Comfortable canvas sided room with 2 beds Rooms/cabins were not side-by-side, making them very private Pillows, duvets, beds very cozy and comfy. Good hot showers No AC. but had a large fan for the warm afternoons. Once the sun began to go down, so did the temperature, making for cold mornings Chairs on porch/balcony were a plus - great views of wildlife going to and from the waterhole (dimly lit at night)! Restaurant (open air) had good offerings for both dinner and breakfast. Very attentive service. Staff were practicing napkin folding - the giraffe was wonderful Mosquito repellent a must at dinner This is THE place to stay for visiting the Nxai Pan and the Makgadikgadi Pan!

I can't say anything about the lodge itself. It may be great.... But: We were flying with a small airplane around Botswana and chosed that lodge because it has a small airstrip. 4 days prior our planned arrival, we have been noticed, that the airstrip is closed due to a lot of recent rain. So it was no use for us to visit the lodge, it was planned for just one night... The told us, we should fly to Maun and they would pick us up there. 160 km driving, all the requirements for a big international airport and 160 € charge for the pickup. That made no sense for us. So we changed our plans and skipped the lodge. They charged us the full price, not even a compromise with an aditional book of the dinner for me and my daughter. This might be rightfull, but I don't like people, who are just looking on short advantage with no sense of problems for others... So for me a never-again experience

My family of nine had a wonderful stay at Leopard Plains. From the moment we arrived the staff was very attentive and so friendly and helpful. It is so quiet and peaceful. And the food is delicious! I would definitely stay here again!

Peace and tranquility - we had a wonderful stay in Leopard Plains. The staff were really helpful and always available and always smiling. Food was delicious and beautifully presented. The beds were super comfortable and everything worked well. It's close to both of the Pans and there's a wonderful guide, Kashim, who can take you on a drive and is very knowledgeable and happy to answer any questions. We hope to return one day.

We stayed for 2 days, after having camped many days in different national parks in Botswana. It gave rest and piece, in an atmosphere of luxury and surrounded by nice people. On top of this, the food prepared by Paj was excellent.

As we went there after the rain in a green season, we didn't see any leopards. They might have come around our tents, but we couldn't see them. However the lodge was very welcoming: we arrived late but they organised a sunset game drive, they offered us pick up and drop off between the bus stop, and so on. The tent was spacious and cozy. The dinner was interesting as we ate bone marrow! We had a great time there. Thank you so much.

The lodge is situated close to the Nxai Pan and Makgadigadi National Parks, which are both absolutely worth a visit. The staff is warm and welcoming, the tents are good, with very comfortable beds, and the food is great! Our guide, David, was excellent.

It was totally our fault but we arrived late due to 'quick' self-drive in Makgadikgadi taking way longer than expected! Luckily the staff waited for us to serve dinner immediately on arrival. And baked me a huge birthday cake and sing Happy Birthday! Tent was great but we didn't see it in daylight until the next morning! Loved the resident Oryx! A bit pricey though...
