Maliba News Flash!

The new year has bought exciting new developments for Maliba Lodge and the team. The new projects are based around improving what Maliba and Lesotho has to offer for our guests.

Towards the end of the year, our massage therapists will be able to boast about a 2 bed spa facility tucked neatly in the Che Che trees and situated on one of our streams near the main lodge. Massage treatments can then be enjoyed from the room or at our spa. A variety of treatments will be added to ensure guests have a range of options for total relaxation in the mountains.  Read more

Maliba’s New Virtual Tours

The most common feedback we receive from our guests is that ‘our photos don’t do the lodge justice!. I have that exact same thought every time I stand on the Lodge’s balcony and gaze out over the mountains! How could we possibly convey the grandeur of the setting on our website?

Thanks to Andrew Martens from RC Helicam we have come a long way to achieving just that. We now have the most spectacular images and aerial virtual tours that allow viewers to not only interact with the videos but explore the Lodge from virtually anywhere they choose. 

Andrew, with his remote controlled helicopter and camera equipment arrived at the lodge, stayed only one night and captured both the lodge and mountains with a series of 16 high definition panoramas. Read more
