Our stay at Sanbona was phenomenal! From start to finish we had an incredible stay. The staff were so welcoming and couldn't do enough to help us. The rooms in Gondaana were beautifully designed and had every amenity we could ever have needed. Sitting on our deck and watching the wildlife was unforgettable. Our guide Brenda was extremely knowledgeable and taught us a lot about the local flora and fauna, whilst also ensuring we saw everything we wanted to see. The food in the restaurant was amazing and again, the design was faultless. Overall, a once in a lifetime experience!

- Avg. price/night: US$885.739.5Scored 9.5ExceptionalRated exceptional· 349 reviewsThis is an excellent luxury safari. The food is brilliant and the staff are amazing. We really enjoyed the game drives and saw plenty of animals, in particular, a cheetah feeding on a springbok she had just killed. Our guide, Jordan, was very knowledgeable and made sure each game drive was worthwhile. We stayed in Dwyka Lodge and the rooms were beautiful with a very private terrace which had a plunge pool
NatashaYoung couple - Avg. price/night: US$885.739.5Scored 9.5ExceptionalRated exceptional· 349 reviewsPerfect Safari experience on the private game reserve. We nearly saw all of the Big 5 and many other animals. The animals are in general very relaxed because Sanbona is a non profit organization and therefore the pressure on the animals is held on a low level with limited people and trucks. The ranger was well educated and taught us many interesting things. The tented lodge was very beautiful. Highly recommendable!geri85Young couple

- Avg. price/night: US$885.739.5Scored 9.5ExceptionalRated exceptional· 349 reviewsSanbona is a private safari reserve on the scale of a small national park, and run with the dedication of a conservation project. The safari experience is amazing – in our two drives we saw giraffes, lions, elephants, rhino and more. But with our guide's enthusiasm and insight, I felt immersed into the ecosystem of the reserve rather than that I was simply looking at rare animals. The staff often went above and beyond, the family lodge was comfortable, and the food and drink very good.
