Choosing your accommodation for a dream holiday is by no means an easy feat. Often people are swamped by the multitude of choices on offer, but luckily we are here to help. This page has been designed specifically to help you with your choices. Here we provide you with a comprehensive list of the best camps, lodges and hotels you can visit when booking with us. We highlight the significant differences in accommodation types and what they can offer. Our interactive menu below also allows you to search through each accommodation option, arranged by name, price, location and rating, at your own leisure.
Best Luxury Safari Lodges
With plenty of options to choose from, selecting your safari accommodation isn't easy. Different lodges can offer different experiences depending on what you are after from your holiday. Some lodges will only have small guest occupancy and offer intimate experiences, whereas other camps will cater for larger groups.
Camps can also be mobile meaning that they are not permanent structures and they will relocate depending on the season and where the animals are most likely to be. Due to the accommodation manoeuvring regularly, these camps are normally made up from a number of luxury tents. These tents however, dispel all traditional myths of what may come to mind if you think of camping. Their furnishings are luxurious and all your needs will be met. Their placement is also extra-close to the action and will certainly make you feel more at one with nature. If you have the opportunity to stay in these mobile camps, do it.
Best Beach Hotels
Just like the safari camps, there are many varying options when it comes to accommodation by the beach. Generally the more you pay, the more intimate and luxurious your accommodation will be, however we have options that can cater for all budgets. The beach hotels we offer can either be the base for a perfect romantic getaway or for an ideal adventure and activity filled holiday.
Best Safari Lodges
It is very hard to rank Africa lodges with one simple measure! Our ranking is subjective and tries to reflect value for money as well as overall quality. Therefore we may award just three stars to certain 'five star' lodges in the hotel, or five stars to some superb, unashamed 'three star' hotels that are great value for money.

Lazy Lagoon Island - Tanzania Mainland Coast
Lazy Lagoon was perfect for us; as I think we discussed, the laidback "bush chic" style might not suit the spa brigade, but we loved it. The journey out is of course a bit of an experience.- P&C Pearce

Le Paradis - Mauritius, West Coast
The larger Beachcomber property in the south-west of the island. This is a large hotel with underwhelming rooms though this area is wonderful for water sports and golf and the backdrop of Le Morne makes a great and amazing setting.

Lebala - Kwando
Great guide and tracker (Bali and TT). Great sense of humour, very knowledgeable. They seemed just as keen as we were to find that leopard (and we did find it!!)!- R Blom

Legendary Serengeti Camp - Serengeti
The Legendary Serengeti Camp is a luxury mobile tented camp, moving continuously throughout the year, in pursuit of the Great Wildebeest Migration, ensuring the best game viewing experience for guests in the Serengeti.

Lemala Kuria Hills - Serengeti, North
A new and permanent fixture in the north of the Serengeti, Lemala Kuria Hills has filled a gap in the market. Glass-fronted bedrooms with slightly colourful décor are not Africa Odyssey’s style but we acknowledge that for many, especially honeymooners, Kuria Hills might be the perfect lodge. Private plunge pools, good location and great sunsets.

Lemala Ngorongoro - Ngorongoro Crater
For so long, camping at the Ngorongoro a bit of a nightmare as temperatures can regularly fall below freezing due to the altitude. However, Lemala has gas heaters in every room and has, by far, the most luxurious tented accommodation on the Crater rim. The camp is well located (though do not be fooled, the views are not into the Crater itself as the camp lies on the other side of the rim looking out into the Conservation area as opposed to into the Crater itself) and does have some game in the surrounding area. Overall a quality product and a welcome breath of fresh air; Ngorongoro needed better lodges and now, finally it has one! But it lacks in access and location for rather a lot of money.

Lemala Serengeti Camp - Serengeti, Mobile
Lemala Ndutu/Serengeti is a great mobile camp and offers some of the best value of all the mobile camps in the Serengeti. The company is quite new to the whole Tanzanian safari game. However, so far so good! The location in the North is stunning and the tents really are very large and very good. It doesn't have the pedigree of its competitors but if you're looking for a value mobile tented camp this is well worth considering.

Lemuria - Praslin
Lemuria is a superb hotel. Recently built and bringing with it a very Mauritian feel this hotel is wonderfull for honeymooners, families and golfers alike. the hotel's private beach - Anse Georgette - is simply staggering and one of the best in the Seychelles
