Like the Lebombo Euphorbia tree after which it was named, the design of Lebombo Lodge is one of a kind. From the sweeping wooden decks, you can watch the theatre that unfolds before you, while the lap pool beckons to enjoy a relaxing afternoon. The fifteen suites feature contemporary finishes with beds dressed with Egyptian cotton and silky-soft throws. Enjoy dinner in the boma, then spend the evening, if you so wish, sleeping under the stars on the bed of your private terrace.

We traveled to Sabi Sand for Game Drives, first time in my life! Singita has won numerous awards, I can honestly say that they deserve it! It's easy for me to fault any hotel, but at Sigita, I was constantly met with nice surprises.. heated plunge pools, electric blankets, evening sweets in your room.. sunset cocktails in the bush before finishing evening game drives.. romantic tent dinner (not that I needed it as I travelled with a girlfriend!) .. the meals were fantastic, more than 3 times a day.. you couldn't but help and overindulge every day, the temptation of so much good food was irresistible!
We stayed at Singita Sabi Sand Reserve as well as Kruger National Park. There are two lodges at the Sabi Sand Reserve, Ebony Lodge and Boulders Lodge. I personally preferred Boulders, the layout was just a bit wider and brighter than Ebony and also features Infinity pool. That said, Ebony was also beautiful! Both of the Lodges have a heated plunge pool in each villa and Ebony has more traditional African furnishing.
Singita has two properties south of Kruger National Park, Singita Sweni and Singita Lebombo Lodges. Both of these lodges have contemporary designs, Singita Lebombo has a white/blue tone and Singita Sweni has more of a brown/green earthy tone. Lebombo has a more open view. Neither Sweni nor Lebombo have private pools as water supply is limited in this area. Both do have communal pools however; the pool in Lebombo is in front of dining area, so I preferred the pool in Sweni, as it is more private.
It's easy to fly between the Sabi Sand Reserve and the Kruger National Park with Federal Air (a local carrier). Alternatively you can transfer between the two by road, it takes about 3 hours and part of the road is bumpy.
I personally felt the safari experience was better in Sabi Sand, as we saw everything in the short 2 days we were there; lions, leopard, cheetah, hyena.. We were told we were extremely lucky however, we had 11 lions around us on the first night and witness a leopard kill; also there are only about 100 cheetah left in Kruger and I met a local who's gone on game drives many times and never seen a cheetah or leopard kill... On our second day at Ebony, a leopard actually came on to the deck next door when we were at breakfast! Apparently last time a leopard visited the lodge was about 2 years ago. The lodge does have 24 hr camera monitoring system, and staff would alert all guests not to return to the rooms till it leaves the property... During our close encounter with the dangerous animals, I didn't at any given time feel unsafe, we were told animals usually don't attack unless feel threatened, these animals have become customed to the safari vehicles and visitors, and carried on their business as if we were not even there...
After Sabi Sand and Kruger, I was actually planning to visit Tanzania, cos I heard from other guests there that Migration already started there, and its amazing to watch, with lots of actions! Sigita has two lodges built on the migration route. Another recommendation for accommodation was to stay in &Beyond's (another premium lodge operator) Ngorongoro Crater Lodge... Unfortunately the flights from South Africa to Arusha is a nightmare, you have to go Johannesburg, Nairobi, Dar es salaam or Kilamounjara airport, finally arriving in Arusha, then followed by a couple of hours by road !! And then of course the same route back!! It is not recommended to combine South Africa with Tanzania, its better to go direct from say Dubai to Nairobi as a seperate trip, next time!
