“A warm and welcome lodge with amazing staff.”

Beautiful location, great staff who made you feel welcome and at home. Food was lovely and plentiful. Great guides and game drives and sunset cruises on offer as part of the stay. Comfortable communal lodge which was great to hang out in. Loved it.

“Nice Safaris”

Everything was great.

“Best safaris and glamping beside Chobe River!”

The best part of our 3 night stay was the daily morning safari and evening boat cruise with our Guide OT. He was so knowledgeable and made each trip out an adventure that we won’t forget. 😊 We saw so many animals and enjoyed a beautiful sunset too. The glamping experience was very good too….comfortable bed with great shower and bath looking out over the river, very relaxing. All meals were included and while it wasn’t gourmet food it was quite good and the staff were accommodating of our needs/requests. Likewise the included wines (when available) were good too. We appreciated the addition of a ‘frig in our tent/room as the weather was warm and it was really essential and not a luxury. The wifi was the best we had in Africa 😊 We appreciated being dropped off @ the airport by OT. Highly recommend that you stay here.

“We will be coming back.”

The place was magnificent, all inclusive stay with all meals, safari and boat cruise on the Chobe river. The view is to die for. Could not thank the staff enough. This place will be recommended to all friends and family.

“She said yes! Proposal at Chobe River thanks to Jackalberry”

Everyone was extremely friendly and have accommodated us perfectly! I asked them to help me set up my marriage proposal and they went above and beyond to help me. We had private activities for our full stay and they helped organize a romantic sunset boat tour for my proposal. All in all, I would definitely recommend the Jackalberry Chobe Lodge, amazing people, beautiful views, the pool was great, the food was great and the activities were well organized, always on time. The perfect way to visit the Chobe region!

“Disappointed”

The view over the Chobe, the pool and the very friendly and attentive staff.

the friendliness of staff, and the amazing wildlife experiences

“Amazing experience!!!”

Everything was just awesome. The staff is incredibly nice, Spha (the chef) is an amazing cook! My wife is a celiac, she can`t eat gluten, and they manage to prepare her even gluten-free bread, cake and pasta!! The game/boat drives we had were the best ones we`ve had, by far. Kabo, our guide, managed to find every animal we wanted to see (even leopard and hyenas) and somehow was able to answer every question we threw at them. The tents are amazing: you would think that given that it`s tents you`d find a lot of bugs, but we didn`t see a single bug inside our tent during our 3-days in the hotel. The balcony view from our room was just overlooking the river, and we manage to see buffalos, impalas and hippos just passing by. We were even woken up one day by monkeys knocking on the roof and the walls! As a bonus, the internet connection works well, even from the rooms and the borderless pool overlooking the river is also great. We had 3 amazing days at Jackalberry!!

“Wil never stay there again”

The rooms were good

we arrived at the property after driving a short distance on a terrible corrigated road…… ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT WE HAVE NO!!!!!!!! RESERVATION AT ALL. Extremely un helpful and no explanation . ??? IS THIS FACILITY OPEN ???? I REALLY HOPE I DID NOT PAY ANYTHING

“Best place for an unforgettable Chobe experience”

Loved the location right on the Chobe river and a short drive to Chobe national park. Our river facing room, was clean, luxurious and comfortable with all the amenities needed for our stay. The food and drinks were a treat but the best part of our stay was the lodge staff (Martin, Dekatso, Innocent) and our guide, Jack. They went out of their way to ensure we had a pleasant stay and the best Chobe bush experience. They are the true gems of the lodge and the highlight of our stay at Jackalberry Chobe. Would rate this lodge 15 out of 10.

“Perfect stay”

Great Staff. Great place. Amazing nature. Riverview rooms especially recommended.

“A phenomenal location with every luxury and incredible setting for wildlife, birding and relaxing”

Absolutely loved the location on the Chobe river and with everything so new at the lodge and phenomenal wildlife and bird sightings! Staff were incredible and managed to cater to every need we had. Our guide was exceptional and shared such immense knowledge. This is definitely a place we would recommend and would love to visit again! Thanks to Martin, Innocent, Sha, Umphelo and Justice!!

“Brilliant gateway to Chobe. Staff amazing and venue ideal”

The location was ideal. All the staff were brilliant. Our guide in the Chobe was amazing and I would go as far to say Justice was the most knowledgeable game guide I have ever had. I would recommend staying at the lodge on a all inclusive basis so you don't have worry about any of the usual pricey extras.

“Great location at the river.”

great views from river facing rooms. very friendly and attentive staff. good food. nice common area, terrace and pool.

“A perfect lodge in every respect!”

Our stay at Jackalberry Lodge was exceptional! The location is perfect, directly on the Chobe River. The wonderful view and the modern and luxuriously furnished tents make the stay very pleasant. The kitchen deserves 5 stars. The staff is extremely accommodating, helpful and also fulfils special requests. The game drives with Jack were very interesting, he taught us a lot about animals and wildlife.
