Fodor's Expert Review Sabi Sabi Bush Lodge

Sabi Sand Game Reserve, Mpumalanga, South Africa

Bush Lodge overlooks a busy waterhole (lions are frequent visitors) and the dry course of the Msuthlu River. The thatch, open-sided dining area, observation deck, and pool all have magnificent views of game at the waterhole. Thatch suites are connected by walkways that weave between manicured lawns and beneath enormous shade trees where owls and fruit bats call at night. All have a deck overlooking the dry river course (where you may well see an elephant padding along) and outdoor and indoor showers. Roomy, comfortable chalets are Africa-themed, each with a personal wooden deck.

PROS

  • always prolific game around the lodge
  • roomy chalets

CONS

  • big and busy might not be your idea of a relaxing getaway
