An Insider's Take
'Perched on the edge of the Moremi Game Reserve, this intimate safari lodge offers front-row seats to one of Africa's most pristine wildlife theaters.' What's Special? The Khwai River forms a natural boundary between the Moremi Game Reserve and the Khwai Community Area, creating a unique ecosystem where massive elephant herds gather daily. The lodge's elevated position provides unobstructed views of this wildlife highway, while the nearby Chief's Island is famous for having some of the highest concentrations of big cats in Africa.
WhatAHotel! Pro-Tip: Book during the dry season (May-October) when animals concentrate around the permanent water sources, offering exceptional game viewing right from your private deck.
Don't Miss The legendary "elephant crossing" at sunset when hundreds of elephants wade across the Khwai River directly in front of the lodge. The nearby Dombo Hippo Pools also offer incredible photographic opportunities with resident hippo pods and crocodiles basking mere meters from your mokoro (traditional dugout canoe).
