Positive: Good vegetarian dinner! Good airco so we slept well.

Negative: No insect screens in the room, so no fresh air could enter without having a lot of bugs. Room was very heavily sprayed with repellent.

Summary: Good overnight stay between Maun and Chobe park

Positive: Helpful staff. Animals are able to be viewed from the deck. Comfortable bed. Laundry service.

Negative: The accommodation buildings are out of place and keeping with the bush. The headboards are not attached to the wall. No toilet door. The shower wet the bathroom floor. No signal in the room. I needed more drinking water during the night.

Summary: You can view game from the decks.

Positive: Close to nature and that's all

Negative: Our stay was unfortunately not what we expected. From the moment we arrived, there were countless rules and restrictions – even a big sign at the entrance listing them all, which was quite unwelcoming. What’s more frustrating is that none of these rules were mentioned during the booking process on Booking.com. One of the most inconvenient rules was the complete ban on eating or drinking in the rooms. We traveled with our camper, bringing our own food and even a small kitchen setup, thinking we could at least prepare our own meals since the listing mentioned an available kitchen. However, we were told this was not allowed unless we booked a camping spot, not a room. This critical detail wasn’t disclosed during the booking process. Adding to the frustration, the prices at the on-site restaurant were shockingly high. A small can of cola cost $8, and a simple meal of chicken, grains, salad, and pudding was $23. Thankfully, we found a picnic site just 300 meters from the entrance where we could finally prepare our own meals. Overall, we felt disappointed and a bit misled, and we wouldn’t recommend this place to travelers who value flexibility and transparent information.

Summary: Disappointing

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: Very well run lodge. Rooms are really nice. Staff are friendly, and helpfull. The owners engage in conversations with their customers and sharing good advice. Restaurant has really good food. Also nicely decorated. Very good 3 course dinner at night. It is a fixed menu, so no a la carte option. But they do consider allergies and probably also other diets. Breakfast and lunch packages are very good, and plenty. Apparently lunch and dinner except drinks were included if you book a room. Nice surprise. Room was nice, clean, and well equiped. Also our vehicle was cleaned. Very nice. Laundry is returned the same day. Very good. Be aware, wild animals do walk at the premises, we were greeted by a hyena on our way back from the restaurant to our room.

Negative: Just some minor things It would have be nice to be able to have breakfast before sunrise instead of a packed breakfast when going on a game drive, or receive the packed breakfast the evening before so you can go on a game drive early. The packed breakfast was good though! And we would have preferred a door to close the room's toilet.

Summary: Good place to stay if you enjoy a bit of comfort
