Perhaps it's a fusion of African sensibilities with the rose from which Summerfields River Lodge & Rose Spa derives its intriguing charm. Or is it the bygone romance underscored by percale linen in a tented lodge suite? If not that then the fact that you may take a treatment in a spa pavilion set beside the river in which hippos bathe at dusk?

Luxuriously appointed, tented suites are set beneath a canopy of Jackalberry and Tambotie trees while Summerfields prides itself on service that is sublime and genteel. Along with a gourmet kitchen, all of this defines Summerfields River Lodge & Rose Spa as a most enchanting place to re-ignite your senses.

At the Spa you will find both indulgence and immediate healing in a variety of unique, signature treatments and facilities such as the rose quartz steam shower. Take dinner over-looking the valley and be mesmerized by chef Lienkie Erasmus' culinary skill.

In the vicinity are all the adventurous ideas one might want to consider - from game drives to tree canopy aerial walkways - though you will be excused for simply wanting to spend all your time at Summerfields River Lodge & Rose Spa, the essential place to stop and smell the roses.
