About Dumela Lodge
Dumela Lodge is “Your home away from home” when visiting Francistown in the north-eastern part of Botswana, whether on business or just passing through. Dumela is the very first word you hear when you enter Botswana's borders. It means "hello" or "good day".
We are a family-owned and managed “bush lodge” in Francistown, perfectly located as a stopover to the Sua Pans, Central Kalahari Game Reserve, Makgadikgadi National Park, Nxai Pan National Park, Maun, Moremi Game Reserve, Okavango Delta, Chobe National Park, Livingstone in Zambia, and the famous Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe.
Features of Dumela Lodge
We are located quietly on a 3.6-hectare plot, just under a 10-minute drive from both the city centre and the airport. Our main complex is constructed from raised timber decks, half-split gum pole walls, and a thatched roof.
The open-plan structure houses a reception area, cocktail bar (where you can catch up with your favourite sport on satellite TV), and restaurant. The main complex provides a Wi-Fi hotspot for all. Just bring your gadget and keep in touch with family and friends.
