Spacious Suites with Private Pools

Each suite at Imbali Safari Lodge is air-conditioned and decorated in neutral colors. You get a large deck with your own private plunge pool, plus two wingback chairs, tea-and-coffee-making facilities, and a full private bathroom. The rooms include high-speed Wi-Fi, a smart TV, a Nespresso machine, and keyless entry.

Gourmet Dining Overlooking Waterhole

All meals and local beverages are included in the rate. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are served in the dining room or on the open-air deck, which overlooks a busy waterhole where elephants, zebras, and other animals come to drink. The menu is a la carte with three courses for dinner, plus a buffet spread and egg service for breakfast.

Twice-Daily Safaris & Spa

Two game drives per day in an open safari vehicle are included. Morning drives start at 5 AM with coffee and rusks; afternoon drives include sundowners with beer, wine, or whisky. The lodge also offers an outdoor swimming pool, a spa and wellness center with full body massages, couples massages, foot and head massages, and an infrared sauna. Sun loungers and beach chairs are provided.

80 km from Skukuza Airport

Imbali Safari Lodge is located in a private concession within Kruger National Park. Skukuza Airport is 80 km away, and Hoedspruit Airport is 120 km away. An airport shuttle is available. The lodge is surrounded by the dry riverbed with a watering hole that draws wildlife, and it's a 5-minute walk from the main lounge area to the dining deck.

Daily Housekeeping & Luggage Storage

The lodge provides daily housekeeping, ironing service, laundry, and luggage storage. It also offers packed lunches for game drives, 24-hour security with key access, and safety deposit boxes. There is no room service, but the staff can arrange private check-in/check-out and accessible parking.

“The intimate setting is immediately apparent, with lodge suites that blend spacious comfort with private plunge pools, overlooking a natural watering hole that actively draws wildlife. Superb guiding is a consistent highlight, with rangers demonstrating deep knowledge that significantly enriches game drives, leading to remarkable animal encounters. Excellent food and attentive staff round out the experience, making for a genuinely enriching safari.”
