Idube Game Pool
Game Viewing Hide

Absorb the timeless tranquility and beauty of the African bush. Cool down in the sparkling swimming pool, or relax on the vast lawn in the shade of giant Jackalberry trees. To get away from it all, cross the suspended walkway to the game viewing hide at Shadulu dam, where you can sit quietly and watch the elephants bathing or the lions come down to quench their thirst.

Designed for indulgent comfort, the luxurious individually decorated chalets are equipped with air conditioning, overhead fans and mosquito screens. Outside showers offer the perfect solution to a hot day. Leave the main door open at night, safe behind the screen door and listen to Africa's unique night sounds, the distant roar of a lion and the cackling of a hyena. Wake in the morning to the dawn chorus of hundreds of different birds.

Luxury en-suite rooms
Guided Bush Walks

Daily morning and evening game drives on open Landrovers and bush walks led by skilled rangers and Shangaan trackers promise close encounters of the wild kind with an infinite array of animals, including the Big 5, birds and reptiles. The Sabi Sands Game Reserve is a wildlife photographer's paradise. Guided bush walks may bring you face to face with giraffe, zebra, rhinos and various other wild animals. The expert guide will unveil the rich textures of the African earth and the fascinating uses of the Lowveld's plant life.

Savour hearty bush breakfasts and midday feasts. Indulge in delicious South African fare in the bush boma (reed-enclosed dining area) beneath a twinkling sky. The specialties of the house include imaginative venison delights, complemented by a fine selection of South African wines. From the superb cuisine to the unforgettable game viewing, Idube has it all. Come and experience it!
