Leopard Hills is one of the World’s Best Luxury Adventure Holidays

Sept. 26, 2011 - PRLog -- Leopard Hills Private Game Reserve is honoured to have been nominated as one of the Best Luxury Adventure Holidays in the World for 2012.

The award was presented by AdventureTemples™, an exciting new luxury adventure travel service and online community, with members in more than 25 countries.

Competition was fierce, with hundreds of destinations and thousands of hotels under consideration. To qualify, hotels have to offer a great range of activities for body, mind and spirit, from a stunning luxury base - so even the most discerning guests will find excitement, inspiration and relaxation. After many rounds of voting and expert selection, winners from 36 countries were chosen, and will be commemorated in a prestigious coffee-table photo-guidebook.

Leopard Hills is built on a hill overlooking a natural waterhole and close to the perennial Sand River and truly lives up to its name. This exclusive lodge traverses over 10 000 hectares in the western sector of the Sabi Sand Game Reserve and offers some of the best Big 5 game viewing in Southern Africa.

With only eight beautifully appointed suites, Leopard Hills offers as much privacy as you could wish for. Each of the luxurious glass-fronted suites has superb views of the bushveld beyond, while air-conditioning and overhead fans provide added comfort against the African bush. The private deck and heated rock plunge pools are perfect venues for relaxing with a drink from the fully stocked mini-bar. The suites are complete with all the comforts you could desire, including romantic bathrooms with Victorian ball-and-claw bath and double indoor and outdoor shower.

Activities on offer are spectacular Cascade & Canyon Helicopter flight over the Blyde River Canyon, African elephant interactions at Elephant Whispers and an array of bush spa treatments in the privacy of your suite or in the glass walled massage Sala overlooking the tranquil ambience of the surrounding bush. While you are being pampered or working out in the gym you may see a herd of elephant drinking at the waterhole! Guests can also enjoy a traditional Shangaan boma dinner or bush breakfast. Alternatively, one may request a trip to the Cultural Village, relax in the library with Internet facilities and African Literature or browse the well stocked Curio Shop.

At Leopard Hills, Africa’s big game abounds and each day is different, as you explore the endless fascination of Africa’s wildlife in custom-designed deluxe Land Rovers. Early morning and late afternoon / evening game drives and walking safaris in search of Africa’s big game, are conducted by your knowledgeable, professional ranger.
