Pros:

It's location is very nice along the river, offering nice views and refreshing breeze.

Cons:

They could do with providing mosquito nets in the rooms and offering a breakfast buffet. Same breakfast every day is not pleasant.

Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

On the day of arrival, I went to the property at around 12:00 noon to inquire about the possibility of an early check-in. I was informed that early check-in would attract an additional charge of P400, which I declined. I then advised the staff that I would return at 14:00, which is closer to the standard check-in time.
Shockingly, approximately 15 minutes after I had left the premises, I received a phone call informing me that my booking/vacancy was no longer available. This was both unexpected and unacceptable, especially given that the booking had been confirmed well in advance.
This experience reflects poor customer service, lack of professionalism, and improper handling of confirmed reservations. A confirmed booking should not be cancelled or reallocated without valid reason or proper communication, particularly when the guest has complied with the agreed check-in terms.

Ruhiger, kuscheliger Ort mit Charme.
Pros:

Ich war mit Familie, Freunden, allein schon 6 mal dort und werde wieder kommen, das sagt doch alles.

Cons:

Obwohl eine große Küche und Bar vorhanden ist, war meist abends kein Service. Aber wir sind dann selbst aktiv geworden oder haben zuvor in der Okavango Brewery, im Dusty Donkey gegessen.

Lovely place
Pros:

Location is 15 minutes drive out of town but worth it - enjoy the garden view and have a walk along the river. Staff ist extraordinarly friendly and helpful, the rooms, the pool and all other facilities were very clean and comfortable for a reasonable prize. They offered hot water, tea and coffee in the room, an awesome breakfast and prepared a lovely dinner for us.

Cons:

everything was fine!

Prachtige idyllische plek net buiten Maun.
Pros:

Prachtige, rustige plaats buiten Maun. Ideaal als je niet direct de delta wil bezoeken, maar eerder richting panhandle en Namibië gaat. Heel gastvrij ontvangen. Jammer dat dit niet zo gekend is want dit verblijf heeft veel potentieel.

Cons:

Moeilijke zanderige toegangsweg.
