Overview
Home of the exclusive-use luxury safari experience in South Africa’s most celebrated wildlife area, the Sabi Sand, Cheetah Plains is the epitome of a sophisticated, innovative, eco-luxury safari experience for the modern age. Perfect for an exclusive family vacation or a luxurious sojourn with friends, your safari hideaway is complimented with a dedicated hospitality team for the duration of your stay, indulging you in a refined, personalised and private sustainable safari experience of a lifetime.
Mapogo House is one of three exclusive-use villa units that make up Cheetah Plains. Each villa can accommodate up to 8 guests in 4 separate Bush Villas. Total number of guests is 24.
Mapogo overlooks an active waterhole, often filled with hippo. The raw masculinity of the structure embodies the power and purpose that characterised the Mapogo brotherhood: a coalition of lions that reigned supreme in this area for years. Together, they exacted dominion in a fierce, uncompromising way. They displayed an unwavering mutual loyalty and their affection for one another was at once powerful and wonderful to behold.
