We stayed here for 2 nights second week of November 2024 mid-way though a self-drive safari in Moremi and Chobe and it was the highlight of our trip!
The place is situated in a lovely location with great game drives around the surrounding area. It’s also on the doorstep to North Gate entrance if you have your own vehicle and wish to head into the park for the day.
The tents and general dining area was excellent, the food was even better. As many other reviews have stated, some of which I read during my own research, the food prepared there by the chef and her team really is something else.
The staff are also brilliant and will take care of every need you have. They are friendly, pleasant and genuinely want to see you have a good time. Upon arrival we had a punctured tyre, and despite this not really being an issue of the safari lodge the manager Mange came out when he saw me struggling trying to jack up the vehicle and for the next hour was on the ground with me (he basically did most of the work :) ) helping me get it fixed so we could get out on a game drive. Certainly something I won’t forget. Great guy to sit down with and chat to if you want to find out more about Botswana and the local area as he has a lot of experience around Moremi and is super friendly.
We didn’t do any of the game drives offered by the lodge, but based on the experiences of other guests we spoke with in the evenings they had many excellent encounters including finding a leopard not far from the lodge itself.
Overall a very well run and pleasant place to be, you will not be disappointed and we cannot wait to go back there.

The staff were extremely helpful assisting us to make contact with Mosu Safari Tours. Allowed our vehicle to park for the 2 nights we were on safari.
We stayed only one night in the Hotel (arriving from a safari) and for this purpose the Hotel was an ideal place to stay. Clean, beautiful and quiet rooms, overlooking the (now dry) riverbed. In the immediate vicinity of the Hotel is a pleasant restaurant (the breakfast is also served there), - so in th evening we did not have to go anywhere...
A simple but well maintained lodge at the outskirts of Maun, not possible to go there without a car. Great for a night before driving to or coming back from the national parks. Excellent value for money. Small, simple restaurant with healthy and properly priced breakfast. Good airconditioning, also for heating in winter.
We felt so welcome at Waterfront lodge Maun. Welcomed by Ray and Lech👏😎 Nothing was too much trouble - from laundry to booking restaurants and taxis👏 Breakfasts were fabulous, thank you.
Lovely setup, lush and green, ideal place to start or end your safari.
After a disaster with our transport to our other accommodation, the very kind Maun Lodge driver reduced us from the airport and offered to help us get a taxi. After not being able to contact our other accommodation we decided to stay at Maun Lodge and also book to stay there when we returned from our safari trip in CGKR too. Our whole experience was very good, and we felt very well looked after. The food was good in the restaurant and the rooms were very comfy!
I had an incredible three-night stay at the island safari lodge! The highlight for me was undoubtedly the delectable food; the chef's skills were truly remarkable. The staff, from Tumo the bartender and the attentive waitstaff to the diligent housekeeping team, made my stay exceptionally comfortable. The rooms were not only cozy but also impeccably clean. Overall, a fantastic experience that left me thoroughly satisfied.
Having stayed at over 50 lodges in Southern Africa, I can say that this was the best location ever for elepehant spotting. We had elephants (1 to 15 at a time) all day at the waterhole a few meters in front of our balconny, from 8 a.m. to late in the evening (+ hyena, lioness, honey badgers, lots of warthogs and plenty of birds)
