Earth Lodge
Location
Sabi Sands Reserve
Earth Lodge is a luxury safari lodge that redefines natural elegance among South Africa’s finest safari accommodations. Sculpted into a slope of the earth, almost invisible in the landscape, the lodge uses texture, light and space to create a unique and captivating aesthetic. Taking its cue from the surrounding environment, it has been described as the most environmentally sensitive lodge in Africa. Thirteen deluxe suites feature individually designed furniture, private plunge pool, en-suite glass-fronted bathroom, indoor and outdoor showers and butler service. Natural wooden sculptures by renowned South African artist Geoffrey Armstrong add to the rich ambience.
Shared spaces include an indoor/outdoor dining area overlooking a waterhole and unending bushveld, a secluded library, art gallery and meditation garden. The outdoor boma, its walls sculpted from tree roots, captures the drama of the African night and evokes the power of the wilderness. The lodge also boasts an underground wine cellar with more than 6,000 bottles of rare wines to complement the impeccable cuisine. And following a day on safari in the wilds, retreat to the comforts of the Amani Spa, where holistic body, skin and beauty treatments await. Earth Lodge offers an unforgettable indulgence in luxury in one of the world’s premier natural settings.
