Situated only 3 hours drive from DBN and 4 hours from JHB, Nambiti Plains is the ideal place for a private and romantic getaway. The Nambiti Plains game Lodge is home to the Big Five and Cheetah as well as some awesome plains game and abundant bird life. The lodge has seven private luxury rooms and ample space in each room allows for all the special touches such as his/hers basins, a private deck,

indoor and outdoor showers etc. Five star rated meal times are a culinary dream with 3 course meals and plated service at an all time high. The lodge also does special boma dinners and bush breakfast with the beautiful Sundays River in the background. Truly an absolute place of leisure, relaxation and game viewing that is tough to match.

By request, we offer bush picnics for guests wanting something a little more private and personal during their stay.

Set out into the reserve and arrive at a beautifully prepared setting surrounded by nothing but open landscape and the sounds of the wild. It’s an easy, unhurried way to spend an afternoon together between game drives.

A favourite for honeymooners, anniversaries, or simply slowing things down for a while.

No two game drives are the same at Nambiti Plains🌿

One morning, you may encounter lions wandering down the road; the next, a special moment watching a herd of giraffe.
While the sightings may change, the high quality of our guides does not. Every drive is led with deep passion and insight into the wildlife and landscapes of Nambiti.

Days at Nambiti Plains can be wonderfully unpredictable.

One moment the pool deck is quiet, the next an elephant arrives for a drink stop of its own.

Sightings like these aren’t staged or unusual here - they’re simply a very special part of our day.

At Nambiti Plains, sustainability is found in the quieter details. 🌿

No formal gardens means less water usage, no fuel-powered garden maintenance, and more space for natural birdlife and insects to thrive as they should. The fig tree at the lodge was intentionally left standing — because nature should be worked around, not removed.

With only seven suites, the lodge was designed to leave a lighter footprint on the landscape while still offering an intimate safari experience.

Pathway lights are kept on timers, harsh fluorescent lighting is avoided, grey water is recycled back into the dams, and without fencing or raised walkways, wildlife is free to move naturally through the lodge surroundings.

This World Environment Day, we celebrate the beauty of protecting what already exists — and allowing the bush to remain beautifully wild. 🌍✨

Fresh, vibrant, and exactly what the afternoon calls for.

Our chicken salad is light enough for a warm day on the plains, yet satisfying after a morning out in the bush. Crisp greens, perfectly prepared chicken, and flavours that feel effortless come together on every plate.

Lunch at Nambiti Plains is never overcomplicated - just thoughtfully done.

Dinner at Nambiti Plains unfolds at its own pace, with each course prepared with care and served without hurry.

The tables are quiet, the setting is relaxed, and the day gives way gently to night.

It’s less about occasion and more about how it feels to be here.
Uncomplicated, considered, and easy to enjoy.
