Simbavati Waterside

Settled on the shores of a large dam in the Southern Klaserie Private Nature Reserve within Kruger National Park, this immersive lodge was designed to be a natural extension of the wilderness that surrounds it. Throughout the year, animals are drawn to the dam to cool off so you may be lucky enough to witness some memorable animal sightings outside of your safari drives. The lodge displays a sophisticated décor inspired by its natural surroundings and is considerate of every kind of traveller, with plenty of private and intimate spaces for couples as well as sociable spaces for families and friends. Offering an array of facilities to make your stay comfortable, they include a swimming pool, spa, gym, lounge, wine cellar and multiple Boma’s. The unhurried hours between morning and afternoon game drives are the perfect time to indulge in a spa treatment or a rest by the pool.

Dining is a delight with delicious, authentic cuisine. Several times a week, dinner is offered as a more campfire-style meal served in a boma, a traditional enclosure with a central fire pit for open air meals or drinks under the stars.

Each of the suites which showcase a subtle, nature-inspired décor feature a private game viewing deck and views over the dam.

For something truly special and for longer stays why not opt to have one of your nights in the unique Shilope Sleep Out Deck. Elevated above the beautiful Klaserie wilderness and situated in a perfectly private part of the reserve, this luxury tent offers unparalleled views across the unspoilt bush and the starry sky. Please be aware this activity replaces the regular evening and morning safari drives.

AI Luxury Suite: spacious and stylish, featuring a game viewing deck overlooking the dam.

AI Luxury Suite with Kolkol Tub: as above yet boasting a small private KolKol tub (heated by a wood-fire in winter) on the private deck.

AI Two Bedroom Luxury Suite: ideal for families, this suite feature two separate bedrooms along with a game viewing deck from the master bedroom.

Shilope Sleep Out Deck: a unique experience that is offered as a one-night option as part of your wider stay where you will be at your usual suite. This memorable experience takes you to a private part of the resort with its own roof deck for star gazing and a magical sunset.
