Is the Simbavati Hilltop Lodge for Me?

Situated on a hillside in the Timbavati Private Nature Reserve, Simbavati Hilltop Lodge boasts scenic views over the bushveld, with the Drakensberg Mountains rising in the distance and the Mbali Dam and Nhlaralumi River below. This elevated setting offers dramatic scenery and attracts a steady flow of wildlife, from elephants and buffalo to an abundance of birdlife.

The lodge features eight tented suites, spaced for privacy and panoramic outlooks. Each suite includes a private deck and plunge pool, offering a quiet retreat between activities. Days are shaped by game drives through the Greater Kruger, where sightings of leopards, lions, wild dogs, and other species are common.

Evenings unfold with sundowners, relaxed dinners, and the gentle sounds of the bush. The lodge also offers serene spaces for rest, with curated interiors and attentive service throughout. Simbavati Hilltop Lodge is well suited to couples and nature lovers looking for a peaceful, elevated safari experience in one of South Africa’s most diverse wildlife areas.
