Overview

Sabi Sabi Little Bush Camp is an upmarket, intimate safari camp within the exclusive Sabi Sabi Game Reserve, in the greater Kruger area of north eastern South Africa. Nestled on the banks of the seasonal Msuthlu River and shaded by riverine woodland, this small, elegant establishment offers just six contemporary suites with private Jacuzzi, a communal swimming pool, and friendly, expert hosting and guiding. The camp will appeal to travellers on a higher budget seeking personalised and efficient service, and a tranquil, highly comfortable setting.

Communal areas include an open-plan lounge and bar and a dining room with individual tables and a choice of indoor and alfresco seating. Outside is a refreshing swimming pool with loungers, and an outdoor ‘boma’ for atmospheric evening meals beneath the stars.

Activities include early morning and afternoon game drives and walks with expert guides. Wildlife is abundant year-round, and resident animals include the Big 5 (lion, leopard, rhino, Cape buffalo, and elephant) plus cheetah, giraffe, wild dog, impala and hippo. The birdlife is also prolific, with over 300 species identified. The camp encourages visits into the local community which provide a great opportunity to meet the residents of nearby villages and learn about rural day to day life. Guests are invited to use the Spa facilities at sister properties Earth Lodge and Bush Lodge, a short drive away, and in-room massages can also be arranged on request.

The accommodation comprises just six well-appointed thatched suites, positioned on both sides of the main area, and spaced apart for privacy. Each individually styled suite has a king size bed draped with mosquito nets, and a spacious, modern en-suite stone bathroom with separate bathtub and rainfall shower, twin washbasins, and WC, plus an indulgent outdoor shower. All units come with air conditioning. Outside, there’s a private veranda complete with an inviting Jacuzzi, ideal for relaxing and watching the wildlife in the surrounding bush.

Children are warmly welcome at Sabi Sabi Little Bush Camp, subject to the property being booked by a group on an exclusive basis. Note that a sister property on the same reserve, Sabi Sabi Bush Lodge, offers family accommodation, along with qualified childcare, and an activity programme for little ones.

  • Thank you, we had an absolute wonderful time, and everything was well-planned and as described. Carla was crying on the day of our departure from Ants Nest, she didn’t want to go home and for it all to end, and when I asked how much longer she would want to stay, she responded “four weeks”

  • It was certainly a holiday of a lifetime for us and we loved every minute!! The standard and location of each accommodation was excellent, as was the variety of each different accommodation type. Our schedule was perfect and we managed to achieve everything on our to-do task list. Your documents were also really helpful, as were the driving directions. We all thank you for making this such a wonderful holiday. Happy to leave a review publicly if you point me the right way. Best Steve

  • Hi Lisa, We had a fabulous time thank you. The accommodation and other ideation were all terrific - that’s so much for your help. The apartment in Cape Town was particularly good - we would never have found that: Boschendal was great as well and game lodge was superb. Thanks again, Alistair
