Close encounters of a different kind, are the kind of experiences that will linger in your memory long after your visit to Shumbalala. Leopard, considered by many to be the most prized sighting, are often encountered. This lodge has been rated as 5 star by the South African Tourism Grading Council.

Nestled under magnificent trees on the bank of a river bed overlooking an active water hole lie four suites and two superior suites with plunge pool. Accommodating a maximum of eight guests, exclusivity and personalised service are hall marks of this intimate camp. Accommodation and decor embraces natural colours and fabrics - pure linens, cottons and soft leathers abound - with comforts such as overhead fans, air conditioning, open fireplaces, glass fronts and private viewing decks. Sublime cuisine and walk-in underground wine cellar (in full view of the water hole) compliment the informal atmosphere. A conference facility is just one more plus on offer at Shumbalala.

Your qualified and experienced ranger and tracker are ever present - accompanying you on early morning and afternoon/evening game drive safaris in our specially built bush vehicle, offering the comfort of individual bucket seats. Bush walks for the adventurous are a facinating experience, as you discover the wonderful design of nature as each living creature, from the mictoscopic to the largest mammal lives in harmony with the trees and flora. Morning coffee and evening sundowners are enjoyed in the open veldt, often in close range of wildlife.
