Kruger National Park

Singita Lebombo

Overview

Contemporary wild

Nestled into the Lebombo Mountain range are 15 contemporary, glass-walled suites, drawing on eagles' nests for design inspiration. Each offers panoramic views over the N’waetsi River and the animals that meander their way along the banks each day.

Singita Lebombo takes the contemporary design of a luxury penthouse and immerses it into the wild of Africa - perfect for those that want the safari experience without compromising on style. Each suite boasts indoor and outdoor showers and a wooden viewing deck, complete with its own sleep out experience, allowing you to spend a night unwinding to the sound of the wild.

Situated on the south east of the Kruger National Park, on the border with Mozambique, the Singita Lebombo sits in a 13,350 hectare private concession of isolated wilderness where an incredible number and variety of animals can be found. Daily game drives, walking safaris and star gazing let you lose yourself in the varied landscapes, while a class at the on-site Singita Community Culinary School gives you a chance to meet the people behind scenes, enjoy fabulous food and support an innovative community project.
