Ulusaba Private Game Reserve

Ulusaba Game Reserve Hotel / Lodge accommodation in Hazyview Mpumalanga

Description

Ulusaba is situated in the famous Sabi Sand Game Reserve, one of Africa s finest Big Five safari destinations, adjacent to and effectively part of the Kruger National Park.

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.

Accommodation

There are two lodges at Ulusaba.

*One is perched high on the summit of a koppie (rocky hill) and is called Rock Lodge. Here you will find spectacular panoramic views over miles of bush, the wildlife roaming within, the beauty of the lowveld (bushy grassland plain) below, all set against a backdrop of the Drakensberg Moutain range far in the distance. Rock Lodge can accommodate up to 18 guests in 8 ultra-luxurious suites.
Rock Lodge Ulusaba

*Safari Lodge is built along the banks of the dry Mabrak riverbed. The rooms are built tree house style and you really get the feeling of being at the heart of life in the bush. Your room will provide fascinating views of the animals as they stroll past on their way to the nearby watering hole. Safari Lodge accommodates 20 guests in seven luxury King-bedded chalets and three stunning suites.

At both camps game viewing is done in open 4x4 Land Rovers with an armed ranger and tracker. Walking safaris are also conducted. Guests can relax in the Aroma Boma Beauty Treatment Spa, use the state of the art gymnasium, or enjoy a game of tennis on one of our two courts complete with Viewing Pavilion. (Rackets and balls provided)

The exclusivity of Ulusaba affords us the luxury of personally overseeing each guest s visit and the opportunity to welcome you into our special family.
