Ulusaba Rock Lodge

Lodge style Exclusivity with a view

Stunning views with a luxury room

Of all lodges located in the Sabi Sands Game Reserve, Ulusaba Rock Lodge is probably one of the lodges offering the most amazing views over the South African bushveld. Ulusaba Rock Lodge is situated on a hilltop offering uninterrupted panorama views. With just ten rooms in total, you can be sure to enjoy an intimate experience. This luxurious safari lodge is distinctly African in style: traditional art and furnishings blend seamlessly with modern conveniences, ensuring maximum comfort. The main lodge is under thatch and boasts extensive viewing decks where guests can appreciate the vistas. Soak in the natural rock pool, in between game drives and bush walks, or enjoy a relaxing treatment in the luxurious spa.

The rooms are spacious and offer everything you need: air-conditioning for hot African afternoons, a big bathroom and a wellstocked minibar. All rooms are individually decorated and inspired on both modern and traditional African art. The 'Master Suite' and two 'Makwela Suites' have their own private plunge pools. Wildlife roams freely in the Sabi Sands so you may get lucky and watch the 'Big Five' from the privacy of your own room.

As you may expect from a stay at Ulusaba, the food experience is truly excellent. The staff is always at your service, you don’t need to worry about anything. Ulusaba Rock Lodge will provide you with that once-in-a-lifetime and unforgettable Africa safari experience.

Tripadvisor comments Ulusaba Rock Lodge

From what I had read before going I had high expectations for Ulusaba, I had underestimated how amazing this place is in real life. The lodge is impeccable, service top notch, the thought of the food still makes my mouth water, and the game drives and guide knowledge were second to none (as an aside, we saw the big 5, cheetah, and so many others). As my wife and I were on our honeymoon, the experience had to be perfect - and the staff at Ulusaba did everything they could to make our time at the lodge an incredible experience! I know that plenty of people have said this before: but I believe my only regret is not staying longer.

My wife and I spent 4 nights of our honeymoon at Ulusaba Rock Lodge and could not have been more pleased with our stay there. I used Tripadvisor extensively when researching our trip and despite all the pros and cons that come across in the reviews and message boards, Ulusaba was well above all our expectations. We considered many lodges including Londolozi, Mala Mala, Exeter, & Singita. Ulusaba provides the ultra-luxe ambiance yet retains a casual state of mind. Everything from the staff, to the facilities, to the game drives certainly exceeded any expectations that we had. From arrival to departure, you are treated with the utmost care and concern- practically as family. The staff was amazing - from James, the day manager, Duard and Anton - our Tracker & Ranger, to Ian the chef - the relationships formed are priceless. They truly know how to make their guests feel welcomed and cared for. We knew that there are a plethora of fine game lodge in Sabi Sands, but we would never hesitate to recommend Ulusaba to anyone! Thank you to all the Ulusaba staff and we hope to see you all soon!

Game viewing in Sabi Sands is such a treat, the best - and to stay at Ulusaba is out of this world. There is no comparable place to this spectacular lodge so if you are looking for something truly unique and extremly good Ulusaba is your prime choice. Rock lodge is build high high up on a cliff with a view and setting so stunning it takes days just to realise you are not dreaming. The Ulusaba Family not only cares and pampers you in the best way they also make you feel included in the "family" along with the other guest. The food is above all expectations and the Game Drives totally amazing.
