Singita Ebony Lodge

Singita Ebony Lodge comprises 12 suites, each with its own private plunge pool. Interiors feature curated still-life collections of antiques and artefacts, as well as vintage campaign furniture from the Bailes’ Family collection. Materials like wood, iron, steel and aged bronze hark back to the 19th century, along with oversized sepia photography, glamorous leopard and zebra print upholstery that complements bold graphic tribal patterned murals. Internal and external walls have been replaced by canvas and glass to create safari tent-style suites to maximize views and space. The entire front wall of each suite between the bedroom and the veranda is made of glass allowing light to flood in. Outdoor pavilion decks are suspended above the river banks as if hanging from the trees. A beautiful marble and cast iron table is the furniture centerpiece for this concept – it is a traveler’s desk with smart tools, a private dining room table for entertaining or a bar to enjoy an evening gin & tonic in one.

• 6 x River-facing suites ideal for single guests and couples traveling together.
• 2 x Bush Suites ideal for single guests and couples traveling together.
