Situated in the middle of Kruger National Park, between the idyllic Limpopo and Mpumalanga provinces in South Africa, the Singita Lebombo Lodge is the place where you can be at the closest possible proximity to the African wildlife. It is accessible through a number of ways, either an 8-hour drive from the capital of South Africa, Johannesburg, or a two to three hour’s drive from Skukuza. There are daily flight as well, from O.R. Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg to Singita Kruger National Park.
We would need countless days and books to depict everything one can experience or do at this location. The resort excels in luxury through details, from gestures to décors. At arrival, the friendly staff members greet guests warmly, bottles of exquisite African wines are elegantly uncorked in front of you and cold drinks are provided at every step, to make you feel as comfortable as possible.
The Singita Lebombo Lodge comprises a total of 15 bespoke suites, with outside showers, Zen modernism and superb climate. There are an entire array of amenities available, from air conditioning and direct dial phones to Wi-Fi. The apogee is that the huge window-like glass walls provide absolutely incredible, breathtaking views of the Kruger National Parks and its plethora of species of wildlife and vegetation.
Among other things, one will always be with you during your stay to make you feel wonderful – the sky – bright during the day and starlit, during nights. You may choose to even sleep beside the lap pool under the starry night sky, just to wake up in the morning with a cool, exquisite cocktail in your hand.
There’s a whole list of options of what to do at this stunning location, including photo-shooting the local species of wildlife – birds, giraffes and big African cats – in the National Geographic way, embarking on Land Rover safaris to see the animals up-close, practice archery techniques or simply taking a swim into the resort’s lap pool.
There’s a nightly price tag of ZAR 24,500 or €2,327, which is pretty affordable to anybody. If not, it’s a great idea to spend your hard-earned economies on a vacation like this. Memories are the most precious gifts you’ll ever have.
