Einfaches romatisches Camp am Fluss
Pros:

Wir waren die einzigen Gäste und wurden trotzdem vom urigen Typen Mike willkommen geheissen. Wir hatten ein schönes voll ausgestattetes Zelt direkt am Fluss , mit Nilpferd!
Haben sehr gut und ruhig geschlafen!
Sehr gutes Preis Leistungs Verhältnis.

Cons:

Zufahrt ist per Google nicht leicht zu finden.
Da nicht klar war, dass das Restaurant geschlossen ist, mussten wir zum Abendessen zum Nachbarcamp fahren - war ok.

Nice beautiful and clean with disappointing directions and restaurant.
Pros:

The host was was a beautiful, friendly and helpful lady.

Cons:

They are not listed on Tracks 4 Africa or on Garmin maps or Maps.Me. Were struggling with internet on my phone so couldn’t connect to Google like a found them in the first place. They have a beautiful restaurant and Bar area but it was closed. That wasn’t nice after a long day of driving.

Pros:

A nice overnight stop, especially when travelling West. The water made for a nice setting although the miggies were many.

Cons:

Only one chair on the deck was perhaps an oversight?

More a lodge than a guesthouse in a very peaceful setting.

Excellent food. Entertaining host. Abundant bird life.

Cons:

Water had not yet reached the lake bed which was dry.

A comfortable, quiet place to relax. Staff was very welcoming and helpful :)
Pros:

We loved our stay at Nako Okavango guesthouse! All the staff were welcoming and friendly, especially Mike and Regina! We had dinner here two nights and the food was excellent! Bed was comfortable and the water was hot, overall a great experience.

Cons:

Just be aware that you are in the country and there will be some noise at night from the surrounding area. There was also no water in the lake at the time we were there (the water hadn’t made it down far enough yet).

Nice location with good cabins and comfy beds but management needs improvement.
Pros:

The tented cabin on the river edge in terms of location and layout was great, the large bed was very comfortable

Cons:

The room was cold (it was a winter night) and a heater would have been good. The wifi didnt work at the cabins and slow wifi was obtained standing outside the closed restaurant. The place didnt seem well organised or well staffed. We had to wait for staff to arrive the next morning to pay and this took a long time as the staff didnt know the pin code for the credit card machine and couldnt get hold of the manager/owner, the wifi connect was slow and in the end we had to pay cash to leave. The restaurant was closed and no one around and since it is several kilometres out of town food was not available without advance confirmation (but luckily we had eaten dinner in town but left without breakfast).
