With a lack of major cities (truly no bad thing)\u00a0boutique hotels in\u00a0Botswana<\/a>\u00a0don’t normally spring to mind, and sleek urban boltholes are certainly hard to come by! But, that doesn\u2019t mean there isn\u2019t some top-notch accommodation to tempt your fancy – and these are are absolute favourite boutique spots in Bots\u2026<\/p>\n

San Camp<\/h2>\n

Makgadikgadi Pan<\/em><\/p>\n

If it\u2019s old-school safari luxury you seek, San Camp<\/a> is it. This classically-styled camp in the heart of the Makgadikgadi<\/a> sings with history, from the evening banquets under starry skies, butlers to attend your every need, paraffin lanterns twinkling in the dark and the beautiful vintage accents sprinkled throughout. The bedouin tents, Persian rugs and luxe furnishings will beckon you in and make you wonder if it\u2019s ever possible to leave – and we\u2019ll tell you now, it\u2019s not easy. But it\u2019s so much more than just the aesthetics at San. Spend your time exploring the vast, moon-like pans that surround the camp enjoying otherworldly sunsets accompanied by the local mob of habituated meerkats and meeting the Bushmen. Style, luxury and a fantastic experience? That\u2019s San for you.<\/p>\n

Little Mombo Camp<\/h2>\n

Central Okavango<\/em><\/p>\n

An Okavango Delta<\/a> icon, Little Mombo Camp<\/a> is the epitome of a boutique Botswana stay. The tiny camp has just three tents to ensure the utmost privacy, and the contemporary interiors are beautiful, from the rooms through to the stunning main areas. Each room has an outdoor rain shower and shady deck to make the most of the spectacular views, and there are plenty of spaces in camp to relax between game drives with a G&T. Otherwise, book a spa treatment, enjoy a woodfired pizza overlooking the floodplains, or allow the sommelier to select something for you to be enjoyed around the firepit as you reflect on what\u2019s no doubt been a pretty spectacular day on safari.<\/p>\n

Jao Camp<\/h2>\n

Central Okavango<\/em><\/p>\n

If your Botswana<\/a> research has led you to the Okavango Delta<\/a>, chances are you might have already stumbled across Jao Camp<\/a>. This quintessential spot was one of the region\u2019s first luxury camps and feels entirely apart from the rest of the Delta. With both land and water based experiences on offer, every day is an adventure here, and the continuous rising and falling of the flood waters mean that no two days are ever the same. But Jao is also a place to truly relax: sleep under traditional thatch, shower in the great outdoors, sink into plush beds at the end of the day, or enjoy an evening slumbering under the stars. This is an unforgettable safari experience and the kind you\u2019ve previously only dreamt of.<\/p>\n

Linyanti Expeditions<\/h2>\n

Linyanti<\/em><\/p>\n

A remote location, wildlife viewing fit for a storybook, nobody else in sight, and gorgeous, authentic tents in which to lay your head? It sounds too good to be true but we\u2019re very happy to report that you can find it all at Linyanti Expeditions<\/a> in the Linyanti Reserve<\/a>. When it comes to camping, there are tents and then there are tents, and the ones at Linyanti rise above them all. Expect fluffy bedding, ensuite bathrooms with flushing loos and hot bucket showers, and a private, mesh-enclosed extension, perfect for sleeping under the stars and getting as close to nature as possible. Wildlife-wise, expect plenty of elephants (especially in the dry season), lion, hippo, wild dog, and the unique sable antelope. The birds here are also plentiful and their dawn chorus will likely be the first sound you hear in the morning, as the sun rises through the crisp morning air and the scent of coffee drifts towards you. Now, that\u2019s what we call luxury\u2026<\/p>\n

Duba Plains<\/h2>\n

Central Okavango<\/em><\/p>\n

If ever there was a picture-perfect location for a camp, Duba Plains<\/a> occupies it. Set beneath fairytale trees, epic vistas stretching for miles, it\u2019s in the heart of a private concession in the Okavango Delta<\/a> and so remote that you can only reach the camp by air – bound to make you feel just a little like James Bond as you touch down. The luxuriously-appointed rooms all have four-poster beds and rich leather furniture, and the views in the morning as you peel your head from the (finest feathered!) pillows are unbelievable. Foodies can rest assured that the food is sublime. From gourmet dinners to the delectable canapes served with sundowners, and firepit breakfasts, everything is mouth-watering and adds a certain something to one of the best boutique hotels in Botswana.<\/p>\n

