Thamalakane River Lodge

Thamalakane River Lodge offers you an idyllic stay by the gentle Thamalakane River in northern Botswana. It’s located about twenty minutes north of Maun enroute to the Okavango Delta. Sandy paths meander through well-tended gardens under a canopy of riverine forests. Rest in beautiful ensuite stone-and-thatch chalets, some of which boast private splash pools. Admire the safari chic décor featuring linen and artifacts with African motifs. If you’re feeling adventurous, opt for a private tent at a campsite further away in the wilderness! In your free time, laze in the uniquely-shaped swimming pool, and observe hippos wade past reeds while crocodiles catch their feed. Swap anecdotes with fellow travelers as you sip on sundowner cocktails at the wooden topped bar and lounge. Fringed by a pond around a terraced wooden deck, the in-house restaurant wears a romantic look. Try the delicious chef’s specials paired with a selection of fine wines.
