I had read previous comments and was concerned. I agree that the position is not pratcical (out of town) and the camp seems dusty, but the rooms are big, nice, and clean. Plenty of hot water, no complaints. more

We stopped here for a night on an Acacia tour through Botswana, it was our first campsite however we stayed in the Chalets there. The campsite isn't the best in the area as you will notice from the other reviews, however the chalets I found excellent, beds were comfy, plenty of space and a nice little courtyard. The activities we... more

If you think the rooms are bad then don't camp there!! This is definitely a campsite for overlanders. They pack the place to the rafters. We were there in winter. The shower water was always cold, and ran out often. Run down albultions that are in desperate need of a clean. They refill toilet paper once a day it seems,... more

After 8 days on the road, we arrived in Kasane expecting a River Lodge. We were camping in the dirt, the ablutions rarely had water (never mind hot), they were very dirty, ran out of toilet paper. Some river lodge this place is - you could not even get to the river. The campsites are right on the main road... more

Camped here for just 1 night. The grounds have so much possibility, but are very run down. Ablution facilities are ok - a little dirty compared to other grounds in Botswana. There is a small bar area. The campsite itself is right on the river & you can do river cruises in the afternoon. Lots of crocodiles, hippos & elephants... more

This family run lodge has a great vibe and although the river is at the highest level since 1958 a plan has been made for campers. more

As part of a Peregrine tour, we stayed one night at this hotel. Despite being in the middle of summer there was no air-conditioning and the rooms are absolutely stiffling and impossible to sleep in with such little air circulation - it was far more comfortable outside. The grounds are compromised of mud and whilst the hotel rooms are clearly... more

Was here on a tour - rooms have no ventilation or aircon - had no sleep at all - you will be miserable more

This could be a real 'gem' for people looking for decent budget accommodation in expensive Kasane. The food is great (but slow, slow, slow) and the ablutions are fine. Sadly, no effort is made to 'landscape' and so we slept in a disgusting sea of mud which could so easily have been avoided with grass or sand! It was horrible.... more
