Inyati is one of the more transparent lodges on fees in the west-central sector: R16,500 per person sharing in 2026, R18,500 in 2027, VAT included, and its own Guest Conservation Contribution stated plainly at R310.13 per person per night, capped at three nights regardless of stay length and invoiced separately from the room rate. Eleven air-conditioned chalets, three of them family units, come with two daily drives, walking safaris and a house drinks selection. Inyati does not publish a traversing figure of its own.

Every figure on this page is in US dollars.
Rates and fees come from each lodge's own website, read 16 September 2026, cross-checked against the Sabi Sand Wildtuin's own published Guest Conservation Contribution and access fees at sabisand.co.za (the landowners' association, spelled without an 's') and against a reserve overview compiled the same day. Two booking-agent microsites, sabisands.com and sabisands.co.za (both spelled with an 's', unrelated to the association), were checked for cross-reference only and are not used as a source for any rate or levy figure. Ulusaba's own site quotes no nightly rate for its three lodges, so those are recorded as rates on request. Sabi Sabi and MalaMala are not on the Sabi Sand Wildtuin's own lodge list, and neither states whether the reserve's own conservation contribution applies to a stay there; both maintain their own separate levy or none at all, as noted lodge by lodge.
