Cybele Forest Lodge
Hazyview, Kruger Park Concessions
- Dare to resist the romance, charm and tranquillity of a luxury forest lodge
- Private suites with five-star amenities and décor to match
- Fine dining, excellent wines and a decadent health spa
If the words ‘Forest Lodge’ don’t evoke a picture of indulgent escape under a lush canopy high in the mountains, the name Cybele should.
A five-star Relais & Chateaux property, Cybele Forest Lodge offers the quiet charm, excellent food, unique setting and genial efficiency that the organisation demands of its members.
Surrounded by 120 hectares of thick forest with exciting names like African Violet, Jacaranda and the Princess-flower, the lodge is a tranquil haven with mountain views and supreme levels of luxury and service.
The rooms, suites and luxury cottages have bright original paintings and rich-coloured fabrics and open onto private courtyards with mountain views; separate lounge areas and enormous bathrooms add to the luxury. All rooms have mini bars, log fireplaces, air conditioning, TV/video, heated towel rails, gowns, Charlotte Rhys toiletries, and tea, coffee, fresh biscuits, and complimentary sherry.
Dining is a classic French-influenced extravaganza with home-grown ingredients and an acclaimed team of chefs serving up table d’hôte dinners, al fresco lunches and hearty breakfasts.
The health spa, in such a serene setting, is a must with a double treatment room, steam baths, power showers and hydrotherapy baths. The lodge has luxurious chauffeur-driven vehicles for excursions into the African bush of the low-lying surrounds; helicopter flips and fly-in safaris will give you the best of both worlds.

Cybele is about 30km from Nelspruit’s airport (KMIA) and about 40km from the Kruger Park, making it an ideal fly-in option or self-drive stopover. |

The Mpumalanga area surrounding the Kruger Park is a mountainous realm of tranquillity; rivers plop through lush thickets and the mist swirls like a wispy ballet dancer. |
