt. Lions roaring at twilight. Hippo wallowing in the river. Crocodile basking on a

sandy bank. Overhead, majestic eagles keep watch. Out walking you will discover some of the endlessly captivating small

creatures of Africa. These are just a few of the amazing encounters awaiting you!

Built on a hill overlooking the reserve, Leopard Hills boasts eight exquisitely-decorated and luxurious glass-fronted suites.

Complete with their own sundeck and plunge pool, the suites offer superb views of the African bushveld. The suites are generously spacious and have air-conditioning and overhead fans. The breathtaking romantic bathrooms include indoor

and outdoor showers, which open to a glorious view of the passing cavalcade.
