Luxury safari villa | Sabie River | 7 min to Kruger Gate | Villa in Hazyview
5 Bedroom Villa in Belfast, Hazyview
NKOVA SABIE — LUXURY SAFARI VILLA ON THE SABIE RIVER
Rated 10/10. Newly built. Exclusively yours.
Nkova Sabie is a luxury self-catered villa sleeping up to 10 guests, set within the exclusive Elephant Point Private Reserve on the banks of the Sabie River — with uninterrupted views directly into the Kruger National Park. Paul Kruger Gate is 7 minutes away.
This is not a standard holiday rental. Every detail has been chosen to give guests an exceptional African experience: hand-crafted live-edge furniture, reclaimed wood frames around the owner's award-winning wildlife photography, Egyptian cotton linen, granite baths and outside showers in every en-suite, and a heated infinity pool that seems to pour straight into the bush.
Hippos wallow in the river below. Lions, leopards and elephant roam the park minutes away. And when the sun goes down, the boma fire comes alive under a sky full of stars.
