Savute Safari Lodge in Botswana, within the Desert & Delta Safaris portfolio, is set to reopen following a comprehensive reconstruction, reported TravelDailyNews.  

The newly rebuilt lodge will comprise guest rooms that include temperature control during the warmer months and a new feature, private outdoor showers. 

Each room will also be redesigned to feature views of the Savute Channel.  

The lodge includes 11 standard rooms and a family room.  

Its interior will combine traditional safari lodge elements with a contemporary touch along with a colour palette inspired by the Kalahari's contrasting colours. 

The communal spaces will also be redesigned to focus on the views of Botswana's dynamic waterhole.  

Savute Safari Lodge will also include a raised deck with a central fireplace leading down to a sunken hide, allowing guests to observe wildlife at eye level in the Savute region. 

It also offers facilities such as indoor and outdoor dining venues, a bar, a swimming pool, a campfire, and more. 

Desert & Delta Safaris managing director Matthew Johnson said: “This is an incredibly exciting project for us. Savute is such an iconic safari destination, and the new Savute Safari Lodge will offer guests a front-row seat to the wildlife of the unique and mysterious Savute from an extremely comfortable and stylish lodge. 

“The design and style are distinctly different to other lodges in the Desert& Delta Safaris’ portfolio, ensuring each lodge exhibits its own individual character while upholding its commitment to local empowerment and warm, friendly, and professional service.” 

Desert & Delta Safaris’s current portfolio of properties also includes Leroo La Tau, Chobe Savanna Lodge, Camp Xakanaxa, Camp Moremi, and more.
