Simbavati Amani
Safari Lodge situated in the Klaserie Private Nature Reserve within the Greater Kruger National Park.




Location
Klaserie Private Nature Reserve, which is a wildlife-rich concession of land adjoining the western border of the Kruger National Park.

DESCRIPTION:
Situated within the Klaserie Private Nature Reserve, Simbavati Amani is a contemporary safari lodge surrounded by the mesmerising beauty of the Greater Kruger. Bushveld vistas, generous spaces and thoughtful design create an experience that is both refined and deeply connected to nature.
Seven spacious Riverbed Suites offer privacy and sweeping views across the Klaserie bushveld. Each has a private sun deck and heated plunge pool, perfect for relaxing between game drives. Contemporary interiors feature a king-sized bed, convertible to twins on request, air-conditioning, a ceiling fan, Wi-Fi, tea and coffee facilities, and indoor and outdoor showers. Ideal for couples, honeymooners, friends and families, the suites combine modern comfort with an immersive bush setting.
Located beneath the main lodge roof, this elegant interleadiing family suite offers seamless access to shared spaces whilst maintaining privacy and comfort. The suite features two inter-leading rooms with a king-sized bed, air-conditioning, tea and coffee station, and a spacious bathroom with luxurious amenities.
Guests have full access to all facilities, including the main swimming pool, gym area, and spacious gardens just a few steps from your door.
Within the lodge open-plan living and dining spaces extend onto wraparound decks and into expansive gardens. Between game drives guests can relax beside the pool or enjoy a drink at the outdoor bar. Gather around the boma fire as the galaxies of stars appear and the evening sounds of the bush replace the silence.
Solar energy, water-wise systems, locally sourced ingredients and area considered design reflect Simbavati Amani’s intentional approach to safari living.
The private nature of this wilderness sanctuary enables one to embrace the African bushveld in one’s own time. Situated on 3000 hectares in the heart of the Klaserie Private Nature Reserve within the Greater Kruger National Park, every experience is exclusively offering an intimate peek into nature at its rawest.
Recently renovated and refurbished, Simbavati Amani is a place where laidback luxury meets unfiltered nature. Nestled deep in a private part of the Greater Kruger, Amani offers sweeping bushveld views, peaceful seclusion, and an experience that’s as thoughtful as it is unforgettable.
At Simbavati Amani, luxury is more than a suite - it’s a feeling that flows through every part of the experience. The heart of the lodge features a spacious open-plan living and dining area, a peaceful spa and wellness zone, a fully equipped gym, and a sparkling pool that looks out over the surrounding bushveld. Guests are invited to unwind on wraparound decks, sip cocktails at the outdoor bar, or gather around the crackling boma fire beneath the stars.
In addition, for much of the year, guests can enjoy access to our second lodge area - a beautifully designed extension of the main camp featuring a heated pool, expansive sundeck, sunken boma, and its own relaxed lounge and dining space. This secluded setting offers even more space to unwind, soak up the sun, or celebrate special moments with loved ones.
Whether you're here to slow down, explore, connect, or celebrate - Amani’s generous spaces make it easy to do it all, surrounded by the stillness and soul of the African bush.
