Lodges in Sabi Sand Game Reserve

Not a large selection for breakfast but was good. The location to Kruger Park and Sabie Sand was close by. The entrance road was a dirt road for about a mile but not bad. Staff and facilities very good. Much better than expected.

Everything! The entire staff provided an overall magical experience!

Nice suites, spacious, comfortable bed, nice outdoor deck area. Food was excellent. Well-prepared, nice choices, loved the outdoor dinners. Game drives exceptional! We had a great driver/guide named FJ who was amazing! All staff so welcoming and friendly, made us feel like family.

The staff in property was beautiful. They took every effort to make sure that our stay was exceptional.

We had a fantastic stay at Inyati! The game drives (with Rodger and Qulani) were absolutely amazing, it couldn’t have been better. We saw the big 5 even in one day. The entire facility is very peaceful in a great location and the staff was lovely! Highly recommended!

The staff was very accommodating. The room was impeccable and well appointed. We really enjoyed the viewing pond out our back lanai. Our guide was knowledgeable and was an overall five star experience. Staff was attentive and accommodating.

The property was beautiful and wonderfully maintained.

The word Shalati means Queen and that is how I felt from the moment we stepped off the plane in Skukuza. The whole experience at Shalati was soul touching and life changing. From MKs warm smile at the airport to Jane's welcome at Shalati, we knew we were destined for 5 amazing days at this fabulous lodge. Every little touch was thoughtful and over the top to ensure we had the best experience, with Benedicks smile.Dining with Glenda and Gratitude, whose warmth & kindness blessed us each meal. We even got to meet Glenda's mother on a community tour between drives. Glenda noticed we were not finishing our meals & asked if everything was meeting our needs - which YES - all meals were healthy and fresh and amazing. She then inquired if we would prefer smaller portions, which is so thoughtful as we did not want to be wasteful. Gratitude was newly promoted but you would never know that she wasn't a professional. We loved every moment with these two wonderful women. Then there is Sipho, our ranger/guide, his knowledge of the animals, his amazing eye and willingness to track down an animal was above and beyond. Over the 5 days of our morning and afternoon drives plus one 6 hr private drive, we formed a deep bond with Sipho. His smile and laugh always brought joy to the cold cold mornings. Our biggest regret is not booking for private drive time with Sipho. We also saw the Big 5 on our first drive out with him but his eye for other animals is undeniably keen - a porcupine in the dark with its spindles out! An ardvark!! When we booked there was only 1 night available on the train bridge so we took full advantage & also got massages on the train bridge. The Shalati team worked to see if there was a way for us to continue our stay on the train but in the end we moved over to the cottages for our last 3 nights. We quickly realized we loved the spacious beautiful cottage and were beyond happy!

This is a really special spot in Kruger National Park. The bungalows and common spaces are beautiful. We saw elephants and rhinos at the watering hole from the balcony serval times. They host two guided game drives per day with amazing guides. We saw so many animals. The staff is absolutely wonderful - everything is taken care of from a lovely breakfast to wonderful dinners and plenty of snacks in between. It was a magical stay!
