The Lion Sands Ivory Lodge is for those in search of utter exclusivity. Just eight water-side Villas emerge from a riverscape that sees the passage of much of the reserve’s wildlife. From your bed, deck, private plunge pool, or indeed the guest spa, this is one of the best places to look upon Africa – uninterrupted.
Ivory Lodge is the understated jewel in the Lion Sands' crown. Here, hospitality is designed entirely around YOU (from customised spa therapies and private dining, to safaris with surprise refreshment stops) and luxury – much more than a sophisticated room in an exotic location – has substance.
The lodge’s eight one-bedroom Villas, set secluded at the confluence of the Sabie and Sand rivers, are the ultimate bush retreats. Your private lounge, patio, deck and pool invite easy relaxation, while a dedicated team of staff are always on hand to take care or your every whim and fancy. Everything is included – from a champagne-stocked maxibar, to the washing and pressing of your favourite shirt – to create a highly-personalised experience of a safari, your way.
The lodge also includes the two-bedroom Fish Eagle Villa, and offers the ultimate in private luxury and personalised service for a family or group of friends. Everything is included – from your own pool and spa, to personal chef, field guide and game viewer vehicle – for a tailor-made South African safari. You and your tribe would be hard-presssed to find a more idyllic spot to base yourselves.

We are exprienced world travellers
We are exprienced world travellers, but when it came to booking a safari, after a bit of research we realized we were out of our league with the logistics. Shaan Shaw at Safari.com listened closely to our needs and intrests, and quickly responded to all of our questions, efficietly putting together the package for a fly-in safari of our dreams at nearly half the price of other luxury groups! Her strong communicatioin skills, creative problem solving, experience and attentiveness have are refreshing attributes and it has been a delight to work with her.
