The Maliba river lodge is a very nice place to relax. It is very comfortable. The food is very good. We loved our stay there as a group at Maliba Lodge. We stayed in one of the self catering chalets by the river which was beautiful and peaceful. The food at the restaurant was amazing! The dinners were true three course marvels! Such a beautiful setting where we were able to hike

Gorgeous lodge in breathtaking mountains (aka Mountain Kingdom)

We loved our stay at Maliba Lodge.  We stayed in one of the self catering chalets by the river which was beautiful and peaceful.  The food at the restaurant was amazing!  The dinners were true three course marvels!  Such a beautiful setting where we were able to hike and horseback ride while also doing the tour of the nearby village to experience some of Lesotho's interesting culture.  

Gorgeous lodge in breathtaking setting

The Maliba river lodge is a very nice place to relax. It is very confortable and the personnel  is very pleasant. The food is very good and many activities are proposed to enjoy few days is this lodge.

Very nice place

We loved Maliba, it was so serene and tranquil. However the rooms we slept in were a disappointment considering the rate. We slept in the rooms below the staff quarters, those rooms were apparently built to accommodate when part of the lodge burnt. The rooms are 100 rands more than River Lodge and yet the river lodge is better equipped . I was not told the rooms description before I booked, and what was more disappointing was that we could not be given a refund when we reported our displeasure. 

Maliba July 2019

I had a good stay at Maliba lodge and will definitely call again. The staff was very friendly and professional. The only issue was that there was no TV at the River lodges that we occupied and my kids were really not impressed with that. Otherwise all was perfect.

Maliba Lodge

The location is wonderful, in the middle of glorious nature, right by the Hlotse river. My cottage was huge, and though rustic, had everything I needed. There's a wood-burning fire which the staff light for you in the evening. Meals and WiFi are available at the Mountain Lodge, an easy four-minute drive away. The Mountain Lodge facilities are also free to use and the lounge is lovely.
The staff are excellent, well trained and they do all they can to help your stay in every way. The food in the restaurant is surprisingly good.
All in all, highly recommended.

Spacious yet cosy, excellent staff

If you enjoy nature and outdoor pursuits and are looking to get away from it all, this is the place for you. Hikes, river swims and other paid activities abound. We stayed at the stone cottages next to the river and found them to be well appointed and comfortable.  They have a restaurant available at reception, but we did all our own catering.  Lovely braai area and indoor fire place, and the first bag of wood is free.  Just be sure to bring everything you need as you are very far from the closest town.

Far from the maddening crowd

Maliba is a very nice place to stay while visiting Lesotho. Its location in the mountains is stunning and the views from every angle are wonderful! We stayed in a Riverside Chalet that fit four adults and four children easily. The chalet was nice and comfortable but was lacking for self catering purposes. It has the basics but nothing extra (stock up on coffee if you dont want to make the trip to the lodge for your first morning cup) cleanliness was a 3.5 out of 5, nothing awful but cupboards are old and dusty and corners and small spaces are not well looked after. Overall we really enjoyed our stay the hiking that can be done right from the lodge is a major bonus.  Restaurant was a 3.5 out of 5, as service and food ranged from good to great depending on the meal.

Very nice place.

The villas are huge and fully equipped. They were clean, but they are in desperate need of some renovation or updating. The views are really nice from the balcony / deck. Quite a walk up the to the reception and breakfast area, but the breakfast is really good and all staff was very helpful and friendly. 

Huge and amazing views 

Very nice lodge at the end of the world. The service is very friendly, the kitchen has more ambitions than overall skills. All in all highly recommended. The location is splendid, all paths well kept, signed and not very demanding.
