Namibia: Kayova River Lodge

Perched high on the slopes of the Okavango riverbank sit Kayova River Lodge. We welcome you to explore our paradise of copious bird species, fish, hippo, large crocodiles, and the tranquil river life.

Affectionately known by the locals as "shiwangundu" (pearl) of the Okavango. Kayova Lodge is situated between the towns of Rundu and Divundu, Kayova River Lodge is perfectly positioned for guests to explore the natural beauty of the Zambezi region.

Kayova River Lodge was officially opened in 2012 and is a 100% community-based lodge, with all the profits from the lodge going directly back to the Kavango community close to the lodge.

Built with a purpose to attract and host tourist to the beautifully location, the lodge also caters for small break-away conferences and corporate visitors in a tranquil and relaxing atmosphere.

The lodge features a large area under lawn with large shady trees close the rooms and main area that overlooks the river. The bright blue pool has a deck area with pool loungers and part roof covering for shade during the midday. The second pool is located closer to the tented units.

The main area has a Bar and Restaurant with inside and outside seating. The facilities are open during the day with a scrumptious choice from the menu.

Eight chalets - 4 Queen & 4 twin rooms. One unit can be converted into an inter-leading family room with separate bathrooms. All the rooms have mosquito nets and air-conditioners. The bathroom has a shower, washbasin, and flush toilet with amenities included.

Ten Meru Safari Tents - 4 Queen, 1 double 5 twin rooms with a close up garden river view.

The tents are spacious and airy with flaps that can sip shut as required. The tents are mosquito and insect proof while the gauze net is kept closed. Each tent has an air-conditioner.

Early morning boat trips are ideal to catch a glimpse of the feathery and scaly creatures amongst the reeds.

Visit a traditional village by Donkey cart ride to learn more about the daily activities and traditions of the local folk. Late afternoons are reserved for the most iconic sunsets over the Zambezi landscape from the boat.
