Where in Africa shall we go?

An Exquisite Eco-Friendly Sanctuary in Kasane
Nestled on the serene banks of the Chobe River in the charming town of Kasane, Chobe Bakwena Eco Lodge offers discerning travelers an exceptional blend of luxury and sustainability. Strategically located near the confluence of four African nations—Botswana, Zambia, Zimbabwe, and Namibia—this owner-managed lodge provides unparalleled access to the rich biodiversity of the Chobe National Park.

The lodge features fifteen exquisitely designed chalets, each constructed with a commitment to ecological principles and traditional African aesthetics. Guests can choose from ten Riverine Chalets, including a Family Chalet and a Honeymoon Chalet, all nestled along the riverfront amidst indigenous forest. Additionally, there are five elevated Treetop Chalets, offering a unique vantage point enveloped in a lush tree canopy. Each chalet is thoughtfully appointed with air conditioning, both indoor and outdoor showers, and expansive shaded decks, providing a harmonious blend of comfort and nature.

Culinary experiences at Bakwena Lodge are a celebration of African fusion cuisine, inspired by traditional Setwana flavors. Meals are crafted from ethically sourced ingredients and served in the lodge's inviting restaurant, where guests can also enjoy freshly baked homemade bread—a house specialty. The Rain Tree Bar, overlooking the Chobe River, offers a perfect setting for sundowners, while the eco-friendly swimming pool, filtered naturally by plants and gravel, provides a refreshing respite.

A hallmark of Bakwena Lodge is its dedication to sustainable tourism. The lodge is constructed using locally sourced materials, eschewing harmful chemicals, and emphasizing eco-friendly practices throughout its operations. This commitment extends to the use of natural oils and plant extracts for treatments, biodegradable products for cleaning and laundry, and even an innovative pest control system employing chickens to manage insects naturally.
