The inspiration for the name Obesa Lodge comes from the Euphorbia Obesa, commonly known as the ‘African Hut’ which is indigenous to Graaff-Reinet.
Arriving at Obesa Lodge is as if you are at the end of a rainbow. ‘I like colours’ says the owner, Sonja Bouwer, with a smile. It is this simple philosophy that pervades the entire lodge. Each of Obesa’s accommodation units has been decorated according to various themes that have captured Sonja’s imagination and creativity. She clearly has lots of fun furnishing and painting units with names like Sterling, Spring Breeze, La Med, Jade, Scented Summer and City Chic. It is this sense of enjoyment that Sonja hopes will spread to her guests.
Obesa Lodge was not planned as a family holiday destination or resort. The owner wanted to provide comfortable, overnight accommodation for travelers, tourists and people working in the area. We therefore don’t allow any parties, get-together’s or conferences on our property unless this is pre-arranged with the owner.
The fact that Sonja has a ‘value for money’ approach and belief that all South Africans must be able to afford good quality accommodation has resulted in Obesa Lodge receiving coverage (without prior knowledge) in The Lonely Planet Travel Guide, Business Link Magazine and in the SAA Travel Magazine.
