Chobe Water Villas | Zambezi, Namibia
Here, at the easternmost point of Namibia and directly on the banks of the Chobe River, the Chobe Water Villas are enthroned, just to give you an unforgettable African experience.
The boutique lodge is located in the 150 km² Kasika Conservation Area, right on the border between Botswana, Namibia, Zimbabwe, and Zambia. It is the perfect starting point for exploring the wildlife of the vast river network of the Chobe and Zambezi rivers.
The 117 km² Chobe National Park is home to 160,000 elephants and 164 different mammal species, including lions, hyenas, cheetahs, leopards, zebras, and giraffes. The river's inhabitants include hippos, buffalos, and crocodiles. On safaris on land and on the river, you can experience all the inhabitants of this special ecosystem up close at different times of the day.
The 16 luxury villas are built on stilts directly on the shore and above the Chobe River, offering a unique view of Chobe National Park on the other side of the river and Botswana's Sedudu Island.
The villas impress with their unique interior design and furnishings: wake up to views of the Chobe River and open the floor-to-ceiling glass doors to the river so you don't miss a sound from the wilderness. Relax on your private terraces or swim laps in the large infinity pool after an exciting day on safari.
