"Cheetah Plains has a design unlike any other safari lodge in the Sabi Sands Nature Reserve. The three exclusive-use, four-beedroom villas are sleek and modern, furnished with bold artwork by South Africa's most famous artists. The ace card is a sexy new fleet of electric safari vehicles"

"These three ultra-modern 4-bedroom homes (booked individually or together) are remarkable for their especially game-rich location in private Sabi Sand reserve, adjacent to unfenced Kruger National Park. (The near-silent electric 4X4s help too.)"

"South Africa's Cheetah Plains camp, which runs entirely on solar power, owns a fleet of solar-powered Toyota Land Cruisers with Tesla batteries that eliminate the need to transport fuel into the remote Sabi Sands Nature Reserve. For guests, the quiet machines ensure less intrusive wildlife sightings."

"Cheetah Plains, a sumptuous collection of exclusive-use, solar- powered villas in Sabi Sands Game Reserve in Greater Kruger, is owned by Japie van Niekerk, one of South Africa's few early adopters of ESVs. Guests explore the landscape in vehicles that are customised for comfort as well as silence."
