A new Lodge with 12 Chalet and 5 Campsite in Mababe on the way to Savuti from Maun. Directly after the Bridge over the Khwai River on left in 150 m. The lodge will be ready in the middle of Juli, but we had a very great stay at the campsite right now for two nights. We could use the great large Terrace with a amazing Pool and the wide view in the open Pan. The Campsite have hot water, power, Flashing Toilet , Braii area, Fireplace and Wood. The stuff is very friendly and helpful and the Owner Thys is a very great Guy. We had a Problem with our Tyres and he helped us perfectly.

We camped there on 30 June 2023. Pristine camp with every need catered for. Best ever swimming pool with views of waterbuck, impala, zebra and at prowling hyena at dusk. Highly recommended. Best dinner in Botswana

This lodge is a dream. It is in the middle of the bush. We had a room which is also beautiful. Wild life is right outside the door. The staff are super friendly. Breakfast was delicious. Thank you for the nice stay. We will be back! 😊

Excellent service! I would highly recommend this Campsite! The owners and their staff are very friendly people! They made the stay very special! The viewing deck is also special with a lot of animals.

Beautiful place. The lodge is currently still under construction, but it will be amazing when it's finished. The pool is right in front of the waterhole and the owner and his staff are super friendly and helpful!

An absolute tranquil experience! Perfect mix of bushveld ruggedness and 5-star luxury! Having an early dinner while watching elephant's walk past will be an experience I'll never forget and always treasure. Friendly and efficient staff at your beg and call willing to attend to your every whim. What an awesome experience to hear, and see, hyenas walking through the camp site as well as the purrs, grunts and growls of lions at night. I'll recommend this gem north of Maun to any, and every, person who needs a breath away from all the hustle and bussle of everyday life!

Fantastic place to camp! The sanitary facilities were clean and the swimming pool was fantastic! Would recommend this place to everyone. Even from the campsite you could see and hear different animals in the evening. If I ever go back to Botswana, I would definitely stay here again.
