Mwandi View

Had a very pleasant couple of nights here - highly recommended for laid back atmosphere & good food - with the bonus of a great waterhole on site for viewing animals at night (we saw mainly hippos & elephants but I daresay with more time we would have seen more). The tents are comfortable & well kitted out, though hot in the day when we stayed (temperatures in the high thirties) but OK at night. Maybe more powerful fans would be something to consider. Special mention for Lucky, the guide who took us into the park both days & worked hard to find the animals for us.

Mwandi View is exceptional and outstanding. Amelia and Anton are excellent hosts, who care about their guests and do everything to make their stay a pleasant one. Our tented cabin was well furnished and very comfortable. Amelia takes great pride in the excellent gourmet meals that are prepared every evening. Anton has constructed a water trough and water hole on the property and every evening it is visited by elephants, hippos, or giraffes. Two game drives and two river trips were arranged for us. All were excellent. The night game drives with Anton were exceptional and gave us a new appreciation of the environment. We felt very privileged to have a personal experience of Africa and highly recommend Mwandi View.

It was actually planned as a transit stop between Kasane and Goha. But oh boy, oh boy! This lodge has nothing to envy to any high end lodge. The place was neat and the view amazing and the whole staff lovely. Overlooking a water whole where we were even fortunate enough to see a Leopard drinking at night , some hyppos and an elephant. The food was Devine , diner and breakfast. If I should come back I would rather stay there without any doubt since you are close to Kasane and they do organize day trips to the Victoria falls and Chobe river cruise. We stayed in Kasane and I regretted it at the end since we enjoy the place so much. The tents are spacious and comfy with an en-suite bathroom. The owners were lovely as well. Thank you!!!

Un petit havre de paix ! Un magnifique Lodge si accueillant ! Home far away home prend tout son sens ici. Les gérants sont si accueillants et bienveillants comme toute leur équipe. Très bonne cuisinière ! Nous avons tout adoré ! Le water hole avec les rhinocéros ; le bar; le petit déjeuner , le restaurant et les chambres sur pilotis !

Wow, this was just a great experience! We have already decided we will go back and stay for 7 days. We stayed for 3 nights, we were greeted by Darius, he gave us a quick camp orientation, showed us everything we needed, and just gave us a warm welcome. That night we had dinner, that was a lovely meal. Lovely home cooked food. We left early the next morning to kasane, as this was our first time there I went to Amelda to ask he how we should drive and when we come back from Kasane, she pulled out a map showed me exactly where to go, where are some nice waterholes and what roads to mis due to deep sand. The last day as we were getting our fire ready one massive thunderstorm blew through the camp, while Anton was walking past he said we can go and braai at the bar area, that was great, a beautiful view with a fire. All in all, great place. An abundance of shade, that’s lovely, clean bathrooms, wonderful waterhole saw some elephants on 2 nights. Great people running the property, Amelda & Anton are real people. And Darius is a champion. As a bird watching family, this was also an amazing place to just sit and look for something special! You will see us again, hopefully soon!!

We stayed at Mwandi View for two nights at their campsite with our 4×4 with rooftop tent. We were welcomed by Keddy, who was very friendly and gave us clear instructions about the available facilities. The owners, Amelia & Anton, were the most kind, helpful and down-to-earth people we've met during our stay in Botswana; in for a joke, informative and flexible (there was a slight miscommunication with regards to our pre-booked meals, but they made sure we were well catered for regardless)! The home-made meals were, without exception or exaggeration, exquisite! It's in the name of the accommodation, but there's nothing that can beat the view from Mwandi View. Great pool, perfect bar and amazing staff! Special thanks to Brooks for the amazing game drive! We were also happy to become friends with Bruno, the friendliest of dogs who's job was to collect all the empty pet bottles and recycle them into his own personal toy collection. The night before our departure we asked for directions and received a hand-drawn map from Anton. We were glad we followed his instructions, because the route was beautiful and whilst bumpy, very much doable! Also managed to spot lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, baboons, antilopes and impala (AFI's, as Amelia called them)! Thanks fo the short but memorable stay!!
