A lavish tented lodge is currently being developed and will soon be opening up in the Thornybush Nature Reserve, located in the greater Kruger National Park area.
The new five-star establishment, which will be named Saseka Tented Camp and is part of the Thorny Bush Collection, will open at the end of the first quarter of 2019. Known for its high-end service and attention to detail, the Thorny Bush Collection offers guests a premiere safari experience.
Saseka Tented Camp will be located on the banks of the Monwana riverbed in the north-eastern portion of the nature reserve.

The establishment will offer eight luxurious tented rooms constructed with solid stacking glass spanning the length of the tent, giving guests a clear view of the game in the reserve.
Each tent is home to a private wooden deck, an outdoor shower and splash pool. Guests can look forward to a fully equipped tent with a mini-bar, air conditioner, Wi-Fi, mosquito net, and more.
To add to the decadence of this experience, an on-call butler is available to all guests.
An in-house dining area will feature in the lodge, with upper- and lower-deck seating.
The Leadwood Villa in the lodge will be available for families or larger groups, accommodating four adults and two children and with a lounge, dining area, private deck, and splash pool.
Saskea Tented Camp lodge offers dawn and dusk safaris with professional field guides and trackers to ensure that visitors have a rich and fruitful game-watching experience.
A gift and curio shop will be in the main area, ideal for finding the perfect memorabilia to remind guests of their stay.
