Facilities
Your One & Only!
We have designed a swimming pool befitting of our green status. Filtered by means of plants and a bed of gravel enjoy a chlorine free dip alongside the life-giving Chobe river on its journey to the Zambezi as it creates one of the seven natural wonders of the world, the Victoria Falls.
Family & Other Animals
We try to maintain a chemical free zone from treatments on wooden surfaces, choosing natural oils and plant extracts to ‘green paints’ on walls and biodegradable laundry detergents, kitchen products and soaps etc. This includes our insect patrol consisting of a number of chickens who take pest control upon themselves by nibbling on unsuspecting bugs!

OUR REVIEWS
What our quests say:
If you're looking for a great get away or a beautiful fun filled honeymoon I would definitely recommend. So worth it
Serene, very extremely beautiful and luxurious, the rooms are gorgeous, the interior design is amazing. The location is out of this world, you can interact with animals during your walks up and down the resort. Definitely great for honeymoons

Wonderful Lodge- just far away from the National Park
We had a lovely stay at Chobe Bakwena Lodge.
Rooms were excellent- we had a tree top room which had wonderful decor, a huge bathroom including outdoor shower and it never ran out of hot water. Super comfortable bed and was quite at night. They also did our washing (5 pieces a day) which was super helpful as we had been travelling for over a week. Read more...

A safari lodge which delivers on its promise
Don’t let the drive to the lodge put you off - once inside the gates it’s a little piece of paradise. The staff are so friendly and will make sure you’re well looked after. The room exceeded our expectations. Very spacious and felt just like a “safari lodge”. We slept so well there and the bed was perfect and large. Read more ...

Tree house on safari
Excellent service and food. We stayed in a comfortable tree house that had all the amenities. Great game drives with a knowledgeable guide. Animal sightings were amazing. The view from the restaurant is not the best. Staff made sure you were well looked after.
