"Fresh air is as good for the mind as for the body. Nature always seems trying to talk to us as if she had some great secret to tell. And so she has." - John Lubbock 🌿
2025 was defined by soulful safaris, where every moment told a story ✨
From morning game drives and Amarula coffee in the bush to smiles greeting you back at the lodge, from blissful spa escapes to plunges in the pool, and from snacks on the deck to magical evenings with the herd at sundowners. As we watch the sun set on this year, we celebrate every memory made in the bushveld and look forward to another year of wonder, connection and adventure.
A Soulful Thank You to Our 2025 Family | A Letter from Jabulani GM, Ruan 🌿
"As 2025 draws to a close, I want to take a moment to thank the incredible people who make Jabulani not just a lodge, but a home under the African sky. Every smile, every joke, every quiet act of care contributes to the magic you experience here, the Soulful Safari that stays with you long after the sun sets.
As the days grow warmer, these gentle giants turn to the golden sands for relief, where sand baths become a natural sunscreen, a cooling shield and the perfect self-care ritual crafted by nature itself.
🐘 Come discover the calm and beauty of Setombe and the Jabulani herd on your next safari adventure.
Every season brings a fresh perspective to your safari experience 🌿
Relax in your own private pool as the bush transforms beside you, sip on a refreshing cool drink and let the soft sounds of the wild surround your moment of calm.
Bathed in the soft glow of a spotlight, her silhouette tells the story of the bush after dark: mysterious, untamed and alive with unseen energy.
For a brief moment, the lioness stands still, framed in gold, and we are reminded of the rare privilege it is to witness the world as it moves at its own, natural pace.
As the sun sinks behind the Drakensberg, the bush falls into its golden hush 🌄
The sky softens into shades of rose and amber, and the stillness stretches across the plains, broken only by the gentle rustle of the evening breeze. Guests gather beside the water’s edge, sharing quiet conversation and a drink in hand, as the light dances over the horizon.
It’s a time when the day’s adventures settle into memory and the magic of night begins, when nature reminds us how extraordinary simple moments can be.
Joy is as simple as a spoonful of sweetness and a quiet moment to savour it ✨
Whether enjoyed under soft afternoon light or beneath the stars, each dessert carries a touch of the warmth and wonder that defines the Jabulani experience.
