Shirhombehombe is a private family safari villa, offering unrestricted wildlife encounters in the heart of the wild.

Located on the banks of the Olifants River, a major lifeline in the greater Kruger National Park sustaining a rich diversity of wildlife including elephants, hippos, and crocodiles, this private lodge offers a truly magnificent setting for family and friends to embark on an unforgettable safari adventure. The perennial river ensures scenic views year round and ample opportunities for game viewing from the privacy of the lodge's lawns and deck, without needing to leave the secure confines of the lodge's fenced surrounds.

The comfortable and spacious accommodation includes five en-suite 'rondavels' (cylindrical houses with thatched roofs) and a six-sleeper dormitory ideal for children, providing ample space for extended families. The beautifully renovated kitchen boasts modern amenities and ample space for the whole group to gather, cook, and dine together.

Take time out with daily housekeeping on offer and receive assistance from the dedicated hospitality team with meal preparation. The lodge comfortably accommodates up to 20 guests with extra beds available in each rondavel. Children are free to safely explore the sweeping lush lawns within the fully fenced lodge surrounds; majestic indigenous trees provide ample shade from which to watch wildlife meander by to the river below, as well as enjoy the playful antics of the resident herd of hippos. Venture out on exclusive game drives on the concession and within the nature reserve, and at night, gather around the boma fire pit for starlit evenings under the African sky whilst sharing encounters of the day's adventures.
