Inside Lion Sands

The Lion Sands Game Reserve has been named one of the best resorts and safari camps in Africa by Condé Nast Traveler's readers, and it's easy to see why. The luxe villas at its Ivory Lodge have private viewing decks (with plunge pools), which afford beautiful views of the Sabie River and Kruger National Park.
