Discover the Diverse Wildlife of Lion Sands Game Reserve
Add something truly special and spectacular to your stay at any of the Lion Sands safari lodges. Lion Sands boasts three absolutely stunning tree houses offering you a complete fresh perspective on the South African bush. Sleeping under the stars in complete privacy whilst listening to the sounds of the bush is an unparalleled experience. A night in a tree house can be booked as an add on when staying at River, Ivory, Narina or Tinga Lodge. The tree house experience is an extremely popular option so we recommend booking as early as possible.
The Sabi Sands Treehouses are the ultimate bush bedrooms. You will be taken to your tree house at sunset to enjoy mouthwatering picnic dinner and spend the hours of sunset fully appreciating the vastness of the African bush as it transforms from day to night.
All Lion Sands tree houses are securely constructed above the ground, where animals will remain at a safe and comfortable distance. Your dedicated ranger will provide a full orientation when he drops you off before sunset, and will remain on call via the radio left behind until it is time to leave the following morning after sunrise and a good cup of coffee.
Embrace a night under the stars away from noise and clutter, where you are fully immersed into the essence of nature’s tranquil magnificence. Lion Sands Treehouse is a secure, completely private and lavish platform built around a majestic 500-year-old Leadwood Tree. Luxury and simplicity in the treetops is a breathtaking addition to round off the perfect luxury African safari holiday.
The Lion Sands Chalkley Treehouse is a 10-minute drive from Lion Sands Ivory Lodge and Lion Sands River Lodge and is completely secluded, offering guests a uniquely private safari adventure under the stars – a rare experience that few places in the world can offer.
