Sabi Sands

Lion Sands Tinga Lodge

‘Outstanding Lodge in the Heart of the Wild’

Lion Sands Tinga Lodge is an historic lodge situated on a private concession within the world-renowned Kruger National Park. Just feet from the banks of the Sabie River, this lodge looks out over the stunning vista that makes up the national park. Accommodation here comes in the form of 9 luxurious and spacious suites, each with its own plunge pool. The lodge itself is decorated in the style of a traditional game reserve lodge, creating a comfortable and intimate atmosphere for guests. Entertainment comes in the form of twice daily game drives, bush walks and meals eaten around the glow of an open fire. Sheer bliss.

In Our Opinion

‘A beautiful and relaxed resort where game is plentiful and the atmosphere is friendly.’

Dining
There is no designated on-site restaurant in the traditional sense of the word at Lion Sands.  Beautiful home cooked food is served in the homely surroundings of the lodge, at normal meal time intervals. Food will be provided if safaris are taking place over meal times.

The reserve runs two game drives per day – one in the early morning and one in the early evening, times when the temperature is best for animals to wander about. Game drives take place in Land Rovers with experienced and qualified guides who will provide you with information about the land and its inhabitants.
