Stay in airy, wooden, reed-and-thatched chalets that overlook an expanse of pristine water that attracts beautiful birds, long-legged wildlife and the predators of the region looking for an easy kill. Gather at the open-sided thatch main lodge set back under ebony and African mangosteen trees to relax in the spacious bar, lounge and dining areas. An exclusive safari experience, Xugana Island Lodge only caters for 16 guests so revel in the relative privacy of your explorations into the Delta either by boat or guided walks on the surrounding islands.
