Sweni Lodge Overview

Singita Sweni Lodge – currently being reinvented. Reopening end June 2017.
 
Resting lightly upon the ground within a 33,000 acre, private concession in the Kruger National Park, Singita Sweni Lodge is nestled beautifully amongst hundreds of trees at the edge of the Sweni River. In this tranquil, intimate hideaway, the decks of the lodge seem to hover in the branches, while inside, rich calming colours and textures echo the hues of the natural surroundings. With its proximity to the river, guests at Singita Sweni Lodge are treated to up-close sightings of the incredible number of animals and birds that wander down to drink or wallow in the river.

Sweni Lodge Rooms

An intimate hideaway hosting 6 suites; with decks that seem to hover in the branches and interiors that echo the hues of the natural surroundings.
 
Idyllic proximity to the river offers up-close bird watching and unhindered sightings of the incredible number of animals that wander down to drink or wallow in the water. Dressed in earthy chocolate and calming pistachio shades that echo the deep, dark hues of the riverine forest, the suites are svelte wood and glass boxes designed to float above the river.
 
Each tree house is connected to the other via elevated wooden walkways that are nestled in the branches of the surrounding trees. Living spaces are conducive to open-air living with floor-to-ceiling glass walls, timber decks for private dining and a magical outdoor shower and star bed for intimate ‘camp-outs’.
