PLEASE NOTE: You are required to book your room at Lion Sands on the night of this sleep-out, in case of inclement weather or if your sense of adventure deserts you. The sleep-out charge is a supplementary cost to your accommodation and not a stand-alone rate.

Spend a night suspended between earth and sky in the magical Tinyeleti Treehouse — a soul-stirring escape into the heart of the African wilderness.

These one-of-a-kind, one-night adventures are seamlessly booked alongside your stay at the lodge.

You’ll pack a simple overnight bag, leaving the rest of your belongings behind in your suite — and step into a dream woven from starlight, silence, and the symphony of the bush.

Tinyeleti, meaning “many stars”, lives up to its name.

Overlooking the Sabie River in a secluded pocket of the private Lion Sands Game Reserve, this elevated sanctuary is the epitome of intimate outdoor luxury.

Here, it’s just you, the stars, and the wild.

The expansive 50m² deck is designed for couples in search of a romantic getaway or small families wanting to share an unforgettable experience (it comfortably hosts two adults and two children under 15). As the sun begins to dip beneath the horizon, a gourmet picnic is laid out — a thoughtful collection of handcrafted delicacies to indulge in while the evening comes alive.

Sip a chilled glass of wine as the bush unveils its secrets: hippos wade in the river below, lions roar in the distance, and elephants silently move beneath your perch.

And when the night wraps itself around you, sleep peacefully under a vast canopy of stars, cocooned in comfort and awe.

Come morning, you’ll wake to the first light of dawn and your favorite brew — yes, even your coffee ritual is part of this lovingly prepared overnight picnic basket.

It’s a moment that makes time stand still — a wild, luxurious memory etched forever in your heart.

Tinyeleti Treehouse isn’t just a stay — it’s a story you’ll never stop telling.
