Singita Sweni Lodge
Kruger National Park

Singita Sweni Lodge is made up of six wood and glass suites seemingly floating above Sweni River – luxurious tree houses enveloped by a dense canopy of verdant trees. Close proximity to the river ensures a constant panorama of visiting wildlife – a rich and thrillingly intimate scene. This sense of intimacy is also reflected in the lodge’s atmosphere. The suites are generous in the signature Singita style. The river views allow for action-packed bath times – nothing beats gazing down at hippos and elephants while soaking in bubbles. Choose between sleeping inside or out on a private covered deck.

Dinners offer a decadent experience with silver and china laid out in the bush lit by numerous candle lanterns. Do indulge in a private wine tasting in the cellars. Sweni Lodge is a truly boutique experience, the smaller scale allowing for a deeply tranquil atmosphere. The spa is excellent as well as the gym. Game drives are a highlight with the big five awaiting discovery as well as the flora and fauna of the jungle. As with all Singita lodges, children are well catered for here and welcomed with open arms. 

You either get the point of Africa or you don’t. What draws me backyear after year is that it is like the world with the lid off.
