The sandy track to the lodge leads into a large and dusty cobbled parking area where you’ll find thatch-and-stone buildings that house the reception, curio shop, guest internet station, booking centre and office. Stone steps and sandy paths lead through landscaped gardens around the chalets and main area and a swimming facility is situated in a shady area. The chalets, public areas and the swimming facility take advantage of a 180 degree view of the riverbanks, lined with reeds and often visited by water fowl and birds.
Thamalakane River Lodge’s acclaimed restaurant is something not to be missed. The splendour of the surroundings is matched only by the superb food. In addition to the famous signature dishes of the lodge, diners can also expect to find local seasonal treats on the regularly changing menu. The bar overlooks the pool area and the river, so enjoy a sundowner while watching the waterbirds come home at sunset.
If you are on your way to the Okavango Delta, include the Thamalakane River Lodge in your itinerary. The lodge is situated on the banks of the Thamalakane River, 19km from Maun, on the way to the Moremi Game Reserve.
Within easy reach of the Maun International Airport, Thamalakane River Lodge provides a comfortable, mid-range option for those needing to overnight in Maun. Eighteen chalets with views across the river offer a choice of accommodation, while a large restaurant and bar is a great attraction even for the locals.
