Savanna is the epitome of a fully inclusive and diverse African wildlife and cultural experience. Memorable and exciting big game viewing and a fascinating insight into the local tribal customs of the Shangaan people, will form part of your safari experience. ACCOMMODATIONSavanna encompasses the very essence of an Out of Africa camp. The "tented" suites combine the romance of a tented roof and draped inner ceiling, with the sophistication of a permanent structure that ensures luxury and privacy.

Their en-suite bathrooms feature a double wash hand basin, enclosed toilets, a double shower and a Victoriana ball and claw bath. Luxury Suites: The four Luxury Suites are of equal standard, though slightly smaller and without the private pool and double shower. These suites are more intimate and romantic. All of the suites are airconditioned and have a well stocked mini bar. Pure cotton linen with hand embroidered wildlife designs, and top quality beds are standard. Rustic reed blinds, coir carpets, a draped canvas ceiling and built in lounge area with bolsters and scatter cushions, all combine to create the most luxurious tents in Africa. The Savanna Suite: The Savanna Suite is the epitome of luxury and comfort. Designed under thatch, it can accommodate up to four guests in two beautifully appointed bedrooms. Each bedroom has a wooden deck which leads onto a private plunge pool. The bedrooms are divided by a large lounge / dining area.

The bathrooms are large and comfortable with a “his and hers” vanity area, free standing bath, shower and separate toilet. The bathroom also boasts a designer outside shower leading off the bathroom.

DIRECTIONS: From Johannesburg or Pretoria, take the N12, or N4 highway to Nelspruit. When you enter Nelspruit, turn left at the traffic light and follow the signboards towards White River. From White River, take the R40 to Hazyview. At Hazyview, turn right onto the R536 towards the Paul Kruger Gate. Approximately 34 km along this road, and just after the Saringwa River, look out for signs indicating the Private Lodges (signs will read Idube, Exeter, Inyati, Ulusaba – very small sign, please look out!) on the left hand side of the road. There is a second bigger sign that reads “Huntington”. After a few hundred metres, main signs will appear with a gravel road on the left hand side. Turn left here. Follow the Savanna signs all the way to the Newington Gate (± 13km). Turn left as you enter the Sabi Sands Game Reserve and follow the signs to the lodge.
