HOTEL REVIEWS - KRUGER NATIONAL PARK SOUTH AFRICA, SAFARI TOUR
Arathusa - from the Northern Sotho word “Reathusa”, which means “to help one another” - is an owner-managed luxury 5-star game lodge in the Sabie Sands sector of the Kruger National Park. It's a select lodge that accepts only 20 guests at a time. Luxury thatched-roof chalets, each with a king-sized four-poster bed and ensuite, are built on the banks of a big lake where animals come to drink. This includes the Big 5: lion, leopard, rhino, elephant and buffalo. Guests can watch from the comfort of their verandas. A herd of hippos wallowing in the lake provides round-the-clock entertainment. There are no TV or telephones in rooms but calls, emails and faxes can be made from reception. Game drives depart morning and late afternoon; guided walks may also be arranged. Look out for the elusive leopard - Arathusa is famed for its leopard sightings as about 14 of the territorial cats are found in the area — six are seen regularly, including a female named Safari often spotted around camp.
