The Lodge
Chobe Game Lodge
Chobe Game Lodge stands on the bank of the Chobe River inside Chobe National Park. Being in the park means the morning drives leave as soon as the gates open, and the afternoon drives stay out until the park closes after sunset.
High arches, quarry-tiled floors and barrel-vaulted ceilings keep the lodge cool, and the rooms are furnished in hand-made teak. There is a large pool with a terrace, a riverside boma, a bar, a gym, a spa and a wide deck over the river, and meals are served on the terrace looking at the water.
The lodge's riverboats are all solar-electric, a quiet way to drift along the Chobe, and the game drives follow the river in search of elephant, buffalo, giraffe and puku. The lodge has a team of women guides.
Rooms
The Rooms
Thirty-five rebuilt rooms opening onto a terrace facing the Chobe River, with a large bath and separate shower, air-conditioning and ceiling fans. A family room with two bedrooms and interleading rooms can be requested.
Four rooms in the main area of the lodge with a larger, more private terrace, two bathrooms and a lounge that can take a single bed.
Three family suites, for children over 6, with a master bedroom, a twin room and a lounge, and the Honeymoon Suite, chosen by Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton in 1975. All four have a private terrace with an infinity plunge pool over the river.
