A new era is dawning at Dulini River Lodge

Dulini River Lodge has been reimagined to encompass an elegant and understated camp that exudes a discreet sophistication with a refreshing joie de vivre.

Embraced by the riverine grandeur of ancient ebony trees, Dulini River Lodge enjoys an unsurpassable location overlooking the perennial Sand River in the world-renowned Sabi Sand Reserve.  

Creatively designed to emphasize the wonder of the magnificent riverine setting, the allure of the new-look lodge is that it surprises on arrival, from the unexpected entrance through the trees to its cantilevered deck - where it's not uncommon to secretly witness an elusive leopard pass by. 

This is where the 'real world' takes a back seat and guests can relax and enjoy a truly memorable safari experience. 

With only six blissfully cocooning suites, guests enjoy absolute seclusion and privacy. Inspired by the constantly changing beauty of the river the new interiors are tactile and textured with cool, neutral linens complementing washed wood and organic lines.  Every luxurious element takes its cue from life on the river, capturing its rippled reflections and the ever-changing palette of subtle hues to create a calming and utterly relaxing haven.

Each suite boasts a private heated plunge pool overlooking the river that inevitably lures guests after an exhilarating game drive in Dulini's comfortable six-seater vehicles.  No two game drives are ever the same in this pristine 10 000 hectare wilderness, where skilled Shangaan trackers and professional rangers tailor their drives around guests' interests and share their wealth of knowledge. The rich biodiversity of the reserve guarantees a rewarding Big Five game experience yet the bushveld chorus of birds, insects and riverine frogs at the lodge completes this African orchestra. 

Genuine warmth and thoughtful touches enhance every stay at Dulini River Lodge, where its passionate team welcome everyone with open arms, so much so that guests of Dulini often come as honeymooners but return time and again with family and friends. This time, our contemporary new look awaits!
