Request a quoteChitwa Chitwa Game Lodge sits on the largest lake in the Sabi Sand Game Reserve, adjacent to Kruger National Park. The lodge’s waterside position attracts elephants, leopards, lions, and hippos directly to camp through the day, with much of the game viewing happening from the main deck.
Accommodation covers three options. Chitwa House is a private two-bedroom property with its own lake-view deck and pool. Six individually decorated suites each open onto a lake view with their own private plunge pool. The Charlsy Suite works for families, with two en-suite rooms joined by a living area, a bathroom with bathtub, and a private deck with pool.
Twice-daily game drives in open Land Rovers run with a ranger and Shangaan tracker, on a reserve known for leopard and lion. Bush walks, photographic safaris, and cultural visits to the nearby Shangaan village of Dixie fill the rest of the activity programme. A holistic spa, library, and rim-flow pool above the lake handle the slower hours.
Dining at Chitwa Chitwa moves with the day and the bush. Breakfasts and lunches are served on the suite decks or the main lodge terrace overlooking the lake, with sundowners and canapés on the elevated decks.
Dinners range from plated multi-course menus to bush braais and a wood-fired pizza setup under the stars. An underground wine cellar, built around the natural granite floor, holds the South African list.
The lodge holds a holistic spa for massages, body wraps, masks, and exfoliations, with a gym for anyone keeping to a routine in the bush.
Each of the six suites comes with its own private plunge pool, and a rim-flow pool stretches along the main deck above the lake. A library and a shaded sunset deck handle the slower hours between game drives.
