Sabi Sabi Earth Lodge is a luxurious and unique safari lodge set within the Sabi Sand Game Reserve. The lodge is sculpted into a slope of the earth, designed to be almost invisible until you are at the entrance and blend into the surroundings.
Each of the lodge’s 13 ultra-luxurious and spacious suites offers stylish interiors, private plunge pools, glass-fronted bathrooms, and stunning views of the bush. The decor combines natural materials and contemporary design, using neutral tones and textures of stone, wood, and metal to create an earthy and elegant space.
Earth Lodge is known for its outstanding service, world-class cuisine, and immersive wildlife experiences. Attention to detail and personal preferences ensure impeccable service throughout your stay. Dining at Earth Lodge is a contemporary take on local flavours and ingredients, with a la carte lunches and fine-dining dinners. The lodge also features the Amani Spa, a small gym, a meditation garden, an underground wine cellar, and a gallery that showcases local art.
Game drives are led by experienced rangers and trackers, and the density of wildlife within Sabi Sabi Game Reserve provides plenty of opportunities to see the Big Five and the area is known for particularly good Big Cat sightings.
At Love To Explore, we would recommend the lodge for these unique selling points:
- Excellent service & expert guides
- Ultimate luxury
- Big 5 private game reserve

FAQs
Why book a tailor-made holiday with a luxury travel specialist?
The best trips feel effortless, but behind every seamless journey is thoughtful planning and genuine expertise. A luxury travel specialist brings first-hand destination knowledge, trusted recommendations and personalised service to every itinerary, ensuring your holiday is shaped around you. From choosing the finest hotels and experiences to managing all the finer details, tailor-made travel allows you to make the most of your time away without the stress of organising it yourself.
What types of holidays do you specialise in?
Love To Explore specialises in thoughtfully crafted journeys designed entirely around each individual traveller. From slow, sun-drenched escapes on idyllic Indian Ocean islands to immersive, adventure-led safaris through the African wilderness, every trip is shaped by personal style and pace. While Africa and the Indian Ocean remain at the heart of what we do, our trusted network of local experts allows us to extend far beyond, opening the door to extraordinary destinations across the globe.
How far in advance should I book a holiday?
There is no single rule when it comes to booking your next escape, as every journey is completely bespoke. Whether you’re planning a special milestone trip years in advance or seeking a spontaneous last-minute escape, we can help shape it at any stage. That said, for the best choice of boutique lodges and the most sought-after properties, we recommend beginning the planning process around nine months to a year ahead, allowing the widest possible access to availability and experiences. For certain safari lodges and iconic seasonal moments, such as Japan’s cherry blossom season, we would advise planning up to two years in advance.
