RHINO SANDS SAFARI CAMP - Manyoni Private Game Reserve Hotels

Rhino Sands Safari Camp has 4 luxury tents, each with a private plunge pool and an outdoor shower. The tents are spaced far apart for privacy and overlook the Msunduzi River. Inside, they are spacious, with comfortable beds and a deck with views of the river and wildlife. The camp is fully solar-powered, so no generators are needed. Each tent has its own pool, and guests can watch animals from their deck.

Daily game drives are led by experienced rangers who know the reserve well. The Manyoni Private Game Reserve is home to the Big 5-lion, leopard, elephant, rhino, and buffalo-as well as cheetahs, hippos, giraffes, and many bird species. Because the reserve is smaller than some others, you can see more animals in less time. Guests often report close encounters, sometimes just meters away. The rangers are knowledgeable and enthusiastic, adding to the experience. There are also board games and puzzles available for downtime.

Rhino Sands is in the Manyoni Private Game Reserve, about 100 km from St Lucia and 300 km from King Shaka International Airport. The camp overlooks the Msunduzi River, so you can see animals from your tent. There's no direct public transport, so most guests drive or arrange a transfer. The nearest town with supplies is Hluhluwe, about 90 km away. The reserve is ideal for self-drive or guided safaris, and the camp staff can help with transfers on request.
