Wild Luxury at Safari Lodge

Mar 19, 2026, updated Mar 19, 2026

A luxurious safari stay is closer than you think, with Safari Lodge at Monarto Safari Resort now open for bookings for stays from the 2nd of April. Located adjacent to the Hotel within Monarto Safari Park’s Wild Africa precinct just one hour from Adelaide, Safari Lodge offers a unique and secluded escape, surrounded by the calming sounds of nature and roaming wildlife just metres away.

All-Inclusive, All Unforgettable

Every detail of your stay at Safari Lodge has been carefully considered, with luxury extending beyond the accommodation. The all-inclusive escape features daily breakfast, lunch, afternoon canapes and dinner plus a selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages and a locally stocked in-room mini bar. Elevating the experience is an immersive sunset safari in a custom-built Landcruiser. With completely open-sides, the small 9-seater vehicle allows for an even more immersive adventure through Wild Africa. Guests are also invited to visit Monarto Safari Park with a multi-day general admission pass, allowing plenty of time to explore the expansive 1,500-hectare Park.

Safari Lodge offers an intimate and exclusive getaway. 20 luxury safari tents surround a centrally located lodge, only accessible to guests who are staying.

Each tent boasts a spacious lounge area, a plush king or twin bed, ensuite bathroom and separate dressing room. Step out onto your private deck where sweeping views of the neighbouring waterhole stretch before you. It’s an exhilarating front-row seat to the animals that call Wild Africa home.

The main lodge is where guests will be able to find Safari Lodge’s private restaurant and bar which will showcase local South Australian produce and brands through multi-course dinners and curated beverage menus. Whilst not taking in the wildlife, guests can relax in the swimming and plunge pools or burn some energy at the gym and pickleball court. The outdoor lounge has beautiful views across the savannah and is the perfect spot for sundowners in the evening or stargazing before bed.

Sip, Savour, Safari

Be one of the first to stay at Safari Lodge when you book your ticket to Sip, Savour, Safari, an overnight food and wine adventure, created in association with Tasting Australia. This one-of-a-kind event includes a seven-course degustation with paired wines, a bespoke guided safari, accommodation in one of the luxury safari tents, and more.

Stay Wild at Monarto Safari Resort

For those seeking a more casual yet equally as memorable stay, the Hotel at Monarto Safari Resort is the ideal staycation. With spacious rooms and suites, contemporary Australian dining, and indulgent Day Spa, families, friends and couples alike will feel worlds away amongst some of Africa’s wildest animals.

A Place Where Conservation, Connection and Luxury Meet

For every stay at Safari Lodge, as with the Resort, a portion of the accommodation rate will be donated to Monarto Safari Park’s conservation programs, directly investing in the future of the surrounding environment.
