Botswana: Living the Okavango
The Okavango Delta
Deciding to stop and relax for a few days in an elegant lodge facing out onto the Okavango Delta. Letting yourself be pampered by an impeccable service and by the fresh breeze, seated in a comfortable chair, maybe with a book in your hands, you wait for an antelope to jump into the water or an elephant to silently emerge from the thick papyruses.
Magic moments...
A safari in your living room, without having to move, nature slowly wraps you in its gentle arms. A succession of magic moments and unexpected surprises, an exclusive gift for anyone who abandons the rush of routine and allows themselves the luxury of being amazed.
THE TRADITION OF THE LODGES IN OKAVANGO
An eccentric Californian woman built the first tented camp as a personal residence: Jessie Neil, one of the fifty most influential women in America. When she arrived in the Okavango Delta in the seventies she immediately fell under its spell.
A lover of luxury...
A lover of luxury and photography, she moved there with linen tablecloths and refined silverware, serving legendary meals to her numerous guests. With the passing of time, this home was transformed into the first luxury lodge in Botswana, forbearer of a style still adopted today in all the most suggestive destinations in the Dark Continent.
