Host Your Retreat at Sashwa

Here, the wilderness holds space for you.
The river flows, the stars stretch wide, and the land itself becomes part of your retreat.

Words from Facilitators

“

Can’t wait to go back. Loved the yoga and meditation spaces. Wonderful to have in-house yoga and gorgeous mats, cushions, bolsters & art supplies. Absolutely the perfect place for a retreat.

“

Facilitating Yoga classes on the Riverfront Yoga Deck absolutely exceeded my expectations. On our very first night, under a bright red African sunset, we had a curious herd of giraffe approach us & stop to watch us while we practised. The giraffe seemed to be just as in awe of us as we were of them. It was an experience like no other.

Can we visit Koru camp during my retreat? +

Although we do not conduct tours to the children’s educational community camp as this would be disruptive to their daily rhythm you may see them out and about enjoying a safari drive. Should you genuinely be interested in becoming a donor and getting more involved a visit can be arranged during your stay.

Is there flexibility in the itinerary? +

Yes, we offer plenty of flexibility and love designing your retreat days alongside you. While we keep our meal times consistent (9:00, 13:00, and 19:00), we’re happy to tailor the daily flow to create your ideal retreat.

What are the chances of seeing the big 5? +

Encounters may include some of “The Big 5”, but our focus is firmly on fostering connection and meaningful time spent with all the wildlife on the land. We believe the local Shangaan saying that “a leopard chooses to reveal him/herself to us, we do not choose to see a leopard”, and this is true for all wildlife. Our borders are open to the entire 2,6 million hectares of the Greater Kruger Biosphere allowing wildlife to roam freely onto and through our land.
