About Ulusaba

Ready to spot some spectacular wildlife? Ulusaba sits within the Sabi Sand Nature Reserve near the famous Kruger National Park, surrounded by around 33,000 acres of open bush. 

Ulusaba is known for the quality of its safari experience, with rangers and trackers whose expertise and instincts have been honed over countless seasons in the bush. Most people visit for the game and the sheer variety of wildlife sightings. Believe us, once you’ve experienced it, you’ll be hooked! 

Staying at Ulusaba 

Rock Lodge and Safari Lodge are being reimagined to bring you even closer to the raw beauty of the Sabi Sand. Inspired by Tsonga heritage, the new design will feature natural textures, warm earthy tones, and artisan detailing. All 20 suites will offer floor-to-ceiling glass doors, private plunge pools, and expansive decks with uninterrupted views of the African bush, while Cliff Lodge at Rock Lodge will become a private hideaway with more space, light, and sweeping vistas. Every detail is being designed to connect you seamlessly to nature.

Things to do 

Beyond the twice-daily game drives, Ulusaba offers a world of adventure and relaxation. Explore the bush on guided safari walks, watch wildlife from the Hide Viewing Deck, or unwind with a spa treatment before cocktails by the pool. Stay active with a game of tennis or pickleball, and embark on thrilling excursions that bring you closer to the untamed beauty of the Sabi Sand. Every moment at Ulusaba is designed to make your safari truly unforgettable.

Food and drink

Dining at Ulusaba is being reimagined as a celebration of pan-African flavours and seasonal, locally sourced ingredients. From breezy decks overlooking the plains to intimate private experiences, every meal connects you to the landscape and to each other. Fresh, vibrant, and unforgettable, Ulusaba’s cuisine brings the spirit of Africa to the table.
