Set among towering acacia trees on the banks of the meandering, intermittent Savute Channel in the southern swath of world-renowned Chobe National Park in Botswana, Belmond Savute Elephant Camp is best known for fantastic year-round game viewing, large herds of elephants that roam the plains and unstinting luxury.
As a Belmond property, the Belmond Savute Elephant Camp has excellent facilities, including a dedicated observation deck overlooking a waterhole, an elevated swimming pool that has views of the riverbed, and a private, registered airstrip. In addition to game drives in search of the Big 5, guests can enjoy lectures on the wilderness by the resident expert environmentalist. Birders could also be in for a treat: the annual migration of carmine bee-eaters passes over, with these colorful birds sometimes hitching a ride on the back of larger kori bustards.
The 12 tents at Belmond Savute Elephant Camp are shaded by traditional African thatch roofs and are serviced with both Wi-Fi and air conditioning, assuring that you remain both cool and connected. Ideal for honeymooners, first-timers, or those who would like some pampering on their holiday, the camp is supremely comfortable, well located, and the very essence of discreet service.
Highlights
Activities
Although very modern and artistic in a contemporary African style, the main dining area is comfortable and cozy and the view of the river is fantastic!
Rooms
Luxury Tent
Raised on platforms to offer spectacular views, 12 twin-bed luxury tents with en suite bathrooms offer guests a comfortable oasis in the heart of the Savute Channel. Shaded by a traditional African thatch roof, each tent has a large private deck furnished with easy chairs and a hammock – ideal for game viewing or romantic dinners under the stars.
Beautifully appointed interiors are furnished with -poster beds draped in billowing mosquito nets, and the spacious bathrooms have double vanities and private outdoor showers. A fully stocked mini-bar, air conditioning, and overhead fans ensure absolute comfort.
Facilities
Whether you prefer the exhilaration of early-morning game drives or simply relaxing on the viewing deck overlooking the teeming watering hole, Belmond Savute Elephant Camp is a haven of tranquillity amid the wilderness.
The 20m-long elevated swimming pool area overlooks a riverbed that attracts game to drink, while inside there is a thoughtfully stocked reference library and plenty of comfortable sofas for lounging. High-powered telescopes are available for stargazing in the crisp evening air, while excursions to ancient Bushman rock paintings under the watch of towering baobabs can be arranged.
Belmond Savute Elephant Camp also has Wi-Fi, a same-day laundry service, a private airstrip, satellite phones, and a safari shop for both present and unexpected needs.
Dining
Evening meals can be enjoyed communally in the traditional boma, with a menu that includes gourmet takes on African favorites like samp and beans, pumba stew, beef seswaa, and bobotie – not to mention the classic Afrikaans sweets: milk tarts and koeksusters. Guests are also welcome to dine on the decks of their tents if you prefer a more intimate affair.
Lunch is served at the raised restaurant to make the most of the views, while breakfast is often taken alfresco in the bush.
