Ulusaba Private Game Reserve is Sir Richard Branson's safari lodge located in the Western sector of the Sabi Sand Private Game Reserve. Guests can taste the spoils of Africa in peace and tranquility and book individual rooms, or exclusively hire individual lodges or the hotel as a whole - ideal for weddings and celebrations.

Ulusaba, meaning "Place of Little Fear" strikes the perfect balance between nature and nurture - as well as being an excellent place to observe the "Big Five", it is also an ideal place to kick back and unwind. Ulusaba re-defines the rules of a safari lodge and taken a step away from the traditional colonial style by offering swimming pools, gymnasiums, a wine cellar, boma spas (with panoramic views) and tennis courts. With all of these facilities, you'll need to plan your days so you can enjoy safari walks, moon-lit bush dinners and of course, the twice daily game drives.

Guests can share their time between the two lodges - "Rock Lodge" and "Safari Lodge" which offer two unique experiences to your holiday as many guests choose to split their time between the two. "Rock Lodge" is perched high on the summit of a koppie and provides panoramic views over miles of bush, the wildlife roaming within, and the beauty of the lowveld below. "Safari Lodge" is built along the banks of the dry Mabrak riverbed, where guests will love the sense of adventure as they cross the swing bridges between exquisite "tree house" rooms while elephants, bushbuck, lion and other local wildlife pass by. Children of any age are welcome at the Rock Lodge, but must be 12 or above to stay at the Safari Lodge. Younger members of the family can visit the Cub's Club, which runs a fun filled daily programme of activities aiming to both entertain and educate.

With unique sights, sounds and smells of Africa on your doorstep in the kind of style and luxury you'd expect from a five star boutique hotel, Ulusaba is perfect place for all age groups and for any occasion to experience a safari. Ulusaba Private Game Reserve has come up with some truly spectacular wedding packages for an intimate elopement in the bush or a ceremony with your loved ones that they will be talking about forever! We have lots of exciting extras available on request including a spectacular helicopter flight through the Blyde River Canyon to take in God's Window, followed by a wedding ceremony on The Pinnacle, a place of breathtaking beauty high above the world!
