- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
-
This magnificent property situated in Balule Reserve, a 40,000 ha reserve in the Greater Kruger National Park, is built on the banks of the mighty Olifants River, which provides many opportunities for game viewing even while in camp ... watch families of elephants who have come down to bathe, lazy hippos surfacing for a yawn, a skittish herd of impala drinking nervously ... and listen for the cry of a fish eagle. At Singwe River Lodge we provide a memorable and affordable luxurious Big Five game experience in a low-risk malaria area, with excellent accommodation in a luxury lodge, delicious food and warm African hospitality. We pride ourselves on the personal attention that each guest receives. Shaded by giant fig trees, the beautiful, tranquil game lodge has accommodation for up to 12 adults in a Manor House and three thatched riverside chalets, a large swimming pool and rolling lawns which extend down to the banks of the Olifants River. Our dinners are served in our African Boma under the night sky around a roaring fire. Alternatively, we serve our meals in our thatched dining area or on the wooden decks overlooking the river.Children of all ages are welcome and a child-minding service is available if parents wish to dine alone or go on a game drive. Singwe is easily accessed with daily flights from Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban to three international airports close by. The nearest, Eastgate International Airport at Hoedspruit, is about 37 km from Singwe. We can arrange road transfers from the airport to the lodge, as well as from Nelspruit, Phalaborwa and OR Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg.
