Romantic Accommodation in the Okavango Delta

Luxurious, secluded accommodation with sweeping views of wildlife and panoramic sunsets; bubble baths under the painted African night sky; an intimate, candle-lit dinner overlooking a lagoon ringing with the chorus of frogs and owls... Few places offer quite the romantic experience of the Okavango Delta.

While all the Delta's lodges are undoubtedly places to enjoy romance, there are a number of them that specialise in it. Whether you're honeymooning or celebrating 25 years of marriage, or just seeking to unwind and recapture a spark, the hypnotic magic of the Delta is certain to weave its charm.

We Recommend:

Sandibe Lodge - Far from other camps and located in a southeastern private concession, Sandibe has eight decadent rooms set in shady, secluded riverine forest. A large open boma forms the central point of the camp, its flickering fire and multitude of candles and lanterns providing soft, magical light. Game drives, boat and mokoro trips are part of the package in an area renowned for its great game viewing. A large staff complement enables a tailoring of activities around what the guests want, when they want it.

Little Mombo Camp - Hidden away from its main camp, Mombo, lies Little Mombo. Only three tents, each luxuriously furnished and raised off the ground, are available in this exclusive camp, where tall trees guarantee privacy. Each tent has its own swimming pool, choice of indoor or outdoor showers and private veranda from which to enjoy a private, candle-lit dinner. Located in the Moremi Game Reserve at the northern tip of Chief's Island, the game viewing in this area is perhaps the best in Botswana.

Xugana Island Lodge - Xugana's romantic location on a forested island beside a deep, glassy lagoon is hard to beat. Located in a private concession in the remote northern Delta, the camp is a true water-based one. Eight recently refurbished chalets are raised up on wooden decking and have private bathrooms. All have private decks overlooking the lagoon - the sunsets are sublime. Xugana prides itself on its approach to fine dining: sumptuous meals are served al fresco either in camp or at scenic locations nearby.
