About Lion Sands River Lodge

Lion Sands River Lodge is situated on the banks of the Sabi River, providing an iconic setting in the Southern Sabi Sand. The lodge offers a refined, comfortable experience that emphasizes the connection to the river, a vital artery for the region's abundant wildlife. The suites are spacious and elegant, designed to bring the outside in with large windows and private decks. Game viewing is exceptional, as the permanent water source of the river ensures consistent sightings throughout the year. The lodge is known for its high standard of service and its focus on creating a relaxed, luxurious safari atmosphere. Whether viewing elephants from the deck or embarking on a high-octane drive, guests are treated to a seamless and memorable experience in one of Africa's top reserves.
