Chobe Marina Lodge - A 4 star game lodge situated on the banks of the Chobe River in Botswana

I will certainly recommend the lodge to others.

I just returned from a week at the lodge as part of the Sustainable Wildlife Management meeting. I wanted to write to you to commend your staff. From the front office, to the dining rooms and bars, to the grounds keepers, and the cleaning crews all showed exceptional professionalism and attention to customer service.

I want to particularly acknowledge Poloko and Kaiko at the front office, and Tebogo in the small bar. All three attended to the needs of the SWM team with courtesy, and grace, making our time at the lodge something extra special. I would also like say that DC our guide on the evening boat trip did a great job, as did Presley who met us at the Kasane airport. I will certainly recommend the lodge to others.

GUEST REVIEWS

Some of our Guest Experiences.

“Chobe Marina staff was our best vacation choice. Everything was on point. Food, activities, friendly yet professional staff, luxurious accommodation, beautiful place, serenity of nature, we could go on and on. Our guides for both the boat cruise and game drive were the best. So professional, well trained. I will go back again as I couldn't get enough of the place, I promise myself. Thank you Chobe Marina.”

GUEST REVIEW

“Great stay. The hotel has been renovated recently, Kasane is magic, wonderful boat trips and game drives... an abundance of animals. Great service in the hotel, lovely rooms and great for families. Breakfast was nice and fresh every day, lots of fruit too.”
GUEST REVIEW

“Our tour group stayed here for two nights. The setting is completely in keeping with the location on the Chobe River - individual thatched huts, mosquito netting around the beds, impeccably landscaped grounds. Also, our group went on early morning safaris but breakfast was waiting for us when we returned - served until 10 a.m. The lodge also offers pontoon boat cruises to view wildlife on the Chobe River. Staff were welcoming and polite; you couldn't ask for more!”
GUEST REVIEW

“A warm welcome we received on arrival with dance troupe entertainment and a glass of ice tea. Check in process took less than 10 minutes for 25pax. Though it was my first time visiting, the directions to the hotel were clear and we never got lost. The rooms were so calming with TV, air cons and Wi-Fi. I enjoyed the Wi-Fi more since we were all connected to our families regardless of distance apart.”
