Hosts built The Garden Lodge with the specific intention of offering personal service to a small number of guests. There are many fine lodges in the area, however most have over 100 beds; Garden Lodge has 24. The lodge has eight bedrooms (4 doubles and 4 family size), each with its own bathroom and private verandah overlooking the Chobe River. It is truly a garden lodge. The combination of unlimited water and constant sunshine allows hibiscus, frangipani, bougainvillea, banana and paw paw to grow in profusion. Guests love the garden and the prolific birds attracted to the flowers and fruits. The lounge and dining room are furnished in teak and wicker. All decor comes from Botswana or one of the surrounding countries. Guests have the choice of sitting inside under the thatched roof or outside by the swimming pool.

Guests have the choice of either a Continental or English breakfast. The lunches are a buffets with a choice of hot dishes, salads, cold meat and cheeses. Dinner is a set menu, however, our kitchen will happily cater for guest's individual requirements. Generally, guests sit at one table, which allows them to meet each other and often the conversation continues well after the meal has ended! The bar is upstairs and overlooks the Chobe River. It is informally known as the Map Room due to the large number of maps hung on the walls. The Garden Lodge, in Kasane, on the banks of the Chobe River, in Botswana's far north is 70 km from Victoria Falls, 16 km from Kazungula (the meeting point of Botswana, Zimbabwe, Namibia and Zambia) and 300 km from the Okavango Delta. Chobe National Park, with its estimated 70 000 elephants, huge herds of buffalo and daily sightings of lion is only 2 km away.
