Dulini River Lodge oozes a sense of extravagance true to the long-standing safari tradition. Dulini means ‘sanctuary’ or ‘shelter’ and is an African word for a termite mound where termites hide from predators like aardvarks. It all started when the owners of Dulini Leadwood came upon an aardvark trying to get into a termite mound and they named their special place ‘place of the antbear’. So, today, Dulini is a special refuge for such wild animals as well as rare pangolins, warthogs, pythons and more.
At River Lodge, only six luxurious suites have been ingeniously elevated in a clean cut, ethnic architectural style to take in the inspiring views over the vital Sand River, to the savannah beyond. Each suite, set in a private riverine enclave, offers the luxury of a heated plunge pool and the lavish attention of a personal butler, thus enhancing the indulgence in the African ambience. Muted shades of blues, beiges, creams and browns complete the earthy aura of a lodge that takes nature conservation to heart.
Dulini River Lodge presents the drama of the bushveld and resident wildlife to all guests on game drives early in the mornings and evenings when the animals are at their most active. Expert game rangers and their diligent trackers show you where the animals hide out and why. Exclusive six-seater open air safari vehicles take you into the wilderness in a sensory explosion of education and pleasure.
