About Xaro Lodge

Nestled amongst giant mangosteen trees and accessible only by boat, this Lodge is home to a myriad of birds. The distinctive cry of the African Fish Eagle, White-Backed Night Heron and the elusive Pel’s Fishing Owl make this tropical paradise a must for bird lovers. Watch a breathtaking sunset whilst sipping a sundowner and listen to the call of the wild. After a delicious dinner, sit around the campfire reliving your day, listening out for the call of the wild or marvelling at the splendour of the night sky!
