About This Property

Leopard Hills Private Game Reserve occupies a prime hilltop position in the Sabi Sand Game Reserve — and the views are among the best in the Lowveld. Eight glass-fronted suites look out across an unbroken expanse of African bushveld, with a waterhole directly below that attracts a constant parade of wildlife.

Each suite features a private heated plunge pool, outdoor shower, indoor fireplace, and a glass wall that slides away to merge the bedroom with the bush. The main lodge area is equally impressive: an infinity pool that appears to drop into the valley, a wine cellar, and multiple dining venues.

The reserve's name gives away its speciality — leopard sightings here are extraordinary. The Sabi Sand's relaxed leopard population, combined with Leopard Hills' experienced trackers, means you'll have some of the best cat encounters in Africa.

Why We Love It

The hilltop position at Leopard Hills means every single suite has a waterhole view — you can watch elephants drinking from your plunge pool. The glass-walled suites that open completely to the bush blur the line between indoors and outdoors in the most thrilling way. And yes, the leopard sightings live up to the name.

Good to Know
