Lion Sands – Narina Lodge

Nestled within the serene embrace of the African bush, Lion Sands Narina Lodge beckons as a sanctuary of peace and tranquility. Situated in the southern Kruger National Park on a 5,000-hectare private concession bordering the Sabi Sand Game Reserve, the lodge offers a unique game-viewing experience with wildlife freely crossing between the two reserves.

Your safari adventure will include morning and late afternoon game drives, as well as bush exploration on foot with a qualified ranger and tracker. With game drive vehicles accommodating a maximum of six guests, each individual is guaranteed a prime “window” seat for optimal photography and unrestricted game-viewing, both on and off-road.

Linked by elevated wooden walkways, nine treehouse-inspired suites grace the banks of the Sabie River, boasting sweeping views, private decks with plunge pools, spacious bathrooms, and living areas. The main lodge features inviting lounges with crackling fireplaces, and a dining deck nestled beneath a canopy of ancient trees. Treat yourself to indulgent spa treatments at the Spa & Wellness Centre before gathering around the cozy open-air boma, where the tantalizing aroma of a sizzling meal fills the air as you share the day’s adventures with fellow travelers.
