Xaxaba Camp

Community owned Camp

Xaxaba Camp is run by Afrika Ecco Safaris from the local Xaxaba community. It is located on a private island deep within the heart of the Okavango Delta, a world-heritage site renown for its abundance of wildlife. This is a true rustic, wilderness experience ideal for the wild at heart. The focus here is on the community, the wildlife and untouched views in an area not known to many visitors. The island overlooks the famous Chief’s Island, and guests will have the opportunity to enjoy walks on this island. There are plenty of activities to enjoy that cater for the adventurous. 


Sleep under canvas

Accommodation

There are a maximum of 6 Meru-style tents individually set-up in a prime location overlooking the world-renown Chief's Island. Each of the tents sleeps 2 people, which means the camp can accommodate 12 people in total.  This is the perfect place for an intimate crowd that favours an authentic "glamping" experience where the focus is on game viewing, activities and staying in a remote location. Xaxaba Camp is a rustic camp, but offers all the basics and comforts from home. 

Tent Information

Each of the 6 tents sleeps 2 people on individual stretchers. Comfortable linen, pillows and a mattress is provided, ensuring a good night's sleep. Each tent has an ensuite canvas bathroom complete with bucket shower and eco-bush toilet. To freshen and spruce up, you are provided with standing hand basins that are constantly renewed with fresh water. There is also a seating area just outside your tent, complete with a canvas shade cover.
