Sky Lodge

Magic Hills Private Collection Game Reserve is a secret, family-owned wilderness sanctuary tucked away in a secluded corner of the Great Karoo. It is here you will find the appropriately-named Sky Lodge, a villa that rests on top one of the highest mountains in the area. Feel like you’re living in the clouds with panoramic skies above and vast, shimmering plains below. The lodge is comprised of seven luxurious suites and two separate apartments, making this an ideal exclusive-use space for extended families or groups of friends. Each suite is airy and spacious and two have their own private pools. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors in the reception areas offer breath-taking views. The interior décor features earthy tones that naturally connect to the surrounding nature. The reception rooms contain big fireplaces for those crisp Karoo nights, while the infinity pool is the perfect place to cool off during sweltering summer days. The expansive deck is where you’ll want to be at night, as milky skies give way to spectacular star gazing. Magic Hills is home to a rich variety of wildlife, including the Big Five and the cheetah. You’ll enjoy daily adventures either on Big Five game drives or game walks on foot with a skilled guide. Hikes include the Cheetah Walk and the Rhino Walk, both offering lessons in wildlife conservation. Sky Lodge guests with a taste for adrenaline can head out rock climbing or abseiling adventures while those who enjoy a more leisurely pace can go on an excursion to recently-discovered rock art sites. Under the starry galaxies of “Dark Sky Country” and the wide-open, breezy air of “Big Sky Country”, Magic Hills allows you space to breathe and just be.
