The Island Safari Lodge is a great option for those staying in Maun to explore the Okavango Delta, Chiefs Island, and Morami. The property is massive with extensive walking trails and wildlife. The entire property is also walled and gated so you won’t encounter dangerous animals. The lodging is a bit dated so think of a higher end cabin experience as opposed to a hotel. The grounds are beautifully tended with lots of trees and greenery. The staff were all really friendly and helpful when we needed something. The restaurant on the property is a great place to eat. We booked safaris that left directly from the lodge and we’re not in the least disappointed. We saw some amazing wildlife in Moremi. The Delta was really relaxing on the water and they stay fairly close to the shallow areas so it’s safe and you can view a wide range of birds. The walking tour was also amazing. Altogether the Island Safari Lodge was a great experience.

We enjoyed the setting here. The staff were friendly and helpful. We ate dinner each night and enjoyed it. Breakfast was good. A/C worked well but only had WiFi at the lodge. We actually enjoyed sitting at the lodge and watching the view. Staff was great

Clean, friendly staff, but no atmosphere
The place is clean, the staff are nice and helpful, but there isn’t much of an atmosphere. One of the two swimming pools looked completely abandoned and dirty. Unless you have activities during the day, there isn’t much to do at the hotel. The food is average too.

Assessment already stated. You should redesign your questionnaire & be satisfied with whatever respondents give you & not require mandatory entries. So this is the last time I’ll respond to a request to complete a “survey.“ I suspect this is all AI stuff & no human will set eyes on this, let alone consider the comments !!?
