&Beyond Tengile River Lodge
Lodge style Tranquil river views
Contemporary luxury suites with sweeping river views
&Beyond Tengile River Lodge only opened recently and definitely makes a lasting impression; it has that wow factor that makes a South African safari truly unforgettable. Tengile River Lodge is situated in the southern sector of the Sabi Sands and holds a rustic private position on a bend of the Sabi River. It is also -very conveniently- located close to Skukuza Airport making your journey to this beautiful little corner of the world a seamless experience.
The guest areas of the lodge offer a mixed selection of open and private spaces. Bespoke pieces of artwork and furniture, together with contemporary African fabrics and finishes, celebrate the talent of local designers and artists. The design of the main lodge areas ensure a seamless indoor-outdoor flow, with the viewing deck a highlight point.
Only nine secluded suites, nestles in the shade of a cool riverine forest, make up Tengile River Lodge. Each suite offers an extraordinary amount of space: besides a master bedroom, outdoor shower and spectacular bathroom, there is a private lounge area, dining area and bar, as well as a spectacular outdoor deck with private swimming pool.
Activities at Tengile River Lodge
Wildlife magic is the focus of your stay at &Beyond Tengile River Lodge in Sabi Sands. Twice daily game drives, as well as interpretive bushwalks, are part of your safari experience. In between all these activities, unwind after brunch or lunch on your deck overlooking the Sabi River and keep an eye out buffalo, elephant or other wildlife for which the Sabi Sands is famous. Top off your stay with excellent gourmet food - paired with beautiful South African wines and, of course, excellent service. Top end? Yes, but the intimate, warm staff and authentic feel make Tengile River Lodge a real safari paradise - one that you will leave with a deep South Africa connection in your heart and soul. The massage and gym area offers guests yet another haven of well-being and tranquillity.

Tripadvisor comments Tengile Lodge Lodge
Huge suites with every conceivable comfort! So much living space! Double-mini bar fridges with complimentary beverages, charming outdoor balcony spaces, massive bedroom and bathroom, tons of closet storage, many "wow" moments on arrival! Tengile is a very special property. Ultra-luxurious, very high food and beverage quality, and set by the river so you can watch herds of elephants crossing or grazing from your balcony, and in the public areas, lots of impala and nyala roaming freely.

Tengile is a luxury resort within a gorgeous landscape surrounded by beautiful animals! The food, service, accommodations and safari guides were all wonderful! We saw lots of exciting wildlife and learned so much about the animals and their habitat. In addition to the animals, each drive included a fun stop for refreshments, and even a Bush Breakfast one morning. This was a trip of a lifetime!
