We were so happy to see all the improvements (upgrades) they did to this wonderful lodge.

Simply an amazing place! Friendly staff, Missy, Dee and the night guard were so helpful. Beautiful view of the river, abundant bird life, clean ablutions, hot water, good quality firewood available at 60 pula. We paid 215 pula per person for camping.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Grand camping au bord de la rivière Okavango..assez ombragé
Toilettes, petite piscine, restaurant, bar.
Un seul gros problème,la journée proposée pour la somme de 210 pulas p p avec électricité alors que celle ci fonctionne 2 à 3 h par jour
La responsable essaie au maximum de nous arranger, mais le problème est récurent et la direction ne semble pas vouloir palier à ce problème..
En résumé prix excessif pour un camping sans électricité.

New price 2019: 220p. They have a new chef, so the burger is warm and the chips are decent. No other changes

Nice campsite on the river. The view upstairs on the bar is fine. But ask for the complet price. Yesterday they said 150ppn and this morning we paid 178 ppn + two taxes then I never heard before ( + 42pp val + 10pp Bed levy). Total price for 2 pers. = 468 pula. Very expensive for what it was !!!!!I tell them that They don’t give the good information. But they don’t recognize it. Unfortunately.

This was our 2nd choice, as we could not stay at Guma with the dog. Ablutions are a bit down, the place has seen better days. Now 180 Pula pp

Very expensive camping at 167p per night! Wifi costs 50p extra. Meals are around 120p so I opt for a cheeseburger. The burger was cold and the chips were horrible: cold and half-raw. 75p.
Make sure you get to choose a spot at the river camp, because I was shown only the Boma camp which has no views and looks awful. I had to ask about the river camp. River view is nice and there are electric outlets and standpipes. Ablutions are indeed basic but clean enough and the shower is hot. There are two tiny pools.

Dusty campsite which appears to have seen better days. Some sites on the river front looking out onto reed beds. Ablutions were basic, have also seen better days but at least the water is hot. A number of overland trucks when we visited. Nice bar area serving food. Bring mozzie repellent!! P150 pppn, P50 for wood, expensive for what it is!!

Dusty campground with a nice bar area but the personal is not very motivated.

Funktionale Unterkunft, einfach und rustikal geführt. Burger an der Bar sind nicht schlecht. Schöner Ausblick auf den Okavango River, gibt jedoch viele Mücken durch das fast stehende Gewässer. Eigenes Toilettenpapier nicht vergessen.
