Sandibe Okavango Safari Lodge

This striking lodge is a world away from the traditional tented camp. Sculpted from beautifully pale wood, it mimics a pangolin’s scales and curves with its contemporary design. Despite this eye-catching architecture, there is little doubt that Sandibe Safari Lodge is fully immersed in the delta, with trees erupting through its decks and wildlife wandering between the suites.

Located in the heart of the Okavango Delta, it sits within a private concession that borders the renowned Moremi Game Reserve. The 11 spacious suites look out over a clear-water channel, behind which the landscape is dotted with palm islands and eroded termite mounds. With permanent water close by, as well as drier plains, the area is perfect for exploration on land and by boat.
