Singita Sasakwa Lodge: The Utmost In Luxury And Exclusivity In The Serengeti

A 340 000 acre private concession in the west of the Serengeti National Park awaits you when staying at the magnificent Singita Sasakwa Lodge; only three Singita lodges (52 odd guests across the three lodges) share this private concession which pretty much means this stretch of Africa is yours to explore in total and under privacy.

Singita Sasakwa Lodge is perched on top of a hill with views that literally go on for miles and miles out over the surrounding Singita Grumeti Reserve and the Serengeti National Park, plains that are teaming with birdlife and wildlife year-round.

A sense of grandeur with a blend of authentic European style and East African influences, all within a turn-of-the-century manor house and her to-die-for private cottages.

If you are looking for privacy, luxury and, of course, the famed wildlife of the Serengeti - then you have found that perfect destination at which to enjoy the greatest natural spectacle on earth.
