With the pressures modern-day families face today, it is no wonder that time is more often than not seen as one of the most precious commodities. Families in search of the perfect place to reconnect with loved ones need to look no further than a visit to Sabi Sabi Private Game Reserve.
With the addition of Sabi Sabi to the 3Sixty Luxury Marketing portfolio, we have been working closely with the team on the ground to highlight some of their incredible family offerings and showcase how a memorable bush and nature experience offers the perfect getaway for all.
An enriched family experience
There is a definite increase in multi-generational travel. An increasing number of families are visiting Sabi Sabi, often arriving with their minds still at the office but leaving with unforgettable memories stamped into their hearts.
Families from around the world gather to reconnect and spend quality time together. The perfect opportunity to engage with each other and enjoy the natural surroundings and in turn instilling a true love for the wilderness.
A multifaceted family getaway
The family experience is prioritised and filtered through to every single aspect of the stay at Sabi Sabi including the accommodation, the food and most importantly, the engaging activities.
Bush Lodge, often referred to as “your luxury home in the bush” is loved as the ultimate quintessential family home environment, allowing families to feel at home from the moment they arrive at the lodge. Spread over a large area, the grounds offer a dynamic and safe space to explore while the suites are equipped with all of the luxuries and necessities to make the stay more than comfortable for both adults and children alike.
The Luxury Villas offer two separate suites connected with a central lounge leading to a private pool. The perfect solution for families seeking a bit more space and privacy.
Sabi Sabi’s head chef and his team are skilled in creating a menu that offers adults an authentic fine dining experience, while children indulge in the joys of wholesome familiarity.
The chef is often seen chatting with families to establish their likes and dislikes when it comes to the food on offer. The focus at Sabi Sabi is always on offering healthy, nutritious and seasonal food – the perfect recipe for growing minds and active bodies!
In instances where parents wish to enjoy various activities, such as a safari or a boma dinner without their children, Sabi Sabi also provides a child minding service that can be booked at the lodge for a nominal fee.
The lodge offers an opportunity to learn about nature first hand – including the wildlife, surrounding flora, conservation and how we, as humans have a role to play in the protection of the environment. Sabi Sabi teaches these lessons through engaging activities, arts and crafts, carefully planned games (with themes to match) and experienced guides, who help bring the bush to life and share these stories with families at a level suitable to all.
Elefun Centre – the heart of family fun
The EleFun Centre was created as a way to provide a fun and engaging environment for families. Allowing parents to not only enjoy special time with their children, but also allowing them to have some downtime, knowing that their kids will be cared for in a safe and secure setting. At the EleFun Centre families learn, have fun, experience adventure and bond in their shared experience together.
The centre offers a host of activities, such as a maze, zip line, an obstacle course and arts and crafts. Children are taught to embrace the joys of nature in a sustainable and respectful way.
Anyone visiting the EleFun Centre will notice the handprints on the walls where children are given the opportunity to leave their mark, just as the Centre has done on their hearts and minds. The centre offers an opportunity for children to engage in the environment of learning by socialising with others from various walks of life, all with a common goal of caring for the natural world.
Each child visiting Sabi Sabi leaves as a potential conservationist of the future. Essentially the EleFun Centre plants a seed that will hopefully grow and develop this passion. The desire is for each child to leave with an understanding of how they can make a difference in the world around them.
Sabi Sabi continues to put the family first in all that they do, hoping that adults and children alike will not only leave feeling loved and connected but also inspired to make a change in improving the sustainability of the wonderful world that we live in.
