Set in the malaria free Zebula Nature Reserve with its own golf course and tarred runway, Botsebotse is a picture perfect Luxury Retreat consisting of a main lodge with detached wings in which only four sumptuous rooms are housed. Beautifully put together, Botsebotse Bush Retreat provides an inviting relaxing experience where guests can unwind with the option to have loads of fun on the side. What makes Botsebotse different? Perhaps it is about being owner managed, the people who make you feel so warmly welcome and the personal service that goes the extra mile. Or the luxuries you enjoy so much, like the massage that you can have in your room, breakfast in your PJ’s in your own courtyard, a picnic basket for your picnic in the bush, sumptuous romantic dinners next to a fireplace or in the boma under the starry sky, or that special little something left in your room at night. Perhaps it is about the things that you can do – like your own game drives, game walks and bicycle safaris in a reserve without predators, or the guided Big-5 safaris, white lions and cheetahs only 10 minutes away. Or perhaps it is about playing a bit of tennis or squash, a visit to the gym or a round of golf with animals keeping you company on the fairways. Or maybe it’s more about the whole experience than one single thing. More about the memories you made and the occasions that you celebrated and the strange way that you felt completely at home. That’s why people come back to Botsebotse Luxury Retreat, again and again because it feels like home – even for the first time.
