Overview

Within the Sabi Sand Private Game Reserve, you can stay in the Idube Game Reserve. Idube spans 24,710 acres (10,000 ha) and is an excellent location for encountering the Big Five species (elephants, rhinos, lions, buffaloes, leopards) and other captivating creatures. Guests have even had elephants visit their private swimming pools for a drink. The staff maintains the grounds and gardens surrounding the wooden lodges. Raised wooden walkways and concrete paths make it easy to walk around the property, where you can enjoy views of the large rocks and dry riverbeds. If you prefer to relax indoors, the lounges provide ample spaces to work or gather, with fireplaces for added warmth during winter. 

Whether you stay in a Standard or Luxury Suite, anticipate individually and tastefully adorned rooms with plush, African-inspired decor, fabrics, and furniture. Each room has air-conditioning, mosquito nets, soaking tubs, and indoor and outdoor showers for comfort and relaxation. While all accommodation options feature a furnished deck, the Luxury Suites also include private swimming pools. During your stay, you can enjoy nature from the comfort of your room or patio, as large trees often surround the lodges, giving an added sense of privacy.  

When you stay at Idube Game Reserve, you can sit back and relax in an open safari vehicle as trained guides and trackers get you close to the animals. If you prefer to explore on foot, partake in guided bush walks, where you learn about the smaller creatures and plants that you might miss during the drives. Once you've worked up an appetite, the staff caters to all food preferences and provides generously portioned meals in various outdoor settings. When it comes time to relax, the property features a full bar, a fire pit, and two swimming pools. A fully-equipped gym and spa treatments are available when you want to indulge in self-care. Before heading home, stop by the reserve's curio shop for locally sourced keepsakes and products.
