Individual bed and breakfast rooms are also available. When reserved as an exclusive villa, the property is entirely yours, with no other guests and no schedules. Just the wild, the water, and a home that has been lived in and loved for over a decade.

OUR STORY
From a Bedroll in Moremi to a Home on the Delta
In 1980, Benjamin lay beside a fire in Moremi under a sky full of stars. That moment never left him. Nearly two decades later, he and his wife Danell moved to Botswana, and eventually found a wild, untouched piece of land near Mohembo West. With four children, no roads, and no infrastructure, they built Okavango Villa from raw earth.
Not a lodge. A home. Theirs first, and now, shared with you.
