Sabi Sand Game Reserve


Singita Ebony Lodge Location Map

The 18,500 hectare Singita Private Game Reserve forms part of the world-famous Sabi Sand Reserve, which adjoin the borders of the Kruger National Park. Singita Ebony Lodge offers exquisite luxury, rare solitude and perfect tranquillity, complemented by dedicated and professional staff who seek to pamper and please you.

World class accommodation, comfort, style, food and rare vintage wines stroke the senses. Attention to detail is unsurpassed. Discover for yourself why the finest private game reserve in Africa has earned its worldwide reputation as the ultimate wildlife safari.

Herds of buffalo and elephant, large prides of lion, the majestic leopard and antelope by the thousands make this area one of the finest locations for viewing the Big 5 anywhere in the world. Early morning game drives, and afternoon into spotlit evening game drives in open Land Rovers ensure a close encounter with Africa's wildlife.

In-between game drives, indulge your senses with a treatment at the Wellness spa, or gaze across the endless wonders of the African bush while working out in the gym.

Singita Ebony Lodge offers 12 luxurious double suites, each set on the banks of the Sand River amongst the giant ebony trees. Each suite has air-conditioning, a double-sided fireplace, cosy lounge area, bathroom and indoor and outdoor showers, a private swimming pool and secluded game-viewing deck.

There are 8 Ebony Suites, 2 Lewis Suites (which are situated closer to the main lodge), a Family Suite (with a master bedroom and a comfortable second bedroom), and a larger Two Bedroomed Suite, which is actually 2 separate suites sharing an entrance - so perfect for families neediing a little more privacy from each other.
