The stay

Sabi Sabi's most architectural lodge

Earth Lodge uses sculpted spaces, organic textures and a low-slung design to create a safari stay that feels markedly different from a traditional thatched lodge.

Who Earth Lodge suits

Earth Lodge suits couples who care about architecture and want spa and gym time alongside the drives; guests must be 13 or older unless it is booked exclusively, and the Amber Villa gives a group its own space. Access is through Sabi Sabi’s airstrip, Skukuza Airport or by road, and Spurwing can arrange the transfer.
