Nxabega Okavango Tented Camp

A maze of sparkling lagoons, meandering channels and overgrown islands teeming with wildlife, Botswana’s Okavango Delta lies like a sparkling jewel at the heart of the Kalahari Desert. Known as the river that never finds the sea, the Delta’s crystal-clear channels spread over the thirstlands of the Kalahari with their papyrus-fringed banks and fertile floating islands. Adapted for a life in and out of water, the elegant red lechwe and shy sitatunga are found in this watery wilderness.

All about Nxabega Okavango Tented Camp

Nxabega Okavango Tented Camp is located in a 25 000 hectare (61 775 acre) exclusive wildlife concession on the edge of the Okavango Delta, bordering the Moremi Game Reserve. Ideally positioned to explore the magnificence of the Okavango, the camp is known for its elegant tented accommodation, which boasts breath-taking views of the ever-changing Delta. Blending skilfully with the environment, nine exclusive tented suites, set on raised wooden platforms, are tucked beneath a canopy of ebony trees. Each spacious tent features a luxurious bed that faces the beautiful views of a reed-filled floodplain; an ensuite bathroom with an indoor and al fresco shower and a sprawling veranda with a spacious sitting area and a private sala. A family tent, consisting of two luxury tents joined by a walkway, offers the perfect setting for families to enjoy the wonders of the Delta.

Nxabega Okavango Tented Camp’s glamorous, light and earthy look begins on arrival, with an elegant entrance lending a sense of place and atmosphere to welcome guests to the camp. The beautiful interiors feature earthy tones that echo the magnificent natural setting, while a sophisticated safari style offers a contemporary spin on the traditional tented camp. The heart of Nxabega lies in its handsome living and dining areas, where burnished teak floors and a steeply pitched thatch roof frame a lofty andcomfortable space. Made from local timber, reed and thatch, the guest areas include indoor and outdoor dining areas, a well-stocked Safari Shop, and guest bathrooms. The camp’s extensive pool area offers salas for shade, and comfortable loungers positioned to make the most of the beautiful Okavango Delta views.
