Ulusaba Private Game Reserve is Sir Richard Branson's safari lodge
where guests can taste the spoils of Africa in peace and tranquillity.

Ulusaba, meaning 'Place of Little Fear' strikes the perfect balance between nature and nurture - as well as being an excellent place to observe the 'Big Five', it is also an ideal place to kick back and unwind. Ulusaba re-defines the rules of a safari lodge and has taken a step away from the traditional colonial style by offering swimming pools, gymnasiums, a wine cellar, Aroma Boma spas with panoramic views and tennis courts. With all of these facilities, you really need to plan your days so you can enjoy safari walks, moon-lit bush dinners and of course, the twice daily game drives

Star rating: 5 STAR

Accommodation description:

Guests can share their time between the two lodges, Rock Lodge and Safari Lodge, which offer two unique experiences to a holiday (many guests choose to split their time between the two). Rock Lodge is perched high on the summit of a koppie and provides panoramic views over miles of bush, the wildlife roaming within and the beauty of the lowveld below.
 
Safari Lodge is built along the banks of the dry Mabrak riverbed, where guests will love the sense of adventure as they cross the swing bridges between exquisite tree house rooms while elephants, bushbuck, lion and other local wildlife pass by.

Guests can book individual rooms or exclusively hire individual lodges or the hotel as a whole - ideal for weddings and celebrations.
