“The Sabi Sand Under Canvas”

Resting comfortably under a canopy of indigenous trees in the southern stretches of the Sabi Sand sits the inimitable and understated Umkumbe Bush Lodge. Overlooking a waterhole with a brand-new infinity pool and outdoor bar, Umkumbe Bush Lodge is perfectly situated in one of the best Big Five game viewing destinations in Africa. This luxury tented camp offers all the creature comforts of home, and is the first of its kind in the reserve. The build of the lodge is based on the idea of glamping, but with a luxurious twist. The canvas tents allow you to hear the lions roar and hyenas cackle from the comfort of your bed and the safety of your tent at night, a truly unique experience in the bush!
