What is special about Mashatu Euphorbia Villas?

Euphorbia Mashatu epitomizes what it means to travel consciously and luxuriously in the wild. Intimate and design-led, it’s the only 5-star lodge in the Northern Tuli region of Botswana, offering eight private villas on a vast 42,000-hectare private game reserve – where nature, solitude, and sustainability converge.

Each villa draws inspiration from the organic, curved form of the Mopane pod, a seed indigenous to the area. This subtle biomimicry shapes the layout of each space, from the rounded walls to the flow between indoor and outdoor living.

What makes Euphorbia truly unique is the freedom it offers. Guests can swap out a morning or afternoon game drive for an additional adventure activity—be it a walking safari, horseback safari, cycling safari, spa treatment, a session in the award-winning photographic hide and more—at no extra cost.

The experience is elevated by extraordinary attention to detail with four guests per safari game vehicle, intimate sightings, elegant eco-conscious design, and sweeping views from private plunge pools.

Euphorbia isn’t just about where you sleep – it’s about how you feel. A safari experience that feels as personal as it is purposeful.
