Umkumbe Bush Lodge - Sabi Sands Game Reserve
Umkumbe Bush Lodge is the first luxury tented camp in the Sabi Sands Game Reserve, the Glamping experience offers guests the opportunity to experience an authentic yet luxurious accommodation in the heart of the Sabi Sands Game Reserve at an affordable price. Our guests deserve only the best and therefore we designed luxury safari-styled tented chalets to offer just that.
Our tented chalets offer crisp white linen, designer decor, complimentary items, neat bathrooms including a private outside shower in our tented suite, and air conditioning in order to make your stay extra comfortable. Sleep safely in a bushveld environment among the wildlife right underneath the stars. Listen to the roar of lions in the middle of the night and the chirping of the birds in the early mornings.
Our standard tents consist of a king-size bed that can be converted into 2 single beds. Including an aircon, ensuite bathroom with shower, and a private deck. Our standard tents are named Apple-leaf, Jackalberry, Tamboti, and Marula - all named after the indigenous trees in the area. Leadwood is our luxury suite tent, this spacious tent is what we will be expanding to with all our tents in the future and includes an ensuite sitting area and bathroom with his and hers, bathtub, and outdoor shower. This tent is ideal for honeymooners and is spacious enough to be converted into a family unit.

This was our third lodge to visit during our holiday, we loved the simple accommodation and the luxury amenities provided available. We stayed in the luxury tent and my family loved it as it's air-conditioned and it had an outdoor shower. There are 2 safari drives every day and our ranger really went above and beyond to find us all the animals we asked for 🙂 We took amazing photos and we had monkeys near our tent, they are amazing creatures.
