"beautiful location"
2 nights Arrived 26 Aug 2009
"I remember some debate over booking this one. It was our only stop in Botswana.
the location is lovely. this had one big plus for us....it was our only stop where we were able to eat with Botswana 'locals' also staying here...everywhere else we were on our own or with tourists primarily German, Italian and S. African. the rooms were fine but did feel slightly in need of a makeover......it felt like the owners were running out of puff. nevertheless the hospitality was good and nicely non invasive.
of course this is a quiet location after the hurly burly of Etosha. maybe Botswana is a more relaxed country than Namibia?" See all these reviews: 12n in Namibia; 2n in Botswana
