Marinas Camp lies at the edge of Maun (about ten minutes drive from the airport), along the Shorobe road, which leads to the Moremi Game Reserve in the Okavango Delta, Botswana.

Maun, once a frontier town for daring entrepreneurs, is now a bustling place where you can buy almost everything and can enjoy a visit to the local markets and curio shops, the museum, the wildlife educational park, cultural tour to a nearby village or a guided bird walk along the Thamalakane River - one of the outflows of the Okavango Delta.

Due to the unique biodiversity and incredible bird life the Okavango attracts visitors from all over the world. Generally these visitors fly straight out into a lodge in the delta without ever really touching ground in Maun. For the few who do, Marinas has become an unforgettable experience. Situated just off the main road overlooking one of the floodplains, Marinas has the feeling of being in the bush. Marinas offers 8 thatched roundavels - either twin, double or family - with en-suite facilities. All beds have mosquito nets, and all rooms have fans. The large pool and restaurant both offer unobstructed views over an old floodpain where hopefully in the near future zebras might be spotted. Superb food is served either at the bar, the beer garden, around the pool or at individual tables in the restaurant. And by the way, our breezy bush bar serves the coldest drinks in Maun!

The eight thatched en-suite roundavels blend into the surrounding and are placed in a semi circle, creating the impression of a small village, with the ‘kgotla’ (traditionally the main meeting area) in the centre. In our case, the meeting centre is a round breezy bar that encourages great conversations over a cold drink. If you like more privacy you could leave the bar for the cosy beer garden or overlook the pool whilst enjoying an intimate dinner from our international kitchen. If you would rather enjoy our fabulous food inside, Marinas also has a restaurant with a majestic view.
