Singita Sasakwa Lodge
Epitomising refined splendour and old-world luxury, the lodge allows guests a front-row seat to the prolific wildlife in the 350,000-acre private Singita Grumeti Reserve, ensuring an unparalleled African safari experience.
Singita Sasakwa Lodge is built in the style of a stately Edwardian manor house with nine private cottages, each with its own infinity pool. From the vantage point of Sasakwa Hill, panoramic views of the Serengeti plains merge with the horizon and provide a sense of immense space and freedom.
The spacious cottages offer expansive en-suite bathrooms, dressing areas, four-poster beds, fireplaces, living rooms and French doors opening onto welcoming verandas. Polished parquet floors, vintage collectables, Persian carpets and comfortable furnishings all add to Sasakwa’s unmistakable elegance, while contemporary interpretations of classic dishes underpin the culinary offerings in the grand dining room.
A grand entrance, wraparound verandas, silver candelabras and coveted antiques merge seamlessly with local artefacts and tribal cushions to create a quintessential luxury safari experience. Elegant lunches on the lawn, bespoke wine-paired dinners, leisure activities like tennis, bush walks and soothing spa treatments all add to the appeal.
Set alongside Singita Sasakwa Lodge is our new Hillside Suite:
Arriving at Hillside Suite feels like escaping to your own edge of the world, where infinite views over the Serengeti plains are par for the course. Allowing guests to bask in the barefoot beauty of a private villa for two, it’s set away from the main lodge and invites authentic encounters with nature, while every wish is tended to intuitively. All features are aimed at the utmost exclusivity and intimacy.
From stylish interiors with splashes of African art and contemporary design to frameless glass doors and windows capturing 210-degree views of the magnificent scenery, it’s the ultimate in understated luxury. Two extended wooden outdoor decks, a private rim-flow pool and a signature Singita ‘bar-deli’ filled with delicacies define the sheer comfort of stays at Hillside.
The butler-serviced suite includes a private game vehicle and Field Guide. Its free-flowing indoor and outdoor areas are ideal for exclusive dining in the most enchanting settings, and wellness experiences enveloped by nature – from yoga to in-room spa treatments and soothing couple’s massages on the pool deck.
Set within Singita’s 350,000-acre private reserve in northern Tanzania, Hillside Suite’s proximity to some of the most prized game-viewing on the continent – including the Great Migration – makes it the perfect location for a once-in-a-lifetime safari experience.
