The best option if you are visiting Chobe
It was a great experience. Super great location, the service was phenomenal and I really felt like I was among great friends. The best sunset is from the pool deck...at night we were visited by herds of elephants and hippo and it is just magical to watch them so close. The food....oh the food....it was incredible! I super recommend this beautiful lodge if you are visiting Chobe

Comfortable Zimbabwe outpost
This resort is located about 20 km south from the Botswana/Zimbabwe border crossing. Comfortable and spacious tent. No air conditioning but you do have a large floor fan. Was very disappointed that we did not see any wildlife from the lodge. We reserved dinner with the hosts and it was very good. A few mosquitoes but not bad. Staff and owners were friendly. I would stay here again if driving through the area.

Hi John Thank you for your review. Just to correct you we are 20km from the Botswana/Namibian border crossing not Zimbabwe. Unfortunately we cannot control animal movement as they move around freely with no restrictions and as the bush is still very wet they have not started coming down to drink at our waters edge yet. We would love to have you stay again sometime Kind regards Anton & Amelia

Great Lodge overlooking Chobe River. Must stay!
Great lodge directly on the Chobe River and flood plain. We stayed in a lodge room which is actually a fine "tent" style complete with private bath / shower and kitchen. The rather large "tent" was on it's own elevated platform overlooking the Chobe River flood plain.we enjoyed dinner and drinks while watching the sunset. Glorious! And for added fun a Wart hog was a resident immediately below our deck. As it is at the edge of the Chobe game reserve Elephant were regularly seen on the road. Gated and quite safe the lodge also offers space for caravans and campers. Exceptional value. Top notch facility. Fine restaurant and a bar are also within the lodge. Say hello to Anton, the owner and the attentive staff. WiFi.

Tolle Lage und ein beeindruckender Ausblick! Für afrikanischen Standart sehr saubere und gepflegte Zelte. Nette Gastgeber, sehr gutes Preis-Leidtungs-Verhältnis, ideal geeignet für Ausflüge in den Chobe-NP

Sehr freundliche und engagierte Besitzer.Da der Strom von abends bis zum Morgen ausfiel, war die Dusche kalt,aber der Kuehlschrank warm.Die empfohlene Bootstour mit BigSam war super.Vorteil der Lodge ist die Lage am Ngoma Gate,wo nicht so ein Andrang ist wie auf der Sedudu Seite.

Liked: Staff & service
Die Zufahrt war katastrophal. Es wurde eine neue Teerstraße gebaut. Den Baulärm haben wir Tag und Nacht gehört. Wir hatten, weil ausgebucht, leider nur ein Wohnzelt auf dem Campingplatz bekommen. Es war o.k. Nur die Waschhalle war furchtbar. Es wurde nie gereinigt. Alles andere war gut: Sehr nette Besitzer, gutes Essen, nette Mitreisende, viele Vögel und Affen.

Hi Matti Thank you for your review. Not sure what you mean by catastrophic, it is a sandy driveway as our lodge is in the bush. We were busy repairing some things and tried to make as little noise as possible and finished off by 4pm. No construction or maintenance work is done at night as our staff all go home. Our ablutions are cleaned twice a day by a dedicated member of our housekeeping staff and this is the first complaint we have had. We have had a lot of reviews mentioning how clean everything is. We value all reviews and will have a look at the things you mentioned, Kind regards Anton & Amelia
