Earth lodge was our honeymoon's first stop. It was also the first safari experience for both of us, which meant we didn't know what to expect and just hoped it would be amazing. So was it amazing ?? Amazing falls short of what this was!!!! I really have no words to express how perfect, exciting, wonderful, and romantic our stay... More

I have to agree with a fellow reviewer, that it's difficult to evaluate this lodge as a place to sleep. It's much more than that. It's is a unique experience in your lifetime. It all started with the reservation. My wife and I made reservations for 3 nights in Bush Lodge which is another hotel in Sabi Sabi. To our... More

It is hard to evaluate this lodge as a place to sleep. There is so much more to this lodge then just your sleeping accommodations. Firstly, as you are welcomed with drinks by the staff they will show you the lodge and offer the itineraries for the days coming. And they will be some of the most memorable days of... More

Our stay at Earth Lodge was the end of a totally fantastic honeymoon in South Africa and we couldn't have wished for a better ending. We spent three days at Earth Lodge, which they had upgraded us to from the Bush Lodge. On arrival we were shown to our suite which was stunning and so beautifully done and luxurious whilst... More

My daughter and I stayed at the Earth Lodge for 3 nights last month and we had an amazing time. The lodge is in the middle of a game reserve and the suites are built into the earth. It's rustic and beautiful. Our Ranger Joe and his son and tracker Kenny were fantastic. We saw every animal we hoped to... More

Wow! Me and my wife visited South Africa last year - we did the garden route, through the Eastern Cape and then up to the bush before returning to Johanesburg to fly home. It was 2 weeks of awe inspiring scenery and friendly visits. By far the best experience we had was at Sabi Sabi, Earth lodge. You don't appreciate... More

We like to go on a five star family holiday every year and combine the best of everything with a new adventure experience, after travelling through Vietnam the year before we did some research on South Africa for our 2011 adventure. As we travel frequently every year we rely on advice from our agent who specializes in all things 5... More

On approaching Earth Lodge, one can already sense that there is a difference here. There is no grandiose approach as one comes near, no sweeping view of the camp with wooden walkways stretching out alongside a river bank, no sense of a human enclave pitted against the rugged wilderness. Instead, what greets you is a perfectly normal grassy hill in... More
