Nambiti’s Hidden Lodge

Opening in early 2024, The Homestead is an intimate eco-conscious ultra-luxury lodge located on the Nambiti Private Game Reserve in South Africa.

Set to burst onto South Africa’s safari scene in a few months, The Homestead is a exciting new boutique wilderness retreat. However, forget images of drab bush interiors and thatch roofs – this is an unapologetically modern retreat, hewn from local iron stone and centred around a stunning elevated main lodge building, home to an infinity pool, restaurant, and bar, and topped with a tranquil garden.

While the interiors are contemporary and captivating, the lodge’s profile (including rooves planted with indigenous savannah grasses) is subdued to allow it to nestle seamlessly into its stunning environment, which remains one of South Africa’s most acclaimed wildlife reserves. Steeped in history and bristling with technology, this new safari lodge will get you closer to the big five, with the chance to spot over 50 protected mammal species and over 300 bird species.
