Ok by

The accommodation is not great but the gardens and surrounding area are stunning. Our hosts made us feel welcome and gave us a beautiful river cruise. We will go back.

Very nice by

Hard to find in the dark, but the facilities were OK. Very nice people to work with!

Nice Family Chalet by

Wonderful Location, helpful People

One of our favourites by

We wish we had booked more days at Shankara rather than Kwando, where we stayed right after. Lovely, right on the Okavango, possibility of tiger fishing...Amazing, welcoming, gracious hosts.

Lovely lush lawns and shade from the trees makes for a great camping spot. Bathrooms were not my best but I'm squeamish so the bug/spider situation was a bit hectic for me.

Would definitely recommend but make sure you arrive with all supplies as they are not close to any shops, though they do sell ice and wood on site.
