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.

Okonjima Bush Camp - Okonjima
![](https://www.africaodyssey.com/site/odyssey-image-proxy/lodges/okonjima-bush-camp=405370-405.jpg)
Our View
Okonjima Bush Camp provides a wonderful opportunity to immerse yourself within a true safari setting, whilst being able to explore a beautiful game reserve. Spending time with some of the continents rarest creatures is what Okonjima is all about about we think that Bush Camp is the place to stay here. It is head and shoulders above its sister Plains Camp.Cost: $560
Okonjima Plains Camp - Okonjima
![](https://www.africaodyssey.com/site/odyssey-image-proxy/lodges/okonjima-plains-camp=405371-405.jpg)
Our View
Okonjima Plains Camp provides a very good value opportunity to enjoy Okonjima Nature Reserve, with the same excellent activities and guiding that Bush Camp can offer. However it's large size detracts from that true safari feel and we feel that if you are to visit Okonjima, then Bush Camp is the more preferable accommodation.Cost: $250
Okuti - Okavango Delta
![](https://www.africaodyssey.com/site/odyssey-image-proxy/lodges/okuti---okavango-safaris-to-okuti-botswana=402847-405.jpg)
Our View
Okuti is a lovely little camp with a lot of heritage which clearly shows through in the experience. Moremi offers year round game viewing and Okuti is well located enough to remain relatively remote within the game reserve. It’s a good value camp and perfect for those looking to keep costs down.Cost: $808
Ol Donyo - Chyulu Hills
![](https://www.africaodyssey.com/site/odyssey-image-proxy/lodges/ol-donyo-wuas-safari-guide-to-the-chyulu-hills-kenya=402668-405.jpg)
Our View
Set in the Chyulu Hills, to the west of Tsavo, Ol Donya Wuas has long featured in Kenyan safari itineraries as a stunning location and lodge. However, as with plenty of Kenyan lodges they started to trade on their name rather than the overall experience provided and so really dropped off the map for us. With their joining of the Great Plains Conservation Group in 2008, the lodge has now had a full re-fit and is very much back to its best. The private concession that stretches as far as the eye can see is the ultimate place to spend a few days horse riding or game viewing…or even relaxing!Cost: $1,199
Ol lentille - Laikipia
![](https://www.africaodyssey.com/site/odyssey-image-proxy/lodges/ol-lentille-safari-guide-to-laikipia-kenya=402655-405.jpg)
Our View
The concept behind Ol Lentille is a truly admirable one and the lodge follows in the footsteps of other Kenyan lodges who have tried to incorporate local communities into conservation rather than excluding them. The lodge itself is cleverly thought out with a range of differing options open for couples through to larger families. The idea is to have a private house which is fully catered for, while also having the amenities of a larger lodge. Everything has been arranged to a very high spec and this is certainly one of the best choices in the Laikipia area.Cost: $850
Ol Malo Lodge - Laikipia
![](https://www.africaodyssey.com/site/odyssey-image-proxy/lodges/ol-malo-lodge-safari-guide-to-laikipia-kenya=402742-405.jpg)
Our View
It has been a true labour of love for the owners Colin, Rocky and their son Andrew, and they have succeeded in creating some thing very special. With 7 rooms in the lodge and 4 in the house ranging from the crocodile room and its crocodile bath, to the hippo rooms and their over head beds, each room has a certain character of its own. The house itself is vast and shares the views of Ol Malo which is about 20 minutes away. With features such as a rooftop sun deck, a large barbeque area and a luxury infinity pool.Cost: $950
Ol Seki - Greater Mara
![](https://www.africaodyssey.com/site/odyssey-image-proxy/lodges/ol-seki-safari-guide-to-the-masai-mara-kenya=402606-405.jpg)
Our View
Ol Seki is set in the Naboisho conservancy which is located to the East of Olare Motogori North East of the Mara National Reserve. It is a stunning camp in its own right, each of the rooms is perched atop a small escarpment and so has fantastic views down to the grassland plain below and the Loita Hills in the distance. The camp is absolutely beautiful and recently Naboisho has become renowned to be a great area for game viewing. Although in previous years it lacked the density of the Mara, with successful conservation efforts, this is now home to some of the highest lion densities in the Mara eco-system.Cost: $660

Old Cataract - Aswan
![](https://www.africaodyssey.com/site/odyssey-image-proxy/lodges/old-cataract=402826-405.jpg)
Our View
We have always loved the historic charm of the Old Cataract, with its unparalleled Nile-side location, elegant terraces and Agatha Christie suite, although it was, in the past, a little dusty and run down. But now, after four long years of meticulous, painstaking renovations, the Sofitel Hotel group have reopened this fabulous hotel, and it is a real treasure. The swimming pool and sun deck have been lavishly extended, and the rest of the hotel is restored to its former glory.Cost: $150
