Untamed. Untouched. Unforgettable. That is Sanbona Wildlife Reserve – the Western Cape’s premier wildlife destination and a sanctuary for indigenous flora and fauna.
Surrounded by the open plains and rolling mountains of the Klein Karoo, just a three-hour drive from Cape Town, Sanbona boasts three 5-star luxury lodges and promises an exhilarating safari wilderness experience.
Great news: the wildlife reserve will be running a deal, exclusive to South African Residents, on its Tilney Manor accommodation for the month of August after the current Dwyka Tented Lodge accommodation special ends on 31 July.
Breathtaking views of the undulating Kleinberg mountain range and landscape embrace the historic Tilney Manor in a refuge of peace and tranquillity.
An idyllic destination for those seeking to immerse themselves in an exclusive Karoo experience steeped in natural beauty, a rich history and a side of serenity.

The flat-roofed Cape Georgian-style manor offers six spacious open-plan suites leading onto private verandas.

Guests can expect to experience authentic Karoo cuisine, luxurious lounges and a rim flow pool to soak in undiluted vistas.

All your meals are catered for during your stay. From breakfast to dinner, the menu style changes up, offering guests a chance to experience a little of everything. From wraps to boma dinners – there’s some tradition mixed with familiar favourites.

Indulge your senses at the Relaxation Retreat, which boasts a steam room and sauna, while witnessing a pure spectacle – a Karoo sunset.

Boasting world-class treatments and holistic modalities to balance and energise your being through various scrubs and massages, each Relaxation Retreat across all lodges have two therapy rooms.
Step into privacy, luxury and comfort within the natural landscapes of the reserve as the gentle atmosphere of the rejuvenating forces of nature embraces you.
