POLOKWANE – Guests stared in awe when they were welcomed by a sword dancer at the official opening of Baobab Leisure Lounge at Bolivia Estate on Friday evening.
This facility is a dream come true for owner Jannie van Waveren and his former business partner, the late Dawie Botes and promises to be a great attraction for visitors with a desire to just relax for a drink or make use of some of the five-star facilities offered.
Baobab Leisure Lounge offers a fully-stocked bar and a cocktail bar as well as a gym with rest rooms and a sauna and steam room for those who seriously want to relax.
The pool deck has a braai area and an outside seating area and the sunken boma in the centre of the facility will be very popular.
Van Waveren’s friend for five decades, Solly Hassen addressed guests and said the Baobab has a very long lifespan and that he is sure that the hangout will also live for long.
“I have no doubt that this venture will be a great success because Jannie van Waveren has proven to be an adventurer who knows to delegate to the right people and not interfere where it is not necessary,” he said.
According to general manager Chrezanne Dunkley, the Baobab Leisure Lounge will be open every day of the week from 08:00 until 22:00 and can also be reserved for small and medium functions in addition to the function and conference facilities that are still available at Bolivia Estate.
