Located in the Sabi Sands, Greater Kruger, Djuma is a Big Five reserve known for
exceptional wildlife sightings and open traversing with neighbouring reserves.
Shaped by conservation and natural movement, it offers an authentic safari
environment where the bush remains wild, unscripted, and alive.

Tumbeta House is Djuma’s most intimate place to stay, a private, self-catered safari home designed for guests who want space, flexibility, and a deeper connection to the bush. Set within the unfenced wilderness of the Sabi Sands Nature Reserve, Tumbeta House offers the rare freedom to experience Djuma at your
own pace. This is not a lodge stay. It is a house, quiet, contained, and deliberately small. Where the rhythms of the reserve shape each day.

Here, the focus is not on excess, but on immersion.

Staying at Tumbeta House means access to the same extraordinary wildlife that has made Djuma internationally renowned. This flexibility makes Tumbeta House particularly well suited to guests seeking a fully customised safari rather than a fixed itinerary, with private catering, hosting, or guiding services available by prior arrangement through trusted partners.

Designed for Privacy and Independence
Tumbeta House accommodates a maximum of six guests, making it ideal for families, close friends, or privately hosted groups.
The house features:
• Three en-suite bedrooms
• Open-plan living and dining spaces
• A fully equipped self-catering kitchen
• Private deck with views into the surrounding bushveld
• Outdoor areas designed for long, unhurried days
• Underground hide on eye level with Tumbeta House pan.
The design is simple, functional and intentional — allowing the bush to remain the main presence.

Djuma lies within the greater Sabi Sands, unfenced to the Kruger National Park. This allows wildlife to move
freely through the reserve.
Regular sightings include:
• Leopards
• Lions
• Elephants
• Buffalo
• Rhinoceros
• A rich variety of birdlife
