Why we love it
Ebony, Singita’s original Lodge, is situated in the heart of the Sabi Sands Reserve set on the banks of the Sand River under the shade of enormous jackalberry trees in the heart of South Africa’s big cat country. This exclusive lodge has 12 stunning suites with magnificent views overlooking the bushveld. En-suite bathrooms, an indoor-outdoor shower, private heated plunge pools, and spacious game viewing decks complete the luxurious accommodation.
Spacious interiors which are styled with a varied mix of rich colours, boast timeworn colonial furniture and ethnic crafts which merge with hand-woven fabric to form inviting textures and layers, making Singita Ebony Lodge an ideal retreat to enjoy the true “armchair safari”.
The lodge offers game drives twice daily which are accompanied by expert guides, to find and track the Big Five which are found in the area.

Absolutely amazing holiday. Garonga is heaven! We did everything possible and our guide was brilliant and hilarious. I can definitely recommend True Travel for their excellent advice and professionalism – they clearly are very knowledgeable about where they send their clients and made sure we had a worry-free holiday that perfectly suited us. We were particular grateful for the collection off our flight and help onto our transfer in Johannesburg, which included a very nifty queue jump due to their reputation!
