A getaway into the wilderness where the only sounds one can hear is the beautiful songs from the birds and a breath of fresh air are all one needs at that particular time.
Losha Bush Lodge, situated 80 kilometres away from Gaborone and about eight kilometres from Medie village in Kweneng East at Maetlo Farms (masimo) is the perfect get away place. Its director, Ginah Pabalinga described the lodge as the delta in the South. She explained that the predominantly offered tranquillity and relaxation are their main selling propositions.
She added that their clients could be able to connect with nature, their soul, themselves and would come out of the lodge relaxed and in a better state. "One of the reasons our lodge is like that is because it is in the middle of nowhere, in the middle of the bush and is a fully green energy lodge where everything we do is solar based.
We try by all means to not to introduce new flora, keep it the way we found it so that people can truly connect with it. It has scenic views where people can come and see, enjoy a very good bird life where you see majestic sunset views while sipping on their favourite beverages and enjoying scrumptious food prepared by our in-house chefs," she explained. She added that they have a spa where people could have their massages and facials. Pabalinga, who is married to one of the giant music promoters in the country Thapelo 'Fish' Pabalinga, also said they offer bush walk and stargazing services where people could truly connect with nature and be in touch with their inner selves.
Furthermore, she pointed out that they also offer cooperate getaways where companies could bring senior management to go and strap out their views, to determine and structure their companies’ future.
She added that Losha Bush Lodge was ideal to host such meetings because it was safe and quiet therefore there was nothing to disturb their peace of mind or concentration. She also said the lodge was a safe place for families adding that the place was big enough for children to play around. She added that they had a swimming pool, domesticated ducks that they could watch and on the other side of the farm they also have sheep, goats and Setswana chickens. She also said they have irrigation farm where children could appreciate where the food they eat comes from and how it was grown. She said they do organic farming adding that they try recycling everything they use including taking their organic manure from their chicken droppings, goats, cattle dung.
The lodge prides itself in having 11 chalets where two of them are family houses and a guest suite named after her husband Thapelo. She pointed out that together with her husband they decided to name their rooms after some of their family members and children from both sides. Even though the interior design of all the rooms are breath taking, the suite shows that it is indeed named after the man of the house. From the bathroom to the bedroom it has a unique touch where everything befits a king's place for it to be named after the man of the house and it is right besides madam's room. The two family houses are very breath taking.
She said a group of friends (four) could choose to book family houses and share to cut the costs. The lodge also offers camping just by the family houses for adventurous people passionate about adventurous tourism. It has a beautiful area where people or even a couple has a chance to watch the sunset while enjoying their drink, a scene perfect for couples. It gives delta vibes on dry winter days. The room prices range from P800 to P1,200 and P1,600 for family houses per night.
