Fodor's Expert Review Singita Boulders Lodge

Sabi Sand Game Reserve, Mpumalanga, South Africa Fodor's Choice

Overlooking the beautiful Sand River, Singita Boulders Lodge intermingles the wildness of its setting among boulders with traditional Africa decor at its most luxurious. Terracotta polished stone floors blend with cow-skin rugs, hide-covered armchairs, hand-carved tables, and carefully chosen artifacts. From every side there are stunning bushveld views. Luxuriate in a sumptuous suite with leather and wicker armchairs, a zebra-skin ottoman, and desks and tables fashioned from organic wood shapes. A herd of impalas could easily fit into the bathroom, with its claw-foot tub, his-and-her basins, and an indoor and outdoor shower. All doors lead out onto a big wooden deck with an infinity pool, sun loungers, and bushveld views. Request Room 11 or 12, which overlook a waterhole. Children over the age of 10 are welcome.
