KIlulu Lodge

Running a guest house in Randburg means managing load shedding schedules as carefully as breakfast times. KIlulu Lodge operates within the practical realities of Gauteng infrastructure: inverter systems that keep the lights on during power cuts, water storage for neighbourhoods on municipal supply restrictions, and air-conditioning that functions whether the grid is stable or not. These aren't luxury additions—they're the backbone of operation. The work involves understanding which suburbs face the worst outages, timing guest arrivals around maintenance windows, and maintaining generator discipline so neighbours aren't disturbed. It's about making sure guests experience comfort despite the circumstances that define living here, not in spite of them.
