My husband and I arrived at Sandibe by helicopter (what an amazing view of the delta and terrain). We were met by Aaron and Gosh (but we really didn't know who they were - till much later in the trip - 2 asst mngrs). Since we had just left an amazing &Beyond experience at Nxbega we had high hopes. We... More

Because the animals are wild and the territory is huge, there is a certain amount of luck in what you actually see. We were very lucky, and from our arrival at the airstrip we seemed to see something around every corner. Of the three &Beyond sites that we visited on this trip (Sandibe, Nxabega & Savute), Sandibe had the most... More

Warm welcome on arrival followed by evening game drive, we saw lions stalking a giraffe, playful cubs, and a highlight of two brother lions who were the dominant local males. One wandered into the lodge area as we were having breakfast one morning. Our cabin was very comfortable, I liked the outside shower, although it must be a bit chilly... More

We stayed here as part of our honeymoon safari trip for 3 nights. The service was excellent and the staff could not do enough for us. When they found out it was our honeymoon they set up a special candle-lit private dinner one night for us on the boat jetty, which was really sweet. Being situated on a private concession... More

Our group of 15 stayed here as our first stop in the Okavanga Delta. Wonderful welcome and very nice camp. The cabins were very clean and luxurious, the food excellent and the service first rate. Our wildlife viewing was beyond our expectations. Being in a large preserve allowed us to explore at will, following the sound of a roaring male... More

We transferred to Sandibe from at Beyonds Nxabega Lodge so our approach highlighted just how beautiful the entire terrain is and how lightly Sandibe marks the landscape. It was barely visible from the air and only when we were incredibly close were we able to make out some of the buildings hidden in the Wooded glade where it stands. I... More

We stayed at this wonderful lodge as part of a photographic safari. We loved our stay here, from the moment we first saw the safari vehicles waiting at the airstrip to pick us up, to the time we waved goodbye. On first arrival into the lodge we were greeted with a song from all the staff, ice cold face cloths... More

I had a great experience at Sandibe. Due to certain circumstances, I ended up being the only person in my vehicle on 4 of my 6 game drives (I was traveling solo). Still, I was treated like we had a full house in our vehicle. My guide and tracker, Shaka & Bring, were very good and quite knowledgeable. I never... More

We enjoyed our stay at Sandibe very much. The staff was very attentive and helpful. Our room was rustic but protected from the elements, and there was wildlife wandering between the cabins to add a sense of realism to our stay in the bush. The staff escorted us everywhere but we felt safe at all times. Onka and two others... More

Sandibe is an unfenced beautiful lodge on the edge of a channel in the Delta. We loved elephants roaming through dinner as the lodge is unfenced and having to be escorted to our rooms! Our guides, Hammer and Gee were fantastic and enabled us to track and see hyena, elephant, lion, leopard, cheetah, serval, jennet, wildebeest, hippo, eland, impala, waterbuck,... More
