Stanley’s Camp

Set in an amphitheatre of ebony and sausage trees near the southern tip of Chief's Island, Stanley's Camp is at the heart of 104,000 hectares of untamed bush. It is one of Botswana's smallest and most intimate camps, with a maximum capacity of sixteen guests experiencing the best of Africa's wildlife and the highest standards of service and accommodation.

Accommodation

Accommodation consists of eight classic-styled safari tents, each with en suite facilities and a private balcony where you can relax from the comfort of your hammock in the African sunshine. The main building is raised on decking and offers extensive views over the surrounding floodplains. Dinner is served overlooking the game-filled plains, seasonally glazed with their life-giving flood of water. The finest cuisine is complemented by a carefully-selected choice of South African wines.

Facilities

The adjacent bush is rich with excitement: on game walks, day and night-time game drives and silent, gliding mokoro excursions (subject to water levels). Guests can track a wide variety of big-game species: giraffe, buffalo, lion and leopard are often encountered. A particular highlight here is the resident herd of elephant: wild, but habituated over the last fifteen years to share their natural world with small groups of human guests. There is the chance to join these graceful giants on walking safaris through the bush, sharing in their daily activities of bathing and foraging, feeding and play.
