Arathusa Safari Lodge, Sabi Sand Game Reserve

Arathusa Safari Lodge

Average guest rating:4.5

Arathusa Safari Lodge is located within the northern sector of the coveted Sabi Sand Reserve, adjacent to the Kruger National Park. This region is renowned for its incredible concentrations of wildlife, including the Big 5 – lion, leopard, rhino, buffalo, elephant, and guests can enjoy incredible close encounters with the animals during their morning and afternoon guided game drives in open Land Rovers.

The lodge flanks the bank of a large lake, and there are usually between 5 and 20 hippos 'right on the doorstep', providing 24 hour entertainment.

The camp is an intimate one, completely open-plan and designed to harmoniously blend with the adjacent lake and African bush.

The main living area is intended for comfort. Whether quietly reflecting on the view, reading a good book, enjoying compatible banter with friends or fellow safari go-ers, the warmth and charm of the camp environment is the foundation of the Arathusa safari experience.

An infinity swimming pool overlooks the waterhole and is the perfect spot for wildlife viewing on a smoldering African summer’s afternoon.

A traditional open-air boma offers guests a novel way of appreciating an enjoyable meal under the stars accompanied by the sounds of the African wild.

The standard thatched suites each have a bathroom en-suite (with bath and separate indoor and outdoor showers), and a verandah for optimum enjoyment of the surrounding bush. Fabrics are natural, and the design simple and elegant.

Guests can also choose to stay in one of the luxury suites, which have a private plunge pool. All suites have a mini bar (stocked with a selection of beverages), an electronic safe, hairdryer, air conditioning, mosquito net and tea/ coffee making facilities. There is also a spa at the lodge.
