This dreamy lodge boasts Moroccan-style suites that have been beautifully designed to blend with the surrounding natural environment. The perfect blend of carefully selected elements come together to create a romantic atmosphere to charm all who visit Simbambili.

The Rooms

Simbambili offers guests a selection of eight luxury rooms, each of which has a distinctly Moroccan feel. These beautifully-decorated suites feature their own private plunge pool that overlooks the watering hole. Guests can unwind on their private deck while watching wildlife from their daybed and soak up the spectacular views over the vast savannah grassland that teems with life.

Leopard Bonanza

Renowned for its regular leopard sightings, Simbambili takes the experience to a new level. The quality and quantity of leopard sightings are unsurpassed. Knowledgeable guides will track, follow and find leopards to give guests the best leopard-spotting opportunities possible. Don’t miss the chance to spend hours with leopards and their cubs, and follow these majestic spotted cats as well as lions while on the hunt.

Bountiful Wildlife

The Big Five roam free in the Sabi Sands Reserve which shares fenceless borders with the world-famous Kruger National Park. Aside from encounters with the famous Big Five, the reserve offers an abundance of game and is rich in birdlife boasting over 500 bird species. Don’t miss the chance to view the wide variety of wildlife from steenbok and Burchell’s zebra, to African civet and spotted hyena. Head out for a sunrise game drive to catch the early birds, enjoy a mid-morning guided walk or spot nocturnal species by torchlight on evening game drives for the greatest chance to see a variety of animals.
