Ulusaba

Ulusaba: safari according to R. Branson

It is in the Sabi Sand Game Reserve that Sir Richard Branson acquired Ulusaba, a 13,500-hectare private reserve, where he decided to create three luxury lodges: Rock Lodge, Cliff Lodge and Safari Lodge. Offering different bush experiences, the lodges feature a total of 11 rooms and 7 suites, harmoniously distributed across two sites. It is up to you to choose your African home! Rock Lodge, as its name suggests, is perched on the slopes of a superb rocky outcrop, offering breathtaking panoramic views over Kruger, with 4 rooms and 4 suites. Cliff Lodge, also perched, offers 2 splendid suites. Safari Lodge, meanwhile, has been built on the banks of a dry riverbed in a «tree-house» style, with 7 rooms overlooking a watering hole frequented by animals. Each lodge, with its stunning ethnic charm, offers a range of safari activities (by 4x4 and on foot) and a genuine wellness programme (swimming pool, gym and aromatherapy). Staying at Ulusaba also means taking part in sustainable tourism, resolutely focused on the development of local communities.
