Lion Sands Game Reserve invites you to reconnect with nature in the most enchanting way possible—spending a night in one of their luxurious treehouses. Nestled in the heart of the Sabi Sand Nature Reserve and Kruger National Park, these elevated bush bedrooms offer solitude, romance, and adventure, creating memories that will last a lifetime.The Treehouse Experience is an optional extra, booked alongside your Lion Sands lodge accommodation.

From your treetop sanctuary, watch wildlife roam undisturbed below. By day, you might glimpse antelope grazing or birds flitting by; by night, the haunting calls of hyenas or distant growls of lions will lull you to sleep. Each evening, indulge in a gourmet picnic lit by lanterns and the soft glow of the stars. A basket filled with tapas-style treats, chilled drinks, and optional Champagne makes for a perfectly romantic or celebratory dinner experience. Rest assured, your treehouse has been carefully constructed for safety and comfort. Elevated well above ground, it offers an excellent vantage point while keeping you secure from wildlife.
A stay-over bag is all you’ll need, as your main room at the lodge remains available for your return.
