The place is just perfect if you are looking to be part of nature, yet have amazing service and great safari accommodations, that is pretty much off the grid. Perfect for walking safaris with knowledgable guides and if you are looking to unplug. Did I say that the hosts/staff is excellent!!!!

We spent three nights here as part of a 41-day Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe trip.

The stay here starts with a boat ride from the airport and a welcome song from the staff as we arrived. We had a cabin that overlooked the river and was visited by an elephant right outside our door. The room were basic but clean and fit beautifully with the surroundings.

We had excellent outings with highly knowledgeable guides. We had the same guides throughout our stay which helped to keep continuity and make sure we had diverse experiences. We had both walking safaris and boat trips. We really enjoyed learning about the birds and had a great time challenging ourselves with the guides testing us. The guides made it a point to sit with us at meals to continue make us feel welcome.

The managers were our first and only black lodge managers on our entire trip. We really enjoyed talking with them. They were excellent and were always around while we were in the lodge.

The food was better than most lodges we have stayed at in Africa. They had great cooked vegetables and interesting desserts.

The gift store included crafts made by the staff. You could tell that the staff was more of a family than other places we have stayed.

This is really in the middle of nature itself. At night the elephants walk around among the bungalows. You travel in the delta by motor boats and sometimes with "mokoros" (traditional canoes). Chances are that you will see many animals. The food is very good and the service fine.
