Jabulani Safari Lodge
Hoedspruit, South Africa
About the hotel
"A posh safari lodge with a classically luxurious appeal, Jabulani features gorgeous lodgings, memorable dining and an extraordinary array of experiential opportunities."
Jabulani draws its inspiration from the aesthetic of classic safari lodges, coupled with a fresh contemporary edge that brings it squarely into the 21st-century. Beneath thatched roofs, the walls are made of pressed grass and the floors are crafted from stone; a blend of natural materials and textures that gives the spaces an earthy one-with-the-wild feel.

Jabulani draws its inspiration from the aesthetic of classic safari lodges, coupled with a fresh contemporary edge that brings it squarely into the 21st-century. Beneath thatched roofs, the walls are made of pressed grass and the floors are crafted from stone; a blend of natural materials and textures that gives the spaces an earthy one-with-the-wild feel. The rustic element created by the use of natural materials stands in pleasant contrast with the sophistication of the interior furnishings. Rich leather armchairs, sumptuous four poster beds and high-quality artworks lend a timeless quality to the interior atmosphere. For the most exceptional of occasions, book the Zindoga Villa: a private, three-bedroom affair that comes with perks like a traditional fireplace and private plunge pool alongside a dedicated team of personnel that includes a private chef, ranger and butler.
Dining at the lodge is an experience unto itself, and each day a unique menu is crafted by the chef using seasonal ingredients. Memorable meal times can take the form of picnics, sundowner canapés and bush breakfasts, and the food itself is artfully crafted and beautifully presented.
Naturally, it’s the experiences at Jabulani (and those that take place within the surrounding natural world) that are the most enticing aspect of the lodge. And the laundry list of offerings is impressive, with something for absolutely everyone. Elephants take centre stage at Jabulani, and a myriad of elephant experiences range from in-person interactions on land to swimming with them to tracking them under the supervision of a talented ranger. Guests can also experience game drives, spot the big five, go birdwatching or embark on a walking safari. And after a day full of adventure, the blissful, romantic spa is a rejuvenating place to unwind and re-invigorate before doing it all over again.
