Sandibe Lodge
SANDIBE LODGE - OKAVANGO DELTA,
BOTSWANA
Sandibe Safari Lodge is situated in a remote wilderness
area in the south-eastern Okavango Delta, 20 kilometres east of Chief’s
Island, on the southern border of Moremi
Game Reserve and adjacent to the Santantadibe River system. The area
that Sandibe traverses is 270 km². The site was specifically chosen
for its extraordinary beauty, its prime location on the permanent Delta
and its proximity to the game-rich grassy plains. Sandibe Lodge is owned
and operated by CC Africa.

Sandibe's accommodations consist
of eight intimate African-inspired cottages. The cottages are airy, with
en-suite bathrooms, toilet, twin basin vanity, hairdryers and open shower
and dressing area. All window openings are covered with insect gauze to
maximize views into the bush and river frontage. Each cottage has its
own private verandah/elevated viewing deck, which is perfect for intimate
candlelit dinners. In the heart of the camp, tucked under the forest canopy,
is the lounge and dining area with quiet, hammocked decks affording views
across the waterways and savannahs. A shaded swimming pool and well stocked
curio shop are close by. Pan-African dinners are prepared and served in
the open boma that also boasts a unique charcoal cooled wine cellar.
Activities
Activities at Sandibe include
twice daily game drives in open 4x4 game-viewing vehicles, bush walks,
river cruises in a unique electrically powered boat, fishing, mekoro (dugout
canoe) excursions in the Delta, bush breakfasts, elegant bush dinners
and bird watching. Night game drives are a highlight as they afford guests
an opportunity to see the lesser known but interesting nocturnal animals
of the Delta.
Wildlife
Game viewing is excellent here, and includes Buffalo,
Elephant, Lion, Leopard, Reedbuck, Red Lechwe, Impala, Zebra and Hippo.
The highly endangered African Wild Dogs are among the major attractions
of this area. Night drives can be very rewarding with good sightings of
the rarer nocturnal animals such as Pangolin, Civet, Serval, Genet, Porcupine
and Aardwolf. Guests will also likely see Zebra, Reedbuck, Red Lechwe,
Impala and all the plains game.
