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 ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/14332AACB0D61E605701657D721D51D9B5384FD21578319667456.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Paula Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Till, Berlin 29 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 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 ##### Till Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 23 May 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service 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. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in May 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Matti 12 Nov 2018 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. ##### Matti Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### StefanoeDaniela, Milano 1 Oct 2018 Liked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort Tende confortevoli a due passi dal fiume, Discreta colazione e cena.

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. ##### John Stayed 1 night in Jul 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### PAUL LUC 3 Jun 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Étape très sympathique Le cadre est magnifique le chalet est une tente tout confort avec vue+++ sur le fleuve et les animaux. Expérience très dépaysante et très reposante possibilité de cuisiner et restaurant tout à fait à la hauteur! Camping au même endroit . ##### PAUL LUC Stayed 1 night in May 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathleen 14 Apr 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 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. ##### Kathleen ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Lakeside Hotels in Eastern Dolomites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Eastern-Dolomites-Hotels-Lakeside-Hotel.0-0-d6141206-tlakesidehotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [City London Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-Bridge-Hotel-London.h4472945.Hotel-Information) > > [Ditlhapi Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Shakawe-Hotels-Ditlhapi-Guest-House.h16021933.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Bishopbriggs](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Bishopbriggs-Hotels.s50-0-d6132157.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Papouis Protaras Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paralimni-Hotels-Papouis-Protaras-Hotel-Ex-Smartline-Protaras.h1682743.Hotel-Information) > > [Aparthotels Fuengirola](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fuengirola-Apart-Hotels.d5775-aaApartHotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Quebecs](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Leeds-Hotels-Quebecs.h534039.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Hotel Belfast](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Belfast-Hotels-Jurys-Inn-Belfast.h2752.Hotel-Information) > > [Begonville Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marmaris-Hotels-Begonville-Hotel.h1789378.Hotel-Information) > > [Villas Dublin](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dublin-Villas.d178256-aaVillas.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Holiday Club Kuusamon Tropiikki](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kuusamo-Hotels-Holiday-Club-Kuusamon-Tropiikki.h63511.Hotel-Information) > > [Luna Park Hotel Yoga & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Malgrat-De-Mar-Hotels-Luna-Park-Hotel-Yoga-Spa-3.h1382699.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Barnstaple](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Barnstaple-Hotels.d4560.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Faraway Follies](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wrexham-Hotels-Faraway-Follies.h16247043.Hotel-Information) > > [Marea Valamar Collection Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porec-Hotels-Valamar-Collection-Marea-Suites.h36261984.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gaborone-Hotels-Travelodge.h12064519.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Bellagio](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Bellagio-Hotels.s50-0-d6023808.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Exeter (EXT) to Vienna (VIE)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ext/vie/exeter-to-vienna) > > [Flights from Multan (MUX) to Manchester (MAN)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/mux/man/multan-to-manchester) > > [Flights from Dublin (DUB) to Granadilla de Abona (TFS)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/dub/tfs/dublin-to-tenerife) > > [Flights from Cardiff (CWL) to Málaga (AGP)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/cwl/agp/cardiff-to-malaga) > > [British Airways](https://www.expedia.co.uk/British-Airways-Flights.cBA.Travel-Guide-Airlines) ### Cars > [Car hire near Longleat Safari and Adventure Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Longleat-Safari-And-Adventure-Park.d6157342.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Activities > [Things to do in Ballymoney](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Ballymoney.d6126735.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Gujarat Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gujarat.d6049929.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Lakshadweep Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lakshadweep.d6049937.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General > [Visit Preston](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Preston.dx5661) > > [Visit Pier Head](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Liverpool-Pier-Head.dx6336705)
