Lion Sands Ivory Lodge

Sabi Sands Game Reserve / South Africa

The 5 Star Premium Graded Ivory Lodge offers the ultimate safari experience. The lodge itself is a contemporary-style masterpiece, built of concrete, timber, glass and steel to meld into the riverscape. The 9, one-bedroom Villas provide every comfort and convenience – from private relaxation areas, pools and maxi bars to, in the case of the two-bedroom Fish Eagle Villa, a spa and gym, butler, personal chef, field guide, and safari vehicle. And everything is included for a tailor made family/friend adventure.

Accomodation

One-Bedroom Villa

Your private lounge, patio, deck and pool invite easy relaxation. Here, everything is included – from your champagne of choice stocked in the maxibar, to your favourite shirt, washed and pressed – creating a highly-personalised experience of a safari, your way.

Fish Eagle Villa

Fish Eagle Villa gives you your own private piece of Africa, between the bush and the river. They say if you sit long enough in the same spot you'll see a little something of all creatures great and small as they gather at the water. The Villa has more than enough space to spread out and make yourself completely at home. Two en-suite bedrooms can sleep four adults and another two children, each on an extra single bed in their parent’s rooms. The Villa can also be booked in conjunction with the two-sleeper Bateleur Villa, allowing all eight guests to enjoy Fish Eagle’s exclusive facilities.

Activities

Million Dollar Star Experience

Romantics, adventurers, and solitude seekers a like can discover the magic of an evening out in Africa – in complete luxury. Delivered by safari vehicle to their chosen hideout, guests spend the sunset hours enjoying a gourmet picnic and spotting the animals that wander past (at a safe distance), before turning in for the night beneath a blanket of stars.

Photographic Safaris

Nothing beats being in the bush, but photographs can help you capture those very special moments spent on safari. For professional and novice photographers alike, Lion Sands Creative Lab at River Lodge helps you transform your images into canvass artworks to create the ultimate keepsakes. Camera equipment is also available for hire.

Astral Safari

The clear air and little light of this remote African wilderness make it an ideal stargazing location. During evening game drives, your field guide will point out planets and stars you’ve never before seen with the naked eye and tell you more about the constellations, taking you on a night sky safari.

Bush Walks

Led by your expert guides, these are the walks on the wild side. For those who want to experience the bush, beyond observing it, there is no more real excursion. Feel the grass brush your hands, hear the crunch of scrub nearby, and spot game appear just meters off – exhilarating!

Relax at the Spa

Between safaris, you’ll have the luxury of free time – how better to indulge than with a visit to the spa at River or Ivory Lodge? We use natural Africology and TheraNaka products, instilled with the belief that self-care brings balance, in our tailored therapies to revive mind, body and spirit.

Game Drives

The thrill of being let in on this world will give you a buzz. As the day fades, a whole other world of animals emerges into the evening. It’ll take a little more to spot them, but with your guides’ keen eyes and your senses now attuned to the sounds, scents and movements of the bush, this experience captures the very essence of safari.

Location

Ivory Lodge is located on the Sabi Sands side of Lion Sands Game Reserve, which protects 6 400ha/15 800ac of, arguably, Africa’s most pristine Big Five territory. Lion Sands Game Reserve is the only private reserve to have a foot in both the Sabi Sand Game Reserve and Kruger National Park. The Sand River flows through the reserve for 11km (7mi) from northwest to southeast, while the Sabie River flows for 12km (7.5mi) on the southern boundary. Because of these continuous water sources, the area enjoys one of the highest and most biodiverse wildlife populations in Africa. Over two hundred different species live in abundance, and the dynamic birdlife will appeal to both seasoned and amateur bird enthusiasts alike. The Sabi Sand Reserve is renowned for the quality of its leopard viewing, the most elusive of predators.
