The garden lodge , is a small hotel/lodge with a nice garden where the wild warthog like to come to visit . The owner and the staff are very helpful and friendly and like that guests get aquinted with each other in an friendley atmoshere at the dinertabel. the food was very nice . The lodge is also cousy and very clean. We feld very welcome. They also have beautiful sugarpots on the tabel. When we had our trip to the victora waterfalls we could leave our car behind. Is is a nice idea to leave it in good hands .And you know what happend : we could clime in a clean car when we returnd from our trip two days later. What a nice suprise. So if you are in kasane check if they have room (They als have nice familiy rooms).

Thank you from us all for your lovely comment. We are very pleased to hear you like your stay with us. After cleaning your car we were a bit worried you might not recognize it as yours!!! Hope to see one other time in our lodge. Greetings from all of us and the warthogs

The Garden Lodge was incredibly friendly and a lovely place to stay. The staff, led by managers Emily and Mark, went out of their way to help: for example, collecting delayed luggage from the airport and assisting in a search for a camera battery lost on a walk. The Lodge was comfortable and well placed for visiting the Chobe River and Chobe National Park. Wifi was, unfortunately, slow but fibre optic technology is due to arrive any day so this should change rapidly.
We had a lovely 10 day stay and thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Kasane.

When we saw you were coming to be with us for 9 nights, I must say we were a bit worried what to offer you all those days. But it turned out to be a piece of cake to have you and look after you, as you both such lovely guests. Hope you had a good journey down South. Would love to have you back one day.

During our 3 weeks trip in Namibia, Botswana & Zimbabwe its was definitely the best place where we stay. If you ask me why - is exclusive, is 5 stars place - not is special place due to owners and all staff which put special attention on you. They are create special atmosphere, they are always available, very open and helpful. They treat you on way that you feel as special person. We are spend with our family and friends 3 days in Garden Lodge and is was pity to leave. Location is for sure next plus for this lodge - very near to Chobe National Park, on property direct access to Zambezi river, and good place for trip to Victoria Falls. Everything you can in easy way organize in the lodge. From our side we definitely recommend this place to stay.

Room tip: Its only 10 rooms, important is to book this in advance

Have stayed at Garden Lodge twice and was impressed both times. Beautiful lawns, amazing staff, good food, I could go on and on. Make sure you eat dinner at the lodge, the family style meal is fantastic.
