Chobe Savanna is relaxed
and informal, set in a classic African savanna environment with sweeping
vistas surrounding the lodge. The focal point of the lodge is a thatched
open-sided main building which commands a 270-degree view over the Chobe
River and beyond to the Chobe National Park. Located in the main building
are the lounge, dining room and bar, all furnished with African-style
décor in dark teak wood, perfectly blending with the environment.
The lodge accommodates just 24 guests in stylish thatched chalets, each
with private deck, a combined bedroom / lounge area and en-suite bathrooms.
All rooms are furnished in subtle earth tones and dark woods in a contemporary
African theme, are air conditioned, and have complimentary mini bars and
overhead ceiling fans.
The charm of Chobe Savanna Lodge,
with its sweeping views and wide vistas, lies in its beauty, tranquility
and peaceful atmosphere, far from the crowds of large cruise
boats and game drive vehicles. The emphasis here is on complete relaxation
and solace. Unlike other properties, wherein regimented game activities
are prioritized, Chobe Savanna Lodge offers guests the choice of
just taking 'time out' or joining in on one of the many safari activities
offered at the lodge. Depending upon the time of year, guests
are also able to take a canoe excursion along the river.
Facilities include an open-air swimming pool with a beautiful sun deck
and an open boma area on the banks of the Chobe River where guests are
treated to panoramic views and traditional dancing performed by local
villagers.
Activities
Those who wish to explore
the Chobe River will enjoy the resident professional guides, whose intimate
knowledge will make for an unforgettable experience. Guests have a choice
of walking safaris or personalized guided cruises on one of
the smaller water craft belonging to the Lodge, ideal for close up encounters
with wildlife along the river's edge. There are also good fishing on
offer. The waters around the lodge are renowned for outstanding Tiger
and Bream fishing. Fishing expeditions with experienced guides and all
necessary tackle can be arranged.
For guests interested in learning about the cultures of the local communities
that inhabit the Caprivi Strip, the lodge arranges private visits to remote villages.
Here guests can observe the deep-rooted, traditional life styles of the indigenous
people.
Wildlife
Chobe's Puku Flats are renowned for its diverse
and prolific wildlife, including the rare Puku antelope. It is also home
to large herds of Elephant and Buffalo, large numbers of Hippo, as well
as concentrations of Giraffe, Sable, Wild Dog, Lion and the other predators
which come down to the river to drink, graze and hunt. This area is an
untouched water wilderness sanctuary, ideal for quiet discovery, where
game and bird life flourish undisturbed under the protection of the Chobe
National Park.
