Sashwa - River of Stars

This was so much more than a luxury bushveld lodge. Our stay was a profoundly moving experience, where every effort was made to create an environment of tranquility and deep inner peace, at one with nature.

I cannot put into words how amazing our time at Sashwa was, an incredible all rounded experience with amazing people. One of the most gorgeous places I have ever stayed! I don’t think I’ll ever get over the view looking out over the river, with so many animal sightings right outside your room!

Everything I wished for and more. Your staff are world class in every section of the retreat, from the kitchen with the three course mouthwatering pieces of art served three times a day to the therapists in the spa, meditation, and game drive. It was incredible to experience this in a lodge in the “bush”, this level of excellence is not even available at exclusive venues in our towns and cities.

So much thought and care has gone into making Sashwa what it is. We felt nourished, nurtured and inspired. The vegan food was absolutely delicious. Practicing yoga right on the banks of the Olifants River was a dream come true. The peace and quiet within the camp was an absolute privilege. I highly recommend this special African experience.

If you want to escape to gentle serenity and luxury comforts, Sashwa River of Stars ticks all the boxes. Genuinely friendly staff, excellent service, delicious plant based meals, fascinating bush walks and game drives, and excellent yoga and meditation options. Top of my list for a soul safari. I’d recommend it without hesitation.
