Sweni Lodge

An intimate riverine refuge

Sweni Luxury Lodge & Safari

Kruger National Park, South Africa

Riverine retreat

Tucked into the riverine forest, Sweni is an intimate retreat cocooned by leaves and overlooking the river. The constant soundtrack of running water, birds and hippos emphasises the flow of nature. Petitely proportioned, the lodge’s seven suites give it its feeling of exclusivity – offering a rare sense of escape and opportunity for personal connection.

Glamour and Subtle Sophistication

Seven suites are hidden among a canopy of trees, each featuring open-plan interiors.

A generously stocked minibar, two bathrooms and an outdoor shower overlooking the river – adding to the feeling of being enveloped by an ancient forest.

33,000 acres of pristine wilderness.

Guests have private access to 33,000 acres of pristine wilderness in the world-renowned Kruger National Park, ensuring unforgettable game-viewing experiences. With the lodge’s proximity to the river, guests are also treated to up-close sightings of numerous animals and birds frequenting the area to drink or wallow in the water.

Conservation in Partnership with Communities

Singita Lowveld Trust (SLT) is Singita’s non-profit conservation and community development partner in South Africa.

Our biodiversity projects focus on maintaining healthy, well-functioning ecosystems and habitats in the reserves in which Singita operates. These ecosystems are vital for the protection of a diverse range of wildlife, including species of conservation concern, such as rhinos, leopards, lions, wild dogs and vultures.

As we strive for the restoration and regeneration of our rich wilderness landscape, we can’t do this without the support and in collaboration of our communities. Together we're committed to ensuring that people living alongside wilderness areas not only benefit from tourism and conservation jobs but also experience lasting socio-economic growth.
