Located in the Royal Mountain Kingdom of Lesotho within the Ts’ehlanyane National Park, Maliba Mountain Lodge is a 5-star mountain retreat set in a pristine sub-alpine wilderness valley deep in the heart of Lesotho’s breath-taking mountains. Maliba Mountain Lodge is the first 5-star lodge in Lesotho and it has set the benchmark for future Lesotho Tourism ventures. Over 5600 hectares of extremely rugged wilderness mountain terrain is protected within this park, which includes one of the very few remaining indigenous woodlands in Lesotho.
Unlike most of Lesotho, the park has plenty of remnant vegetation dominated by mature CheChetrees all of which has historical significance to the Basotho people. Maliba will eventually boast the highest sub-alpine botanical garden in Africa, designed by renowned South African botanist Dr Elsa Pooley.
Six exclusive luxury Basotho-style chalets each offer private viewing decks stretching into the heart of the scenic woodland mountains. Plan the drive with the lodge before travelling, allowing for road conditions and the intended border crossing.

The highlight of the warm design element is the open fireplace in each chalet that sets the evening mood for a romantic discussion of the day’s events. A sunken bath offers guests breath-taking views as one relaxes and soaks up the tranquil surroundings.
