Lukimbi is a stunning luxury lodge situated in the easily accessible southern portion of the Kruger National Park, South Africa. Kruger is home to the Big Five and a wide variety of other animals and birds, which roam freely in their natural habitat.
Game drives, with informative Rangers, are done on our private roads in open Landrovers. Alternatively, guests can take guided walks or relax in the magnificent lodge, it all happens on over 37,000 (15,000 hectares) of exclusive use prime game and wilderness area.
14 spacious suites combine luxury and modern African decor with private decks and river views. Our Giant Eagle Owl and King Cheetah suites each include a private pool and second bathroom.
AT A GLANCE
The lodge features carved plaster panels showing intricate mystical creatures and African patterns, in a subtle yet extremely decorative way. The main buildings are linked together with open wooden decks, making the most of the view, as the lodge meanders along the banks of the river Lwakahle.
The designer interior combines colours and specially created pieces artistically and imaginatively. There is something different and interesting to look at round every corner. Lukimbi is a photographers’ delight, both inside the surrounds of the lodge and out in the beckoning bush.
The height of the lodge above the river provides viewing points with a feeling of safety. The raised walkways provide guests with clear and easy access to their suites.
Accommodation: - Raised walkways lead guests to 16 spacious suites, all combining luxury and modern African decor with stunning river views.
The ultra luxurious Giant Eagle Owl Suite and King Cheetah Suite also have a private pool, diningroom and second bathroom.
All suites are air-conditioned, have fans, safes, mini bars, as well as tea and coffee facilities. Private decks leading out towards the river provide the ideal place to relax or enjoy bird spotting and game viewing in peace and tranquility.
Activities: -
Wine Tasting
Lukimbi is proud to serve South African wines and wine tasting is held most evenings before dinner. This gives guests the chance to sample before choosing the wines offered, or alternatively, visiting the cellar and choosing one of the many estate wines available.
Swazi Theme evenings
During the summer, Lukimbi has special Swazi evenings. Guests are able to choose from a selection of clothes to be loaned for that evening. Some history and information on the Swazi people is told to guests and of course, the staff join in the fun.
