Description

Crowned Best Safari Lodge in the 2017 World Luxury Hotel Awards, Chitwa Chitwa is more than a destination—it’s an exquisite retreat where untamed nature and refined luxury fall perfectly in love.

Nestled beside the largest lake in the exclusive 63,000-hectare Sabi Sand Private Game Reserve, Chitwa Chitwa offers front-row seats to nature’s greatest spectacle.

Here, the wild comes to you—elephants, antelope, and big cats wander to the water’s edge, visible right from the lodge’s elegant lounge, alfresco dining spaces, and your own private deck.

Every moment at Chitwa Chitwa feels cinematic.
Set beneath the sweeping branches of ancient Knobthorn trees, the lodge flows seamlessly into the bush. Expansive wooden decks, soft daybeds, and a breathtaking rim-flow pool invite you to slow down and soak in the stillness.

As golden sunsets spill across the lake, the air fills with the calls of the wild—backdrop to moments of stillness, wonder, and shared awe.

The lodge is a harmonious blend of African soul and European sophistication.

Earthy textures meet sleek modern finishes; handcrafted pieces pair with curated contemporary décor, creating a space that’s as stylish as it is soulful.

For those moments between game drives, indulge in a quiet escape to the on-site library, reawaken your senses at the luxury spa, or share a peaceful workout with a view at the private gym.

Chitwa Chitwa is where romance meets raw beauty—where you fall in love not only with each other, but with Africa itself.

Lazy afternoons can be spent lounging at the pool, in the library or at the spa where massages, wraps, masks, exfoliations and a variety of other treatments are offered.
