Bush Lodge
Luxury Safari Lodge
For decades Bush Lodge has been Sabi Sabi's flagship lodge, famed for its warmth, vibrancy and legendary hospitality. A favourite amongst travellers in search of luxury accommodation, Bush Lodge is a luxurious safari escape set in the heart of the Sabi Sabi bushveld overlooking a waterhole and an African plain.
Bush Lodge's charm is evident from the outset. Here you will savour uncompromising high standards of service, efficiency and personalised attention.
Each of the 25 spacious, air-conditioned thatched suites is beautifully appointed, featuring exquisite ethnic décor in keeping with the bushveld environment. The en-suite bathrooms feature al-fresco as well as glass-fronted indoor showers, affording wonderful views of the bushveld.
Huge viewing decks are the ideal setting to relax while spotting game, birdwatching, or cooling off in the filtered pools. Meals, including the wonderful dinners in the open air boma, are heralded by blasts on a kudu horn, a summoning to delicious food. This luxury safari lodge also features artistically designed open courtyards with spectacular wooden carvings by renowned South African sculptors, created from uprooted trees and wood salvaged from the surrounding bushveld.
The Mandleve Suite at Bush Lodge is an ultra-luxury suite perfect for honeymooners or those in search of sumptuous accommodation. The beautiful spacious suite includes an open plan lounge and gorgeous bathroom with outside shower. A secluded pool, private safari experience and optional in-room dining all combine to make this suite an absolute treat.

Wild Facts
- Wild about... Hippos
- 1. These semi-aquatic mammals live in rivers and dams in sub-Saharan Africa, typically banding together in a group of up to 40, called a pod.
- 2. Despite their benign, almost cuddly appearance, Hippos are among the most aggressive animals in Africa, and can easily outrun humans, despite their massive size.
- 3. Hippos can live for up to 40 years in the wild, and they mate, give birth and suckle underwater, surfacing to draw breath when necessary.
- 4. To protect them from the baking African sun, Hippos have incredible thick skin - up to 4cm thick - that accounts for a quarter of their weight.
- 5. At Sabi Sabi... Rangers and trackers are awaiting the return of Earth Lodge's Hippo, who went missing with his mate a few months ago. Speculation is that the pair left the Earth Lodge dam to deliver a baby in a quiet stretch of the nearby Sabie River and will return with a baby.
