Chobe Savanna Lodge
About Chobe Savanna Lodge
Nestled on the northern banks of the Chobe River in Namibia’s remote Eastern Zambezi Region, Chobe Savanna Lodge offers an exclusive, water-based safari experience. The lodge is uniquely positioned to overlook the vast, wildlife-rich floodplains of Chobe National Park’s iconic Puku Flats, providing guests with a serene and intimate escape far from the bustling tourist hubs of Kasane. Each of the lodge's thirteen thatched chalets is designed to capture the essence of the riverine landscape, featuring private decks that offer panoramic, 270-degree views of the surrounding wetlands. With a focus on water-based exploration, guests can immerse themselves in the rhythms of the river, encountering large herds of elephants, buffalo, and hippos, all while enjoying the refined comfort and warm hospitality of this secluded sanctuary.
Why we like it
