Samode Safari Lodge MI Evaluation - Gold

Committed to eco-tourism, the Samode Safari Lodge uses natural materials and elements of regional art and architecture, with eco-friendly landscaping and water management systems.

It has been designed and built with the lightest possible environmental footprint. The aim was to create luxury in the most sustainable manner. Not only have no trees been cut for building the lodge, but new planting has also been done.

The adjoining villages of Mardari and Gohori are the inspiration for the architectural language of the Lodge. The walls are constructed with the traditional hand molded bricks and all the building material has been locally procured.

The Lodge uses solar energy and does extensive rain-water harvesting to recharge ground water levels.
