MALIBA MOUNTAIN LODGE
Bed & Breakfast Accommodation
in Butha Buthe, Butha Betha,
Lesotho, Africa
Located in the Royal Mountain Kingdom of Lesotho within the Tsehlanyane
National Park, Maliba Mountain Lodge is a mountain retreat set in a pristine
sub-alpine wilderness valley deep in the North of Lesotho's breathtaking Maluti/Drakensberg
Mountains. Maliba Mountain is the first 5-star lodge in Lesotho and it has set
the benchmark for future tourism development within the region.
Accommodation:
Guests are accommodated in one of six private and luxurious Basotho-style
mountain chalets. Each chalet is over 80m2 in size and is tastefully decorated
with natural earthy tones. The warm design element has been expressed by
under-floor heating, electric blankets, heated towel rails and wall panels which
create a comfortable living environment for guests during the cooler months. A
deep 2 person bath offers guests breathtaking views as one relaxes and soaks up
the tranquil surroundings. A king size extra length bed and mood lighting help
to create the final comfort features expected in luxury accommodation. A private
viewing deck, nestled in the trees provides guests with a completely unique way
to touch the heart of the Lesotho Mountains.
