A feast for the soul – going with the flow at Sweni
in WholenessA feast for the soul – going with the flow at Sweni
Sweni’s location tucked into the riverbank among the trees in Singita Kruger National Park gives it its uniquely peaceful and secluded personality. Intimate, cosy and full of life, it’s an energising and simultaneously calming space that reflects the kaleidoscope of colour and life that envelops the lodge. Designed to celebrate its surrounds, the lodge’s spaces and suites merge with nature for an all-encompassing immersion into the bush.
Spaces inspired by nature
Inspired by the countless birds, plants, insects and other – that call this pocket of nature in the Kruger National Park home, Singita Sweni Lodge is a vibrant reflection of nature.
Designed to invite every aspect of this unique location into the lodge, from the gloss of a beetle shell, or the jewel toned flash of a bird’s wing, to the grounding tones of rock, bark and earth, the spaces feel warm and welcoming, and intricately connected to the wilderness around you. A celebration of the setting, that immediately inspires a deep breath out.
Walking in the wild
While at Sweni you’re always close to nature, venturing out on a bush walk is a way to get into the midst of why you're here in the first place – and to take in the remarkable beauty of the bush, the golden light, the scents and sounds all around you.
Singita's field guides and trackers are deeply in tune with their surroundings – many of our team members have grown up in or on the edges of the bush, while others have studied it passionately. Through their eyes and their knowledge, your experience of walking through the wilderness will leave a lasting impact and even greater reverence for the wild.
Full of colour and flavour
With multitudes of serene spaces to meditate, do a gentle yoga flow, read a book or simply appreciate the quiet, Sweni is a true retreat. A space to look outwards as well as in. A space in which to connect, reflect and from which to explore.
Wholesome food full of colour and flavour at every meal, evening fireside conversations that engage and delight, and early mornings bathed in golden light will leave you feeling fulfilled.
