Owner-run
Leopard Hills runs eight glass-fronted suites, each with a private deck, plunge pool and king bed, at R26,300 per person sharing in 2026 and R28,400 in 2027, one flat rate all year, VAT included. Two daily drives, optional walking safaris and most beverages are included; premium wines and a Guest Conservation Levy are excluded, though the site never states the levy's amount. Leopard Hills describes itself as sitting within the reserve's overall 65,000 hectares, which is the whole of Sabi Sand rather than its own traversing block, so no lodge-specific traversing figure is published here.
Why you'd pick it
- 8 glass-fronted suites, each with its own plunge pool and king bed
- Names a Guest Conservation Levy as excluded without stating an amount
- Its own site cites the reserve's total 65,000 hectares rather than a lodge-specific traversing figure
Rates
From R26,300 pppn (2026). R26,300 per person sharing in 2026, R28,400 in 2027, one flat rate each year with no seasonal bands. Inclusive of 15% VAT. Converted at 1 USD = 17.6 ZAR on 16 September 2026: about $1,494 (2026) and $1,614 (2027). Leopard Hills names a Guest Conservation Levy as excluded from the rate but does not state an amount; based on its own room rate, that likely falls in the reserve's Tier 2 band (about R574 per person per night in 2026), but confirm the exact figure with the lodge.
What the rate covers is not confirmed. We do not know yet whether meals, drinks and activities are included, so read this as the bed only.
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.
