Lukimbi Safari Lodge
| 
Overview
The lodge features carved plaster panels showing intricate mystical creatures and African patterns, in a subtle yet extremely decorative way. The main buildings are linked together with open wooden decks, making the most of the view, as the lodge meanders along the banks of the river Lwakahle.
The height of the lodge above the river provides viewing points with a feeling of safety. The raised walkways provide guests with cleave and easy access to their suites.
Bounded by 3 major river systems, the extensive 15 000 hectare area offers a diverse array of habitats. The vast grasslands dominate the northern portion, whereas the southern and central areas are more heavily wooded and interspersed with lush riverine thickets.
During daily walks, field guides will fascinate guests with information on the smaller reptiles and insects, which they might have missed on drives. Lukimbi is a bird lovers paradise.
Accommodation
Classic Suites
Lukimbi has 14 classic suites.
Guests walking into these suites are struck immediately by the sense of space. The room seems to stretch into the bush beyond, and the high windows bring the sky and the trees right into the room.
The lounge drops down from the level of the bedroom are and the space flows out to the covered deck, a comfortable area to sip a drink, watch the passing animals and birds and relax.
The bathroom is large and also looks directly onto the bush. Each suite has a spacious bath, indoor and outdoor shower and separate toilet. All have air-conditioning, fan, safe, gauze, mosquito nets, tea/coffee facilities and a mini bar.
**These rooms are large enough to share with young children.
Premier Suites
Lukimbi has two Premier Suites, the Giant Eagle Owl and King Cheetah Suite, which feature a separate bedroom, dining area, larger lounge, main bathroom and huge shareable bath, inside shower and outside shower, second bathroom and private pool with wooden deck.
The suites have air-conditioning, fan, safe, mosquito nets, mini bar and tea & coffee facilities. The decanter of sherry is complimentary.
