Sediba Sa Rona: Khwai River Lodge Reborn

Sediba Sa Rona sits on the banks of the Khwai River opposite Moremi. It blends classic tented comfort with flexible activities: day and night game drives in the community concession and seasonal mokoro when water levels allow. With 15 tents, a spa and a pool on its own deck, the camp looks over floodplains where elephant herds and predators move between the concession and the reserve, often in view from your deck.

Overview of Sediba Sa Rona

Sediba Sa Rona stands among mature riverine trees on the site of the former Khwai River Lodge, where the Khwai River forms Moremi’s boundary in the eastern Okavango.

Location & Setting

Floodplains, papyrus channels and mixed woodland concentrate wildlife year-round, making the riverfront one of northern Botswana’s most reliable game areas. The community-run Khwai concession allows flexible activities not permitted inside Moremi, while the reserve itself is close enough for rewarding day outings. Access is typically by light aircraft to Khwai airstrip from Maun or Kasane, followed by a short transfer to camp. Desert & Delta Safaris opened Sediba Sa Rona on March 16, 2026, rebuilt from the ground up with partner Savanna Expeditions, and its new name means “our source of water”.

Rooms

Fifteen luxury tents stand on raised wooden decks facing the floodplain, each with an en-suite bathroom and a private deck for watching the river between activities. Two of the tents are inter-leading, which suits families, and the lodge takes no more than 30 guests. Satellite Wi-Fi reaches the tents.

Facilities

Central areas include a comfortable lounge and bar opening to a broad deck over the river and a dining room for plated or al fresco meals. The swimming pool sits on a separate deck with river views, and the spa has massages and facials. After dinner, the open-air fire deck is the place for stargazing. Game drives run in the early mornings and late afternoons, with night drives in the concession after dinner, and doors-off scenic flights over the Delta can be booked at extra cost.
