We came here for our honeymoon and this was the most special holiday of our lives. We stayed in the River Suite, which was beautiful, as was the rest of the hotel. The service was fantastic - every member of staff (whether that be in the restaurant, behind the bar, cleaning staff, reception, etc) were incredibly kind, chatty and attentive. The food during our stay was excellent. The highlight of this trip was certainly the game drives. We had Jason (field guide) and Abraham (tracker) and both guys were incredibly knowledgeable, skilled and just very nice people - we really hope that our paths cross again some day! We have been given memories that will last a life time!

The main reason to stay here is of course the safari drives, and these were exceptional. it seemed like every drive we saw something amazing. The rooms are well appointed and the staff do a great job with keeping everything in good order. Food was of good quality and staff are friendly. The pool area is wonderful to relax in; we saw elephants from it! ##### Ben Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Nov 23, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great service, great people.

O problema ficou por conta do local , nessa reserva Sabi Sabi não conseguimos ver nenhum Leão , participamos de 5 safaris . Vimos todos os outros animais , os guias são muito atenciosos e parecem empenhados em encontrar os animais mas me arrependi de ter ficado só nesta reserva pq o custo é alto para não conseguir ver os BIG 5 . Até a quantidade de girafas e zebras achei pequena . As acomodações são inesquecíveis, a casa é muito bem decorada e confortável . Para quem as acomodações é o mais importante este é o hotel indicado ! ##### Marcia Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael May 7, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Amazing place in sabi sands reserve Just returned from three magical days at the Lion Sands River Lodge in Sabi Sands reserve at Kruger Park Super luxury suites with private pools and decks to watch game in river, we saw elephants and rhinos. Had a semi private butler at meals and the wine sommelier, Reggie, laid out the good stuff for us. Saw lions, leopards, rhinos, hippos and lots of others. Lion Sands set the standard for the private Sabi Sands lodges. Their River Lodge property is next door and offes same game drives at slightly less indulgence ##### Michael ### 8/10 Good #### SATORU Sep 25, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### SATORU Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Natasha, Australia Sep 27, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beyond Amazing The staff, super friendly and were happy to go out of there way and listen to your personal preference to make you stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.
