Hotel

On arrival at Kruger Mpumalanga Airport you are met by a representative from Sable Tours who transfers you to the Sabi Sands Game Reserve and to Elephant Plains Game Lodge where you stay in the Honeymoon Suite for the next three nights.
This family owned lodge accommodates a maximum of 24 guests, which ensures personal
service and a warm, friendly atmosphere. The lodge is situated on the dry Manyeleti riverbed and overlooks a permanent waterhole. The pool deck guarantees an excellent view of a variety of animals, coming from the plains to drink. Elephant Plains is situated in the 65, 000 hectare
Sabi Sand Wildtuin, which forms part of the Greater Kruger National Park, a huge 2.2 million hectare park, where animals roam
freely with no fences.
The Sabi Sand Wildtuin was set up
in the 1950's by a group of private
landowners who dropped the fences between their properties in order to create a larger area for the animals to move around in. The reserve is named after its two main
rivers, the Sabi and Sand Rivers, which both flow to the south of Elephant Plains.
The property of Elephant Plains has been in the family since 1962, but has only been run as a commercial lodge since 1998. It is
owned by Dr. Etienne and Margie Swart (Witpoort Familie Trust), and managed by their son and his wife, Etienne & Marlet.
