Leopard Hills

Average guest rating:5.0

Leopard Hills Private Game Reserve is located in the western sector of the exclusive Sabi Sand Game Reserve. The lodge is built on a hill overlooking a natural waterhole, and the nearby Sand River is a sanctuary for many bird species and host to wallowing hippos and basking crocodiles.

Early morning and late afternoon / evening game drives, in search of Africa's big game, are conducted by your knowledgeable ranger. Walks through the bush take place just after breakfast, on request, and is the best way of experiencing the 'finer' aspects of the bushveld. Your ranger will guide you though the fauna and flora of the Sabi Sand Reserve, pointing out insects, grasses, trees and smaller species that are all an integral part of the ecosystem.

Back in camp after early morning and late afternoon/evening game drives, guests are spoilt by the highest standards of service and fine cuisine, all couched in a welcoming warm, friendly and fun-filled cellar brimming with racks of celebrated local and international wines.

The library offer a setting of peace and tranquillity, where you are welcome to browse through a large selection of literature and African journals. In addition there is secluded alcove where an internet facility is available.

Each of the 8 luxurious glass-fronted suites at Leopard Hills have their own sundeck and rock plunge pool, and offer superb views of the African bushveld beyond.

The air-conditioning and overhead fans provide welcome respite against the harsh African heat.

The romantic bathrooms, which include double indoor and outdoor showers, have windows which open to a glorious view of the passing cavalcade below.
