“Lion Sands has been our home for four generations and is therefore deeply ingrained in our DNA. With this in mind, we began our journey of redesigning the Ivory Lodge experience. We took our cue from the passion and appreciation we have for the environment, and how we have been fortunate enough to savor it in the comfort of our own private lodge, 1933.” – Robert More
