Caprivi
Susuwe Island Lodge offers guests here the opportunity to experience a wild and untouched island of Africa.
Situated in north eastern Namibia, the island is in the remote Kwando River - a permanent water source which nourishes delicate ecosystems and sustains varied game and birdlife.
Game drives in open 4x4 vehicles go out into the Bwabwata National Park, where wildlife sightings could include vast herds of roaming elephant and buffalo, lion, hippo, leopard, sable, roan, lechwe and puku for example. Night drives at Susuwe offer an even closer insight into the intrigue of the African bush.
There is also outstanding bird watching opportunities in a variety of riverine, floodplain and grassland habitats.
Relaxation, privacy and comfort are paramount here. The lodge is built to incorporate the riverine forest, and the main complex has lofty canopy viewing decks overlooking endless savannahs, glistening lily-studded wetlands and ancient Kalahari woodlands, as well as a firepit, spacious lounge and dining areas, curio shop and small reference library.
Six spacious brick and thatch suites equipped with double bathroom, bedroom, lounge and wooden viewing deck each with private plunge pool offer guests the opportunity to merge unhurriedly with Africa's timeless evolution of hazy days and star-studded nights.
Mosquito nets, overhead fans and hairdryers as well as generated electricity are provided.
