Nice and clean The room was to the standard I expected Location was central to my activities! The service provision was top notch. The level of attention to detail during our ordering of breakfast and the freshness thereof will make me to always use these facilities. But you should work on providing gym activities I was forced to take a road workout during my stay.

It is a secluded haven of tranquility nestled in a grove of mature riverine trees on the bank of the Thamalakane River. The rambling lodge has an idyllic setting and is committed to service excellence. It is a delightful place to come home to after a day spent exploring.

LOVELY!

i have stayed at the TRL four or five times. I have travelled to Botswana 5 times in the past 10 years. I have read the "bad" review on the TRL which was posted by a visitor who was there in October 2021. I was there in September 2021. We stayed 2 nights. The TRL has always been lovely when I've been there. The rooms (the "babblers') have always been clean, well laid out, and fresh. The food has always been good. I have never encountered a rude or uncaring staff member. The reception that I have received every time I have stayed at the TRL has been welcoming, polite and helpful. I have always had help taking my luggage to my room (I have never had to ask... it is simply done as a matter of course.) The pool is not large, but it has always been clean. If I have ever needed something, the staff has been quick to respond and provide. The negative review I read prompted me to write this review. Frankly, when I read that review I wondered if we were talking about the same lodge. I love the TRL and it has been and likely always will be my first choice for accommodation in Maun.

Phazama Farm

pleine nature et tout confort, le top !

Reviewed By aubryde

vous aimez la nature et le calme, pas d'hésitation ! Superbe expérience en famille chez Katja et Peter ! il faut quitter Maun et s'enfoncer en 4x4 vers le delta pour découvrir ce très bel endroit. Tout le confort que l'on peut attendre (et même plus !) au milieu de la nature. Magnifique logement, superbes vues, rapport qualité prix excellent. Pas de restauration sur place mais ce n'est pas un problème, il faut juste le prévoir et vos hôtes vous alertent bien sur ce point. prévoir quelques jours pour bien profiter. Merci au voisin Adrian qui peut vous organiser des game ou sorties mokoro, ça vaut le coup ! beaux souvenirs, merci à tous

Tshima Bush Camp

A genuine bush experience close to the convenience of Maun and the stunning beauty of the Okavango Delta. Tshima Bush Camp is a small, intimate camp close to Maun, the iconic safari town of Botswana. It is situated on 30 hectares of natural bush with direct access to the Nhabe river. Our Meru style tents provide comfort and lots of privacy. Walking trails invite guests to explore the area. You may find duiker, aardvark and a huge variety of birds. From time to time, elephants pass by as well and hippos inhabit the river. The camp serves as an excellent spot to spend the night while travelling between various treasures in Botswana. Furthermore, it is a perfect base for exploring nearby natural treasures such as the world-famous Okavango Delta, Moremi Game Reserve and Nxai Pan National Park. The village of Komana is located close by and can be explored to get a glimpse of Botswana village life. Tshima Bush Camp is easy to reach via a good quality tar road, just a 25-minute drive from Maun.

Fantastic experience

Reviewed By robbeh933

Reminiscing about our trip last year we realized that we forgot to write a review about this wonderful place. In summary: - amazing hosts with a lot of experience and knowledge - excellent food (but really excellent food), and the breakfast basket served on your private balcony is delicious - clean and comfortable lodge - ... It is such a welcoming place. Definitely worth stopping and good connection to Moremi (for which they organized a trip for us). Hope that we can revisit this place again in the future.

When in Maun then Island Safari Lodge

Reviewed By BushmanPete

My daughter and I stayed twice durig our our week long visit to the okavango Delta. For us it was the perfect place to base our visit. It's location in a small nature reserve on the banks of the river and yet in close proximity to Maun is hard to beat. Accommodation in the huts has everything I'd expect from a good down to earth African lodge - nothing pretentious but still very clean, spacious and comfortable. Excellent value for money. After a long drive a refreshing swim in the pool, a beautiful walk in the reserve and finally a cold beer and a tasty meal overlooking the river. What more do you need! But the best was to come. Ours was a spontaneous visit so we arrived by road with nothing really planned or booked beforehand. In no time at all they helped us plan and then book what then proved to be a simply amazing and wonderful experience in the delta. Thank you Britt and Sean for making a dream come true. Without doubt the highlight of our road trip through Botswana and Namibia. I sincerely hope this will not be our first and last visit to the Okavango.

The pictures are all lies. The showers are dirty, walls and curtains are stained. Beds are old and noisy. Towels are old. Everything is just below standard and poorly maintained. Much much better places to stay at just down the road at the same price and less. Room was filled with mosquitos. Furniture and fixture sare old and hortible looking. Looks like a down town room.
