Amaya
Luxury surrounded by the untamed wilderness
At Amaya, luxury is not defined by excess, but by space, stillness, and meaningful connection. With a maximum of eight guests, our philosophy is rooted in intimacy and presence, allowing you to slow down, tune in, and rediscover what truly matters. Each moment is thoughtfully designed to honour the rhythms of the wild and the quiet wisdom of the land. Here, time expands. The noise recedes. And in its place, a profound sense of belonging arises: to nature, to self, and to the stories that live within both.
Luxury Tented Suites
The spacious tent suites (newly built last year) seamlessly blend safari adventure with stylish comfort. Each suite features a private bathroom with a double vanity, shower, toilet, and a private open-air shower under the African sky. Air conditioning and ceiling fans ensure pleasant temperatures year-round.
From your secluded private veranda, enjoy uninterrupted views into the bush — perfect for spotting wildlife or simply soaking in the tranquility.
From your secluded private deck, enjoy uninterrupted views of the surrounding wilderness – an ideal spot to watch passing wildlife or simply soak in the serenity of the African bush.
Timbavati Nature Reserve
The place where legendary wildlife photography comes to life
Timbavati Game Reserve is one of South Africa’s premier photo safari destinations, offering wildlife photographers unparalleled opportunities for breathtaking shots. This 53,000-hectare private reserve borders the world-famous Kruger National Park (with open borders for the animals) and is renowned for its exceptional wildlife density and the legendary white lions of Timbavati.
In Timbavati, you’ll experience the quintessential South African bush landscape, providing perfect lighting conditions for stunning wildlife portraits. From dramatic sunrises to golden evenings, every moment becomes a photographic opportunity—helping you improve your skills while capturing images you’ll treasure forever.
Summerfield Rose Retreat & Spa
Time just for You.
Set on the banks of the Sabie River in Hazyview, Summerfields offers a 5-star luxury experience complete with an award-winning restaurant and a dreamy spa. This is barefoot-luxury at its finest—a place where you can awaken your senses, soothe your body and mind, and reconnect with your soul.
Summerfields Rose Retreat & Spa is set on a sprawling 100-hectare farm, featuring rolling hills that stretch down to the river, dotted with macadamia, lychee, and passion fruit plantations. Stroll through the orchards, listen to the soothing sounds of nature, indulge in the spa, or simply relax with a good book. At Summerfields, everything revolves around comfort and relaxation. And of course, there are countless opportunities for stunning photography—from exotic plants to beautiful birds, every corner is a visual delight.
Everything has been designed with the utmost care: the tent suites, the culinary offerings, the magnificent garden, the spa, and the boma with bar — everything invites you to let go. Simply let everyday stress fall away.
You will be accommodated in one of the luxurious tent suites, surrounded by the music of nature — the rustling of water, the concert of birds, and the occasional snort of a hippo. All suites are air-conditioned and additionally equipped with ceiling fans. They feature double vanities, an outdoor shower, a luxury bathtub, premium toiletries, and a minibar — for the ultimate in comfort.
Why not start dreaming of your luxury safari retreat in South Africa just here:
Sabi Sabi’s Little Bush Camp
Where serenity and sophistication form part of nature.
Located directly on the banks of the Msuthlu River, shaded by large trees along the river course, lies the smallest and most secluded of Sabi Sabi’s 5-star lodges. With understated elegance and classic safari style, the lodge is a true oasis of calm and relaxation. It is a refuge where you experience the African wilderness in its most beautiful form.
The meals are culinary highlights, and the imaginative hosts continually surprise you with extraordinary locations amidst the pristine South African bush — a feast for all the senses.
Luxury Safari Suites – Exclusive African Escape
Your luxurious suite was redesigned last year. It pampers you in a warm, cozy atmosphere with a spacious, airy bedroom featuring a lounge area, an elegant bathroom, and a sun deck with a private whirlpool. Large windows offer a picturesque view of the (mostly) dry riverbed and the surrounding bush landscape. The suites are standalone and thoughtfully arranged, making the feeling of the African wilderness a reality.
Sabi Sands Nature Reserve
Where luxury meets extraordinary wildlife encounters.
The landscape of Sabi Sands Game Reserve is a masterpiece of diversity – from winding riverbeds and iconic marula woodlands to open savannah plains. This rich variety of habitats attracts an equally rich abundance of wildlife, offering endless opportunities for breathtaking safari photography. Renowned as one of Africa’s most exclusive safari destinations, Sabi Sands spans 65,000 hectares and shares an unfenced border with the legendary Kruger National Park—giving wildlife free range and guests unparalleled chances for unforgettable encounters and photographic highlights.
World-Class Leopard Photography
Sabi Sands is world-famous for its leopard sightings. Here, these elusive big cats are so habituated to safari vehicles that you can capture intimate, close-up portraits in the perfect golden light—images that would be nearly impossible anywhere else.
