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.

Our View


Mike's Camp - formerly Kiwayu - is an Indian Ocean dream. The idea here is that sand should always be under foot, the breeze always in your hair, and immersed in its unique private location. It’s a really special place and we couldn’t recommend it enough. Its price also matches its laid back ethos.

    Mivumo - Selous
    We absolutely loved Mivumo. It was amazing to be able to step out onto our balcony to look over the river and hear the hippos in the water. Have never been anywhere more peaceful. The food was great and the staff were so friendly. It was our first safari, so didn’t have anything to compare it to, but we saw so many animals and loved every second of it.

    Mma Dinare - Okavango Delta

    Our View


    Mma Dinare is a brilliant option for those who want a private slice of the Okavango Delta and a serious safari experience but with a splash of poolside luxury. While water-based Okavango activities including mekoro rides are usually allowed (water level dependent), you don’t get the winding waterways of other concessions. Saying that though, Kwando - the trusted and experienced company running the concession - are serious about safari, so you’re in exceptionally good hands.

    Mnemba Island lodge - Zanzibar Islands
    I guess this has to be the perfect ending, the pictures pretty much sum it up as a lost Maldivian Island and that's exactly as it is. A luxurious stay with everything you'd expect from a 5 star experience. Friendly staff intent on making the feel of a private Island as private as you want it to be. Superb diving and private dining.

    With quite a range of lodges and small hotels to choose from these days in and around Arusha, this lodge stands out as being a good choice. With good service and clean, airy rooms the lodge is well managed. It has a good sized pool for those who may have come off Kilimanjaro, otherwise ideal for a quick dip in the afternoon after arriving from anywhere else. A good option for those looking for a quiet and charming stoop over point on their way through. Excellent for families, but if you are looking for small intimate place, look elsewhere.

    Mokete Camp - Mababe

    Our View

    Botswana is renowned for having some of the most exclusive safari experiences in Africa, yet location is still key for the best experience. Mokete, meaning ‘celebration or feast’ in Sesotho is exactly what is provided. Feast your eyes on some of the best game viewing in the country and celebrate exploring an area only a select few have had the privilege of doing.

    Mokolwane Camp - Okavango Delta

    Our View


    Mokolwane is an intimate but relaxed Okavango Delta camp set in a brilliant leopard-viewing, 200,000-hectre concession. This is an ideal base for small groups looking for an exclusive Okavango experience without breaking the bank. It’s also just a really barefoot luxury existence here - but the food, guiding and experience is top notch.

    Molori Mashuma - Mana Pools

    Our View

    Mana Pools is without doubt one of the best places for a pure, wilderness safari. And whilst bush camps and Mana Pools often go hand in hand, there’s no denying that some guests prefer their creature comforts. And Molori Mashuma provides this, plus much more in the heart of walking safari heaven.

    Molori Madikwe is an exclusive South African paradise. For those who want a truly intimate safari experience - and to be in a good value and malaria-free safari park, you can’t get much more luxurious than this. While it is expensive for the Madikwe Game Reserve, it’s not when compared to similarly decked out lodges in neighboring countries.

    Mombo - Moremi
    I wanted to drop you a note and tell you what an absolutely fantastic trip I had to Mombo and Vumbura Plains.  I walked away with 2900 photos and am, by no means, a serious photographer. Thank you again for all your wonderful suggestions.  They really paid off for me.  You can be certain this is not my last trip there.
