Lush Private Lodge

Intro

Lush is located on the Black Rhino Game Reserve – a private concession area within the malaria-free greater Pilanesberg National Park. Tucked into a wooded hillside, Lush is a contemporary lodge, shaped around the environment. Minimalistic décor and natural finishes put the focus on the view, at once drawing guests to outdoor living spaces. The lodge’s five individual, luxury suites afford the privacy of home, while the main lodge – run on Italian hospitality – ensures you are very well taken care of.

Accommodation

The multi-level interior, flowing into exterior spaces – made up of a bar, dining area, sunken lounges, and a wrap-around viewing deck – are designed for outdoor living.

Standard Suites:

These spacious and comfortable double-volume suites are anything but standard. Each unit is complete with a furnished private deck, plunge pool, outdoor shower, emperor-size bed, pause area and a beautiful bathroom. The lodge prides itself in offering guests standard suites designed with every comfort in mind.

Luxury Suites:

Currently under construction, larger Luxury Suites will offer guests more privacy and exclusivity and will feature partly covered rooftop seating areas to enjoy views of the reserve and the Pilanesberg mountains.
