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.

Tripadvisor comments Tengile Lodge Lodge

Our stay at Tengile River lodge was nothing short of spectacular. We went as a group of 14 friends in celebration of a 40th birthday and the stay was absolutely sublime. The lodge is stunning and every detail is considered. The rooms were beautiful and there was a part of me that never wanted to leave it but with the game awaiting us, we had to head into the bush. The game viewing was the best I have ever experienced and we had seen the whole big 5 by our second drive.

We have just returned from Tengile River Lodge and I am still feeling sad to have left this wonderful camp. Not only is it the most luxurious of them all (beating all Singita lodges) it is warm as in the wonderful ambience and tremendous staff who love working there. Game viewing was the best ever with the amazing tracker Richard and Ranger Matt there tracking and spotting was out of this world.
