Overlooking a much visited waterhole within a sycamore grove on the private Manyeleti reserve concession (adjacent to Kruger) you'll find Tintswalo Safari Lodge. There are six lavish suites designed to reflect the region's pioneering past but the king of this pride has to be the presidential suite which can be booked exclusively. Lucky guests can enjoy the privacy of two air-conditioned bedrooms (with plunge pool deck) – connected by a spacious lounge, dining and open-plan kitchen. Popular with groups of friends and families, its other major appeal is exclusive use of a private tracker, ranger and vehicle, personal chef and butler. Guests won't feel totally secluded in the wild - as they are connected to the main lodge (with Spa) by a raised walkway. Need more space? The equally exquisite Manor House nearby accommodates 10 guests and is fenced, making it ideal for small children.