Tuludi Camp<\/h2>\n

Khwai, Okavango Delta<\/em><\/p>\n

In the northern fringes of the Delta<\/a>, the Khwai concession<\/a> is remote and (very often!) much quieter than some of her counterparts. Up here there\u2019s just a sprinkling (four to be precise) of camps, meaning you\u2019ll feel like the area\u2019s all your own – well, yours to share with an abundance of wildlife that is. It\u2019s not just the blissful isolation that entices here, and Tuludi Camp\u2019s<\/a> vibrant interiors practically beg you to come in and look around. We\u2019re talking brightly-patterned cushions atop lime-green sofas, mirrored bars, cosy library treehouses – and a slide! Twice-daily game drives and mokoro trips will scratch any itches you have for adventure and once you\u2019ve returned from your expeditions, the rooms call. As big as palaces and raised on decks, all of them have enormous beds resplendent with beautiful linens, \u2018Evening Breeze\u2019 cooling systems, vast outdoor decks and views for days. What\u2019s not to love?<\/p>\n

&Beyond Chobe Under Canvas<\/h2>\n

Chobe National Park<\/em><\/p>\n

What if boutique was less about the art on the walls or the in-room Italian espresso maker and more about private, wild, once-in-a-lifetime experiences? Let us introduce you to &Beyond Chobe Under Canvas<\/a>. Yes, this might be \u2018camping\u2019 but it\u2019s camping with all the added extras, so really, you\u2019re not roughing it at all! And whilst the interiors are more than comfortable, it\u2019s the exterior that makes Chobe Under Canvas truly one of a kind. The camp moves every five to six days, meaning you\u2019ll always be optimally positioned for the best wildlife sightings, and to make the most of the stunning terrain. Meals (and delicious treats) are prepared over an open fire and each night, you\u2019ll gather around it, G&T in hand, to fully debrief on the day, perhaps accompanied by the sound of a lion roaring\u2026. So go on, review your definition of boutique and fall in love with &Beyond Chobe Under Canvas.<\/p>\n

Little Vumbura Camp<\/h2>\n

Central Okavango<\/em><\/p>\n

Intimate, stylish and beautiful, Little Vumbura<\/a> is right at the top when it comes to boutique lodges in Botswana<\/a>. The small camp has just 6 tents, guaranteeing you top-tier service throughout your stay, and the cosy, soft-hued interiors are calming and restful. Location-wise, Little Vumbura occupies an island (you can actually only reach the camp by boat) in the heart of the Delta<\/a> and is surrounded by the trees of an ancient forest. The famous waters of the Delta offer traditional mokoro rides and boat safaris, as well as fishing and incredible birding opportunities. But make some time to relax in camp too, however, either by the plunge pool for a spot of sun-lounger wildlife-viewing, outside your room with a traditional \u2018marula\u2019 cocktail, or on the Star Deck as darkness falls and the sky comes alive.<\/p>\n

Xigera Safari Lodge<\/h2>\n

Central Okavango<\/em><\/p>\n

We\u2019ve given you humble stays beneath the stars and picturesque camps in the middle of nowhere, but we thought we\u2019d finish with a little out-and-out luxury. Xigera Safari Lodge<\/a> (previously known as Xigera Camp) re-opened on the aptly-named Paradise Island in the Delta<\/a>. With a private wine cellar, library, sparkling pool, extensive spa menu and stunning artwork and sculptures sprinkled throughout, Xigera is luxurious with a capital L. The lodge is not oblivious to its surroundings, however, and the interiors are a celebration of African design and art, and highlight the wild landscape at every turn. There is also a real commitment to sustainability, and partnerships with the local communities in both realms are inspiring. The lodge is also powered almost exclusively by solar with no single-use plastics on the property.<\/p>\n
