Singita Private Game Reserve, located in the game-rich Sabi Sand Reserve, offers exquisite luxury, rare solitude and perfect tranquility. Singita, which means “The Miracle” in the local Shangaan language, has two distinctive lodges, both of which are members of Relais & Chateaux. Singita Ebony Lodge has eight beautifully appointed double suites set in shady woodland above the Sand River. Each suite has an en-suite bathroom, complete with outdoor shower, a double-sided fireplace, air conditioning, private leisure deck and living area. There is an outdoor “boma” and swimming pool.
Singita Boulders Lodge is set at the base of a dolerite rise, and has 12 sunken suites of glass and baluwood. Each suite has a lounge area, en-suite bathroom and outdoor shower and a private outdoor deck with flow pool. Dinner is served by the light of oil lamps on the moonlit deck or in the library, surrounded by a fine collection of antique and modern books on Africa. Boulders has a unique wine cellar burrowed unto the bedrocks, where guests can choose from 12 000 bottles of South Africa’s award winning wines. Guests at Singita can enjoy dawn and dusk game drives or walking safaris under the guidance of skilled rangers and Shangaan trackers. There is also a fully equipped gym at Boulders and a safari boutique servicing both lodges.
