Thota Lodge and Boma

Thota Lodge is an exclusive, rustic self-catering guest lodge, acclaimed by Getaway Magazine as one of the 10 coolest places to stay in the Kalahari. The lodge can accommodate up to eight guests and is fuelled by gas and candles. With no cell phone reception, it is a true escape from everything. On this 2,000-hectare expanse of land you will be the only human amongst 10 species of game including gemsbok, springbok, blesbok, duiker, porcupine, warthog, jackal, and caracal.

Experience endless horizons, enjoy stargazing in deafening silence, and see why the Milky Way is called just that. For the bird lover we offer fantastic bird watching, with over 100 species of birds, while for the adventurer, horse riding and hiking trails are available. Feast your eyes on breathtaking Kalahari dawns and fabulous sunsets, with the typical thorn trees etched against orange to purple skies. Build a bonfire, watch a unique Thota sunset and meercats at play whilst relaxing on the sun deck and sipping a sundowner.
