Sabi Sabi Earth Lodge

The renowned Amber Suite has been transformed into a stunning private Villa, tucked at the edge of Earth Lodge in the heart of the bushveld. One of the largest in the Sabi Sabi collection, the spacious 240m2 villa with two bedrooms and two bathrooms is perfect for families and friends, comfortably accommodating four guests, with a fifth able to be hosted upon request.

The unveiling of the Amber Villa marks the final phase of renovation of the Earth Lodge suites. Drawing inspiration from the luxury suites, Sabi Sabi was delighted to work once again with Dakota Designs, to curate each and every detail to reflect the bush environment.

The living area is designed for complete relaxation, with bespoke decorative pieces including the daybed which may be easily converted into an additional single bed, accommodating more family members.

Large windows and doors flood the room with light and encourage free movement out to the terrace lounge. Here, timber fans gently rotate above oversized couches and leather hanging sling chairs for a shaded retreat. A shimmering plunge pool is refreshing for guests – and on occasion wildlife.

In the main bedroom suite, with its iconic, original carved Matumi headboard, the bed has been positioned to capture the very best bush views in the utmost comfort. A lounge nook and dressing table sit adjacent to a generous dressing room, which leads to a small, private fitness area with treadmill, light weights and spinning bike.

Flow from the bedroom into the master en-suite, with a freestanding bath and double shower with walls cladded in earthy hues and copper accents.

The second bedroom with twin beds comfortably accommodates two people and includes a dressing and vanity area, as well as direct access to the outdoor lounge. An adjacent second bathroom is fitted with Kiaat timber vanities and polished stone basins beautifully contrast against the textured walls.

Guests staying in the Amber Villa will also enjoy their own private game vehicle, with ranger and tracker team – this allows for safari adventures to be tailored to their preferences and interests to enjoy lifetime encounters with some of the world’s richest diversity of habitat and wildlife.

Earth Lodge welcomes guests 13 years and older.
