Singita Sasakwa Lodge

Representing the pinnacle of refined elegance and classic luxury, Singita Sasakwa Lodge offers guests an unparalleled view of the abundant wildlife in the 350,000-acre private Singita Grumeti Reserve, providing a truly extraordinary African safari experience.

The lodge is designed to resemble a grand Edwardian manor, with nine private cottages, each featuring its own infinity pool. Situated atop Sasakwa Hill, the lodge offers sweeping panoramic views of the Serengeti plains, creating an overwhelming sense of openness and freedom as the land stretches into the horizon.

Each spacious cottage boasts large en-suite bathrooms, dressing areas, four-poster beds, fireplaces, living rooms, and French doors that lead out to private verandas. The elegant interiors include polished parquet floors, vintage collectibles, Persian carpets, and comfortable furnishings, enhancing Sasakwa’s unmistakable charm. The dining room offers contemporary takes on classic dishes, elevating the culinary experience.

A striking entrance, expansive verandas, silver candelabras, and prized antiques blend seamlessly with local artifacts and tribal cushions, embodying the essence of a luxurious safari. Guests can enjoy elegant lunches on the lawn, bespoke wine-paired dinners, and a variety of activities such as tennis, bush walks, and rejuvenating spa treatments.

Hillside Suite

Nestled alongside Singita Sasakwa Lodge, the new Hillside Suite offers an experience like no other. Seemingly perched at the edge of the world, it provides sweeping, uninterrupted views of the Serengeti plains. Perfect for a romantic getaway, the private villa for two is set away from the main lodge, offering an immersive connection with nature while ensuring every need is met with intuitive service. Designed for maximum intimacy and exclusivity, the suite offers unparalleled comfort and luxury.

With its stylish interiors, featuring vibrant African art and contemporary design, the suite includes frameless glass doors and windows that frame stunning 210-degree views of the surrounding landscape. The space is complemented by two spacious wooden outdoor decks, a private rim-flow pool, and a Singita ‘bar-deli’ stocked with delicious treats, providing ultimate relaxation and convenience.

The butler-serviced suite includes a private game vehicle and Field Guide, making it the ideal place for exclusive safaris. Its seamless indoor-outdoor flow is perfect for private dining and wellness experiences, such as yoga, in-room spa treatments, or couples’ massages on the pool deck.

Located within Singita’s vast 350,000-acre private reserve in northern Tanzania, Hillside Suite is ideally situated for exceptional game viewing, including the Great Migration, making it the perfect destination for a once-in-a-lifetime safari adventure.
