Arathusa Safari Lodge is unique and highly sought-after by visitors because of its prime location within the northern Sabi Sand Reserve, very close to the unfenced Kruger National Park. Together, these two areas comprise one of South Africa’s most incredible and pristinely preserved wilderness sanctuaries.
Arathusa offers an exceptional safari experience – expect a high concentration of a wide variety of game, including the Big Five, and frequent leopard sightings (Arathusa is known for the calibre of its leopard viewing).
There are twelve Luxury Suites, eight of which face the waterhole in front of the lodge, and four of which are remotely located within the bush a short distance from the lodge.
Arathusa’s is an intimate environment… its open-plan design and natural décor mean that it blends seamlessly with the African bush surroundings. The lodge's living spaces – including indoor & outdoor lounge and dining area, and swimming pool – overlook the signature waterhole. One need not leave the lodge to be on safari here!
Arathusa's Safari Spa offers guests a luxurious spa experience with a range of treatments and natural spa products. Couples treatments are available too.

With its doors opening onto historic Church Street, Oude Werf sits at the centre of Stellenbosch, surrounded by restaurants, cafés, galleries and local culture. There is a gentle sense of charm here, shaped by its long connection to Stellenbosch and its position within the rhythm of the town.
Its relaxed atmosphere creates a sense of familiarity that makes the hotel feel settled within its surroundings rather than removed from them. Outside, Stellenbosch brings its lively mix of food, wine, culture and conversation; inside, there is space to slow down and settle into the day. The hotel’s spaces reflect this balance, from the shaded courtyard and swimming pool to the lounge and garden areas that invite you to spend time at your own pace.
Oude Werf reflects the character of Stellenbosch without trying to replicate it — a place with its own sense of warmth and ease, closely connected to the town around it.
