Easy booking. Friendly & very helpful receptionist. Friendly and helpful staff at the restaurant & bar. Clean & comfortable accommodation. Good dinner and excellent breakfast. For sure the best value for money, overnight stay in Maun.

Front desk and bar/restaurant staff was lethargic and unenergized or motivated for two nights in a row. When we arrived, we were missing basic items such as pillowcases on our pillows. We had to request a kettle for morning coffee as it is hard to prepare tea or coffee without hot water. The facilities were run down. For example, our sink leaked on the floor, toilet took multiple flushes, and hot water handle on our shower spun freely and hot water was only attained by pressing in the handle and twisting. Overall, the facilities need some very minor rehabilitation. Property was nice and location nice and felt safe...but it needs some love and staff improvements.

We had a lovely time at Island Safari Lodge and found the staff extremely helpful. We had a lovely view of the river from our particular campsite. The restaurant served a very nice breakfast. We would go again if we were ever back in Botswana

Island Safari Lodge exceeded expectations with its efficient and welcoming staff, who made the stay smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. The facilities are top-notch, with everything well-organized and easily accessible. The campsite was particularly impressive—well-maintained and spacious, with plenty of shade and privacy. The ablution blocks were spotless, showing a clear commitment to cleanliness and comfort for all guests. A big thank you to the team for creating such a lovely experience. If you're looking for a well-run, peaceful place to camp with excellent amenities, Island Safari Lodge is a fantastic choice!

a lodge and campsite located in a beautiful area but which must have seen better days. The campsite's sanitary blocks have been neglected, the braiis broken and not very functional, and the campsite has not been maintained. The staff, however, are very pleasant and smiling, especially in the bar and restaurant. The mokoro excursion was interesting. Overall, we enjoyed our stay with a feeling of “it could be much better with a little more upkeep”.

We spent 2 nights camping at Island Safari, the sites were spacious, flat and equipped with two power sockets. Ablutions were clean and light and there was plenty of hot water, convenient access to washing up sinks. A highlight was the bar and restaurant at the lodge; a broad shaded terrace overlooking the river, dinner and breakfast were excellent and the team very friendly and efficient. The Okavango gin was very pleasant after a day in the sun. We didn’t get a chance to experience the nature walks around the lodge, but a family of kudu paid us a visit in the afternoon which was quite special. The reception team organised a mokoro trip for us at late notice which gave a chance to experience the delta at close quarters.

Island Safari Lodge is both tranquil and conveniently located. We stayed for 3 nights following a busy trip through Botswana and the facilities allowed us to relax and enjoy the the peace and quiet it offered. Nothing to do with Island Safari Lodge, but the road to the Moremi is very bad (August 2024), so that hampered our ability to enjoy the Moremi (4 hour round trip just to get to South Gate).
