Planter's Lodge is set in six acres of beautifully landscaped gardens. The Takoradi Golf Course (which overlooks the Atlantic Ocean) is a few minutes walk away and arrangements have been made so our guests can have a round of golf at their leisure, likewise a gym (this is a few minutes walk away), which our guests can also use. The British air force built Planter's Lodge for their flying officers in 1934 in Takoradi, in the Western Region of Ghana. It was later sold to a British company who used it as a hotel. Takoradi was the only harbour at that time in Ghana and British Overseas Airways Corporation had just a few flights from the capital, Accra, so almost anyone who travelled outside Ghana came to Takoradi to take the Elder Dempster vessels to Europe. A lot of people, children going to school, local business men and expatriates going on leave all stayed at the hotel and to this day, people still come to the hotel and reminisce about their journey by sea. A great part of the hotel has presently been restored. Even though Planter's Lodge is an African colonial fusion concept, the colonial buildings have been maintained and the 'new' addition is the swimming pool and the Bamboo Conservatory Bar.

A nice lodge located a few meters from Busua beach, near the reputed Busua Beach Hotel of Golden Beach chain;Nice bedroomsLocal tourist guide support (also from Accra, on request). If you like our guides can help you planning your trip around GhanaDay-trips organization:Day-trips on request: get to know many splendid beaches, visit the many colonial Forts along the coast (Butre, Elmina, Cape Coast, etc.), join the traditional feasts & celebrations rich in colours and typical costumesFurther activities:Percussion instruments lessons: local artist are willing to play with you for short sessions of Djambee and other typical instrumentsSurf: you can surf at Busua with local surf instructors (beginners) or at Princess (skilled surfers only) Still far from the main routes of international tourism Ghana can offer an unforgettable experience; friendly people, lush greenery, hot climate gently caressed by tropical breeze, wildlife reserves and enchanting beaches. Once British colony, since its independence (more than fifty years ago) Ghana has been one of the few politically stable realities in Africa, currently aimed to a robust development process thanks to its natural resources: gold (Ghana was once known as the "Golden Coast"), manganese and, recently, oilfields. From the agricultural point of view Ghana is one of the world's major importers for cocoa (the world's best quality), valuable timber, rubber, etc. English is the national language and its diffusion made the cohabitation among different ethnic groups easier, also considering that still nowadays each group has its own language (Ahanta, Fanti, and so on). Twi language, too, is still spoken (and taught at schools) by more than 7 millions inhabitants. Busua is a small fishing village in the Western Region; thanks to its marvellous beach it has become one of the most renowned resorts in Ghana. You will still find a lively fishing community and various kinds of accommodations, ranging from cheap 'chop bars' to the expensive restaurants and hotels.
The Hideout lodge is a place where you can spend a week or two to rest andenlight your soul, without spending too much money. You will have a good opportunity to find new friendship and get closer to the african culture.It's a perfect place to have as a basecamp, to reach the nearby area attractions in the Western Region of Ghana.
