Vuyatela Self-Catering Lodge, Sabi Sands

Vuyatela Lodge is a small five-roomed camp in the heart of the northern sector of the Sabi Sands. The lodge is unique in that the furnishings and artwork reflect modern Africa with lovely bright mosaic stone artwork and local contemporary pieces. The main lodge area is extremely spacious and guests have a typical safari experience watching wildlife in and around the dam in front of the lodge. In addition there is a lofty tower just off the main deck which provides stunning views and photographic opportunities. The rooms are also supremely spacious. There is a small separate living room with a couch, basic kitchenette and a desk. Each bedroom has its own small plunge pool on a large deck. The outdoor shower is fantastic and the bathrooms are well furnished. The furnishings are of a bright modern African theme. The staff are friendly and the service is commendable. The lodge is self-catering, with an expert chef on standby to help guests prepare meals if they wish.
