Chitwa House is a two-bedroom private house offering an exclusive safari for a family or group of friends in the private Sabi Sands Game Reserve. Bordering South Africa's famous Kruger National Park, the Sabi Sands is highly acclaimed for its excellent game viewing, and some of the best opportunities to meet Africa's Big 5 - buffalo, elephant, rhino, leopard and lion.
Chitwa House was built in response to the growing demand for greater privacy and exclusive hospitality. Here you can tailor your safari and dining experience with your experienced house butler, chef and dedicated safari ranger and tracker. The house consists of two beautifully appointed en-suite rooms with outdoor showers and private decks. The shared areas include a lounge and dining area and a deck with swimming pool. Nearby in the main lodge you will also find a library, boutique, gym and spa.
