BAINES’ CAMP
Set amongst the shady trees and water of the Okavango Delta, the small and intimate Baines' Camp features five luxurious suites set on elevated platforms in the tree line. Wooden decks offer expansive views over the permanent water of the Boro River and a lagoon teeming with life. The elevated suites feature a spacious bedroom , with softly draped fabrics adding the romantic touch of a bygone era. The four-poster beds are fully mobile, giving guests the choice of slumber under star laden skies. Avid astronomers will delight in stargazing from the privacy of their own deck.
This exclusive lodge is named after the famed nineteenth century explorer and artist, Thomas Baines. The main area features an oversize deck for outdoor dining and views over the permanent water of the lagoon, as well as a swimming pool for refreshing sunbathing.
This area, situated on a private concession neighbouring the Moremi, is superb for viewing all animal and bird species. Guests may explore by land and water, often into the night to discover nocturnal species. The permanent water of the camp will reveal a world of floating safaris, atmospherically silent at the gentle pace of a poled mokoro, or faster in a comfortable shaded motorboat. (Subject to water levels.) A myriad of waterways, feathery beds of papyrus, and animal species, large and small, are waiting to be discovered. Sometimes there is no better way to tune into the bush than on foot, and walking safaris is a speciality at Baines', with skilled, armed guides introducing the area’s natural wonders. The choice of activities will not end there. The unique and educational elephant interaction is available to guests at Baines’.
DELTA CAMP
Delta Camp, situated in the heart of the Okavango Delta, has offered understated luxury combined with personal service to a discerning clientele for over 30 years. The lounge and dining area form the central feature of the camp, with an extended deck offering spectacular views of the surrounding waterways and wildlife. The chalets, set into the indigenous island forest, are traditionally reeded, tastefully appointed and are en-suite with limitless hot and cold running water.
Activities are conducted by your own professional guide (a maximum of two guests per guide), a man of the swamp, born and bred. He has a mokoro (dug-out canoe) in which he will take you to nearby islands, where you will walk to view game and the spectacular landscape that is the Okavango. It might also be possible to visit his village, meet the elders and perhaps his family, should you so wish.

Kubu Lodge overlooks the Chobe River in the north-eastern corner of Botswana, 2km from the historic meeting place of four countries Botswana, Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe, only 9km from the Chobe National Park.

Honeymooners are amply catered for with secluded candle lit dining areas
The chalets have been uniquely designed following definitive market research into traveller's needs, encompassing a range of twin or double bedded options. They are constructed of teak and custom made canvas tenting and are raised well above ground level into the tree canopy with their balconies extending out over the river. They are linked by a winding over-head walkway so that our guests do not actually walk on the islands surface in order to protect the fragile riverine environment. Finishing is of an extremely high standard using imported fittings to compliment the natural feel of the construction materials used. All chalets are opulently finished and equipped with en-suite bathrooms, (ball and claw baths and separate shower), mini bar, large mosquito nets, ceiling fan and private safe. contact Jody@dumelabotswana.com
