The Bush-Spa is located in South Luangwa National Park on a private deck with views over the Mfuwe Lodge lagoon. Guests enjoying their safari experience can easily arrange a visit to the spa facility either during game drives, or just right after them. A relaxing holistic treatment is the ideal way to break up a tiring safari, with early morning and late afternoon activities often leaving ample time during mid day “siesta”. The setting is dreamy, on a secluded deck next to a lagoon that sees permanent heavy hippo traffic and a wide diversity of other animal visitors. This provides a unique soundtrack to your treatment, with the constant grunt and gurgle of hippo pods given a more musical backing by birdsong and antelope alarm calls.
The Bush-Spa menu changes constantly, as its focus lies on the use of local ingredients which are seasonal. With an extensive range of spa treatments from African, Eastern, and Western traditions will ensure that every need is catered to. In the selection of the products we confirm our commitment to create a truly unique African experience for our guest with a discerning appetite for natural beauty and true natural experiences. Set in the beauty of the indigenous bush in Zambia. The Bush-Spa Zambia in South Luangwa National Park, creates a sanctuary of pure simplicity for those seeking tranquility and rejuvenation of mind, body and soul.

Africa has abundance of plant life and at the Spa embrace this ancient, traditional therapeutic heritage. Taking indigenous remedies to the extreme, therapists follow African traditions by for instance using Luangwa spring mud to exfoliate before a deep cleanse with marula, cocoa and Zambian coffee and moisturizing with Aloe Vera infused cucumber wraps. Anything from in season African Macadamia cream body glows to firming and hydrating Kigelia Africana body wrap and anything in between.
Natural and local ingredients are already adapted to the land and its climate, and using these, make products more environmentally friendly while also helping the local economy. The aim is to create even more Zambian natural products using indigenous ingredients found in South Luangwa and other areas of Zambia. Truly giving the spa guests a piece of Zambia whilst enjoying treatments and a piece of this magnificent country to take home with them!
