Siviti

Siviti Timbavati Plains Lodge, formerly known as Thornybush River Lodge, is derived from the Xitsonga word Xiviti meaning intellectual. Siviti’s land is named Timbavati Plains. Because historically the Lowveld area around the Timbavati River consisted of dense grass cover correspondingly trees. Previous fencing limited the movement of elephants. Evidently, resulting in dense bush taking over the grass plains.  With the removal of the fences correspondingly opening of reserves, elephants can once again move freely returning the area to its previous glory. 

Timbavati River

Set alongside the banks of the Timbavati river, you will enjoy private views of curious as well as thirsty animals.  Specifically elephants. Whether overlooking the main deck rim-flow pool or from the shaded waters of your private plunge pool. It is because of this that we decided to make an ode and name our lodge and land after these beautiful and intelligent creatures. 

Within the Untamed African Bushveld, lies Siviti  You will experience unsurpassed game viewing opportunities. Personalized service and prime amenities blends well with game viewings.

​​With only six private suites, including the superb two-suite Timbavati Villa, Siviti is limited to 12 guests. Ensuring an intimate wilderness experience. With elegant furnishings in the main lodge and private suites. Thus you will feel right at home from the moment you arrive!

We have recently added the 8-sleeper Timbavati Homestead to the Siviti offering. Whilst having the luxury of being in the bush, the Timbavati Homestead offers an exclusive family-style experience.

5.0 "By Allison England - Absolutely Amazing"

We had an absolutely amazing experience staying at Siviti for four nights. The lodge is very nice and we loved having our own separate cabin with private plunge pool. Our guide, Henrico, and tracker, Steve, were absolutely excellent. You could tell their passion and knowledge for their jobs, and they were dedicated to helping us see the animals we hoped to. We saw all Big 5, plus many more amazing animals up close. Beyond them, every single person we encountered at Siviti was warm, friendly, and helpful. The food was all delicious- our only concern that it was too plentiful! We left so full after eating so well. Our favorite dinner experience was the braai, which was a fun experience and also had our favorite food of the trip. There are so many options of lodges, but we highly recommend Siviti!
