Welcome To Island Safari Lodge
Enjoying the panoramic vista, the beautifully finished all-wood bar
and lounge, and the adjacent restaurant are perfect venues for wine
drinking, dining and just chilling out. The large river-front paved
patio lends a cafe-style to the leisure area for alfresco entertainment

Accommodation at Island Safari Lodge
With newly refurbished comfortable and affordable accommodation and a well
equipped camping site, Island is the perfect place to launch your attack
on Botswana's Wilderness Areas.
Chalets
The chalets are dressed in cool tones, keeping the interior light and
airy, while rich, indigenous custom-made furniture lends a sophisticated
air. Guests find the quiet hum of the air conditioner an absolute delight
in the summer months, while the unobtrusive television adds to all-round
comfort. The en-suite bathrooms feature the quirky but luxurious addition
of a double-headed shower, as well as commode and a two-basin vanity set
against a wall to wall mirror.

Camping
The camp grounds are sprawled alongside the Thamalakane River and each
site is differentiated by a shady copse of trees - not only providing
shade but a welcome perch for the prolific birdlife. The serene, spacious
sites have access to a centralized braai area, swimming pool, localised
plug points as well as hot water ablution facilities.

Island Safari Lodge Amenities and Facilities
Nostalgic bar and restaurant patrons should be in high spirits knowing
that the popular climbing pole still stands tall in the pub - while first
time visitors can look forward to the adventure that lies ahead as well
as the much sought after trophy awarded to those who make it to the top
and back down again in one piece.
The restaurant features a diverse a la carte menu with memorable meals
including the 'elephant's leg' lamb shank and the 'not for the faint hearted'
Island Burger. To beat the heat, the lodge offers a choice of two swimming
pools: the smaller of the two temptingly close to the bar and the larger
one situated near the campsite. Island Safari Lodge and Campsite, established
in 1973, is situated just 12 km North of Maun Airport along the Thamalakane
River.
What To Do at Island Safari Lodge
Bird-life is prolific throughout the year and with the diverse vegetation,
our experienced guides are not too challenged when it comes to providing
tickers with the opportunity to sight both the rarely seen and the equally
beautiful 'little brown jobs' within the area. This activity is best undertaken
in the early morning or late afternoon and is the perfect 'gap filler' for
guests on the move.
