SABI SAND GAME RESERVE / MPUMALANGA |
 |
 |
Singita Private Game Reserve is situated
in the Kruger National Park. Singita
offers supreme wildlife and safari experiences. A stay at
Singita is about many things: remarkable
design, innovative food and wine combined with exceptional hospitality.
Accommodation Ebony Lodge : Languishing amongst the shade of the gnarled
Knobthorn and Jackalberry trees, with the Sand River below,
Singita’s Ebony Lodge is set in a cool
silence that is entirely intoxicating. Ebony is a tribute to the vogue
and muted luxury of colonial styling, echoing a bygone age. There is a
gradual sensation that grows with you here, like the stirring of
passion. Quietly romantic, Ebony is considered among the finest resorts
in the world, not because of the exceptional architecture, nor the
cuisine or wild setting, but because of the effect on the spirit. Waking
each morning to the sights and smells of the wild, the vastness of
Africa before you, is to feel completely alive.
Boulders Lodge: Resting among the rocky geometry of the Sabi Sand
Reserve, Boulders lodge is an oasis of refinement in the shimmering
midday. Rough-hewn timber, leather and stone meet thatch and wild views.
The elemental curves and luxury of contemporary African styling dominate
each suite, sparse and strong. The décor is juxtaposed between the
textures of Africa and carefree lines of an occasional retro classic.
Lebombo Lodge: Singita Lebombo is
enchantment in a savage setting, a glimpse of wildest Africa. Rangers
say it is the largest concentration of game they have seen in the Kruger
National Park. The area is marked by its diversity, from the leopards
and lion that own the open spaces to the herds engaged in the ebb and
flow of an archaic migration. Each creature is an intrinsic part of a
precarious cycle, from the hundreds of species of birds to the flora and
intriguing insect life. The days and nights here are shared with the
animals, the sounds and smells of the African bush.
Sweni Lodge: Amongst some of Africa’s starkest beauty is a place that
resonates to the depths of the soul. Set in dappled shade on the banks
of the Sweni River, six exclusive suites herald a new era in safari.
Constructed of glass, slatted wood and bleached branches, Sweni Lodge
maintains the modern lines of Lebombo rationalised with classic lines
and a time-honoured palette.
Integration with the African outdoors through floor to ceiling windows
and a vast balcony creates a sense of accord with the surroundings. Each
interior merges elemental curves, juxtaposed textures and unexpected
splashes of colour in eclectic harmony.
Castleton Camp: Once a private bush retreat, Castleton Camp has opened
its doors for the exclusive use of families and small groups of up to
twelve guests. Set in the Singita Private Game
Reserve in the game rich Sabi Sand Reserve adjacent to the Kruger
National Park, the classic stone lodge with its expansive verandah and
the surrounding cottages are luxuriously appointed in a comfortable
colonial style.
Dining
Guests at Singita will encounter something
truly original: a cuisine inspired by African flavours yet guided by the
Western culinary tradition.
Complementing the menu is Singita's hidden
treasure: the best bush cellar in Africa. Buried deep in the cool rock
below Boulders, the cellar boasts a truly unique and comprehensive cross
section of over 12,000 bottles of South African and International wines,
and Singita provides the perfect
environment in which to enjoy them.
