Why Purposeful Travellers Choose to Stay with Mantis

Expansive | Exclusive-use | Remote | Impactful

Mantis has been developing eco-lodges, hotels, waterways for over 20 years, and each one is designed uniquely to celebrate the culture of its location while giving creating inviting spaces for all.

While Mantis Development experts have been developing accommodations of every kind, we have also been making a significant impact in conservation, education, and communities with a team of professional conservationists and humanitarians.

All this expertise is invested in creating the most memorable and impactful experiences for our guests. From beautiful interiors in properties that are ideally suited to their environment, to various experiences that allow our guests to give back to, or participate in conservation and community upliftment. Mantis guests can make a meaningful contribution by enjoying certain products at our properties or by participating in projects run by our foundation; Community Conservation Fund Africa.

We have all been made aware of the fragility of life and the environment, and we hope that our attitude towards travel will evolve towards more considerate and purposeful voyagers.

Mantis offers expansive spaces, exclusive-use boutique hotels and lodges, remote destinations, and impactful experiences. Exceptional places for purposeful travellers to find themselves.

Expansive spaces

Privacy in spacious suites that are spread across the private estate surrounded by an ancient teak forest sounds like the ideal retreat.

The bedroom area is large, with a generous veranda that overlooks the forest – ideal for hearing the bird song and enjoying nature at its best.

With a large living area and verandah making up 90 sqm; there is ample space to choose a cozy nook for you and your loved one to enjoy a private dinner.

Exclusive-use by families & friends travelling together

Mantis Founders Lodge

Best for exclusive-use by multi-generational travel experiences

Mantis has been developing intimate hotels for over 20 years and we have a few across Africa. Mantis Founders Lodge is where it all began for the Mantis brand. It is an intimate lodge with only six spacious suites that lead into a central courtyard garden with beautiful fauna and birdlife. We think multi-generational travel will make the trip to Africa more worthwhile, and this intimate gem allows for exclusive use for families of up to 12 people. Families can go from a private plane to a private road transfer to having the lodge all to themselves with a full team of hospitality experts.

Feline Fields by Mantis

“If you want to go quickly, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” ~African proverb.

Remember a forgotten part of Botswana; come to Feline Fields by Mantis. Absolutely pristine, even the skies are barren of man-made flight. This vast Kalahari desert is alive with life. Feline Fields is as exclusive and remote as you can get. Share and capture memories that will last a lifetime when staying here.
