Taste the spoils of Africa - in the peace and tranquillity of the unspoilt South African bush veldt. Ulusaba Private Game Reserve is set in the heart of the Sabi Sands Game Reserve that borders the sprawling Kruger National Park in South Africa's Mpumalanga province, Ulusaba awaits as your ultimate destination for a Big Five safari in South Africa. Because Ulusaba is privately owned, you'll be able to enjoy over 10 000 acres of unspoilt, game-rich bush in near solitude. Experienced trackers and game rangers will accompany you on game drives in open land rovers, tracking the Big Five and sharing with you their vast knowledge of the surrounding wildlife.

As a private game reserve, Ulusaba's emphasis is on exceptional personal service. Both of the Ulusaba luxury safari lodges cater for small groups, so your safari in South Africa is guaranteed to be exclusive and private. What's more, our attentive staff and superb facilities will ensure that being in the middle of the African bush does not need to mean foregoing creature comforts. You'll have the unique sights, sounds and smells of Africa on your doorstep - while still enjoying the kind of style and luxury you'd expect from a five star boutique hotel.

Excerpt From The Ulusaba Safari Lodge Guest Book

.... Difficult to find words to describe what an extraordinary place you have here and how wonderful it has been to share it over the last few days. The natural beauty, the animals, the light, the souls and lovely, warm, helpful people. .....

 

Ulusaba Rock Lodge

Sit back and survey the scene at the top. There are two telescopes, one specifically designed for viewing the night sky. Nothing like a bit of stargazing before bedtime. The view inside is just as luscious. The granite rock of the koppie is a key feature of the lodge's design and each room has the colours of a different African tribe. Accommodation comprises of four Rock Rooms, four Rock Cliff Rooms, and a stunning stand alone, split level Master Suite, which is sure to bring out the romantic in you. The Rock Suite which comprises of two bedrooms, each with en-suite, is ideal for those wishing to bring little cubs of their own! All rooms and suites have air-conditioning and fans.

.... Unforgettable! Ulusaba is truly somewhere special. Definitely the best holiday we have had, exceeding all our expectations by a long way. Amazing safari drives, every animal you could wish to see, up close and personal. Fantastic host’s brilliant food and memories we will always remember. We will definitely be returning. Thank you all. Oh yes … and fantastic wine! .....

 

Attractions and Activities at Ulusaba Private Game Reserve

Cubs of all ages are welcome at Ulusaba Rock Lodge and will be invited to take part in Ulusaba Cub's Club. On arrival at Ulusaba all cubs will be given a Cub's Club Backpack which contains lots of little goodies to help keep them entertained and to help to educate them about the African Bush. In every cub's room there will be a special welcome letter and a list of phone numbers they can dial from their room so it is easy for them to get hold of other members of their pride, along with Ulusaba staff. Also for their safety, we have security guards on duty all night who will pay particular attention to rooms occupied by cubs. We have lots of games up our sleeve and we always try to combine entertainment with some education. Your ranger will be more than happy to spend time with your cubs to tell them all about the bush and the animals they see.

As if some of the finest game viewing, cuisine and views in Africa weren’t already enough, not to mention luxurious rooms and staff that make you feel so at home, Ulusaba also has a boutique spa which must have the most exciting location of almost any spa on Earth. Located at Rock Lodge, 800 feet above the African Savannah, The Aroma Boma Virgin Touch Salon offers a fabulous range of treatments to help you relax and unwind after the excitement of game drive. A liftosome facial uses a high concentration of vitamin C and proteins to strengthen elasticity and firmness whilst stimulating cellular regeneration. Our resident beautician also offers aromatherapy massages, manicures, pedicures and waxing. Treatments may be done in your room or on your private balcony.

Twice daily Ulusaba game drives in open 4x4 game viewing safari vehicles and nature walks are included in the rate. The excellent game viewing experience is complimented by other activities such as stargazing, bird watching and moonlit bush dinners or sundowners (weather permitting). The Ulusaba daily walk usually commences after breakfast. This is a fascinating activity as it allows you to observe the smaller animals that you would usually not see while out on drive. Our knowledgeable ranger and tracker will enthral you with stories about the medicinal properties of plants, local beliefs regarding the wildlife and fascinating facts regarding the animals.

The community tour takes place outside the reserve in the local village. This tour offers a fascinating insight into modern Shangaan lifestyle. You will be welcomed into a pre-primary school where the children will delight you with their songs. You can also expect to see some traditional singing and dancing as well as being welcomed into a traditional home where you will see corn being ground and be given a chance to taste traditional foods. Price available upon request.

Ulusaba have 2 floodlit tennis courts which have tennis rackets, tennis balls and a fully stocked bar! The Arts and Craft shop is located at Safari Lodge. A selection of arts crafts and small gifts are available for yourself or friends and family back home. We also have clothing ranging from caps, shirts, beanies and gloves… anything you might need.
