18 On The Hill Lodge
18 On The Hill Safari Lodge is a luxury tented camp set in its own 10,000 hectares of the Maseke Game in the Balule Nature Reserve, The Greater Kruger in South Africa
Set in the Maseke section of the Balule Nature Reserve, with unfenced borders adjoining the iconic Kruger National Park, 18 On The Hill is an intimate luxury safari retreat where contemporary comfort meets the natural elegance of the African bush. Perched on a hill with breathtaking views of the surrounding wilderness, the lodge offers a peaceful setting in which to slow down, reconnect with nature and enjoy an authentic Greater Kruger safari.
The nine spacious canvas suites take glamping to a new level, combining the romance of a safari tent with the comfort and refinement of a luxury suite. Each is inspired by an indigenous tree found in the surrounding bush, with thoughtful design, modern amenities and private spaces created to encourage relaxation and a close connection with nature.
Professionally guided game drives explore the Greater Kruger wilderness, offering outstanding opportunities to encounter the Big Five alongside an abundance of birdlife and other wildlife. Back at camp, guests can relax and take in the sweeping views, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere of this special corner of the bush.
Food is an important part of the experience, with chefs creating beautifully presented gourmet dishes using fresh ingredients and local flavours inspired by the surrounding landscape. A fully equipped kosher kitchen is also available, with meals prepared to strict kosher standards without compromising on quality or presentation.
With its intimate scale, exceptional suites, superb wildlife and heartfelt approach to hospitality, 18 On The Hill offers a refined yet deeply authentic safari experience in the Greater Kruger.
