In the midst of the busy winter season, our spa therapist team completed a refresher course led by the trainer from Africology, our product supplier. We are pleased to welcome Evonciah as a new member to the spa team, by which we can ensure the massage and treatment offer in Rhulani with three therapists.

Have you ever wondered what happens out in the bush when night falls and you go to sleep? We have set up a permanent camera in front of the waterhole at Rhulani Safari Lodge where we can keep track of the night’s activity. Look what we’ve discovered in the past two weeks!

The timing was good and the situation urgent: during Rhulani’s quieter period before the start of the winter months, our team helped carry out much-needed repair work at the Secondary School in the nearby village of Supingstad. A defective roof was removed, eliminating a significant safety hazard, and the grass was cut so the children can enjoy playing football again.

A few years have passed since we produced a series of wonderful videos and photos of Rhulani Safari Lodge together with Julia, “Miss Supernational 2012” of Denmark. A lot has changed since then. New services, increased quality, especially in the Food & Beverage Department, and a new great underground hide at the watering hole. Time to do new film shootings with Julia. Today’s blog is a greetings from the film work.

The recent visit to Rhulani by the well-known Ednah Rosen, author of the award-winning book “Taste of Botswana”, gave our three chefs a new inspiration for exquisite menu creations with a local touch. In addition to what we had learned, Ednah’s energy and enthusiasm also spilled over to us.

Once more we had the privilege to have Mr. Braam West from the South African Butler Academy (SABA) at Rhulani Safari Lodge and confirm that our long term relationship with SABA is a key success factor for us. In this new edition of the traditional training week, in which Rhulani’s owner Marisa also took part, we once again achieved the right mix of inspiration, learning and fun.

Rhulani Safari Lodge today announced it has been recognized by Tripadvisor as a 2023 Travelers’ Choice award winner. The award celebrates businesses that have received great traveler reviews from travelers around the globe on Tripadvisor over the last 12 months. As challenging as the past year was, Rhulani stood out by consistently delivering positive experiences to travelers.

We are pleased to show you today the new official Rhulani Safari Lodge promotional video. Like last time, the project was realized together with Julia Prokopenko, former Miss Supernational of Denmark, under the “InspectorLUX” brand. Take your time and immerse yourself in the “Rhulani feeling”. It takes about four minutes.

Time flies fast. What a boring statement. But all the more exciting is our project, called “Rhulani NEXT”, with which we keep the lodge in good shape, adapting it along with the modernization, but also making sure that we leave the “look & feel” that is appreciated by our guests. In a further stage, which has just been concluded, our designer from Flipswitch Interior Design, Heather Macquisten, did an excellent job again. Have a look!

The “Local Village Tour” is an add-on to the luxury safari experience where you get a an insight into the life of a local community. This offers you another inspiring and totally different facet along your journey. That was also the case with our recent guests, Dominik Kohler and his family from Switzerland. Months later, the lasting memories brought two new footballs to the local primary school.
