Okuti Camp

Okuti Camp’s main areas flow one into the other. The reception area, with its domed thatch ceiling, leads to a long area equipped with a dining table and comfortable chairs (the meals are highly recommended). Around the corner, the lounge's leather wrap-around sofa and armchairs beckon you to relax. The decor throughout is tasteful, eclectic and, above all, African. Outside, a fire bowl surrounded by comfortable fold-out chairs makes for convivial evenings. There's a swimming pool to plunge into at the end of a safari.

You can stay in a family, honeymoon or luxury mosasa (reed house). Each mosasa is very spacious and, like the main area, has a domed roof and is built on a raised teak platform from which to admire the lagoon. All are furnished with soft comfortable linens, mosquito netting and a ceiling fan for those hot summer afternoons.The en-suite bathrooms have indoor and outdoor showers with hot and cold running water; the honeymoon suite includes a large stone tub.

There's such an abundance of wildlife in Moremi that most of your time will be spent exploring the reserve in a safari vehicle. Motorised boat trips through the waterways bring you close to hippos, tigerfish and other aquatic life, as well as really good birding (including squacco herons, marabous and yellow-billed storks). Unwind beside the pool or on your private deck, watching the water slowly drift by. Night-time exploration of the wilderness is not permitted in Moremi.
