Kwalape Safari Lodge

Kasane

Clean room, place and an amazing lodge with trees around keeping the place supper cool
Its one of the best lodges to be considered when finding accommodation in kasane Botswana
The lady stuff was welcoming and help everyone with anything which was required
I have absolutely nothing against this resort and highly recommend to anyone

Peaceful night 

Each rooms is cleverly been fitted with canvas providing a true Bush ambience in a solid structure.  Large pool and entertainment area make this a very social space.  Additional restaurant provides a choice of entertainment.  The lodge has a large capacity and provides an excellent venue for big groups 

Conveniently situated off the main road 

This lodge is terrible.  First of all, our agent booked our trip 6 months ago.  This was a family trip for my 80 years old parents and my husband and I. So, in all our lodges that we booked, we ask that our rooms could be close together.  In March, it’s considered as low season so basically, plenty of availability.
When we arrived, they were an old brook down tractor in front of the reception with broken tiles and propane tanks lying around as our welcome view.  At reception, no welcome drinks nor a smile from the clerk at front desk.  The overview of the lodge left us with in despair, the lodge seemed neglected no matter where we looked.  
We arrived around 2 pm.  We had a quick lunch because we were supposed to have a boat cruise.  We ask for the menu “à la carte” because nothing else was available. Knowing that my parents ate a meal for 2, it has been logical since the begging of our trip that they take the menu instead of a buffet.  We ordered chicken burger and chips…  Unfortunately, the waiter tells us that they don’t have any chip… but we were still charge for them.  After lunch, while we were heading for our boast cruise, the front desk clerk tells us that it’s now impossible to do the boat cruise. The only avenue was to switch our morning game drive of tomorrow for today. Something that we didn’t want but didn’t have the choice. This was imposed by the lodge.  The game drive guide “Nature” was awesome.  A quick drive but a fun one.
After the drive, we headed to our rooms.  Not exactly beside my parents. Their rooms was ok but ours, filthy. The window curtains had moisture stains, the ceiling fixture was missing, it was on the ground broken and didn’t have any light bulbs. The bed filet for the mosquitos had plenty of holes, the bathroom tiles were broken and had holes in it since the towel’s poles were missing.  The head shower was cluttered and didn’t run properly. The sink foster wasn’t attached to the sink and the sink corking had moles. You were able to see that they tried to patch a hole on a wall and paint it with a different color.  Above all, they was a huge spider that came out of the ceiling but we didn’t have any bug repellent in our room to kill it.  We complained but only had a new room the next day.
The next day, we went on our boat cruise with “Nature” again. He was very good, and he was the only employee that smile during our stay.  When we arrided for lunch, we ask for the menu, but we were refuse by the waiter. They told us that we didn’t have a choice and need to eat at the buffet.  Very disturbing because my parents eat a meal for 2 and now we were obligated to eat a buffet that was twice the price.
Because we were leaving early the next day, we ask them if they could make an early breakfast around 6:30 instead of 7:00.  The agreed but the next day, breakfast was ready but no coffee. It took them 30 min to brew the coffee.  At the end, it was ready only at 7:00 the exact time we had to leave.
When it was time to pay our stay, Martha the front desk clerk gave us an outrageous bill.  The first lunch we had cost us 3 meals at 90 pola each. But the buffet was 185 pola each.  We tried to explain to her that it was ridiculous but she was rude, impolite and didn’t listen at all what we were trying to explain.  She even called the security guy at the gate to tell him not to let us pass.  We tried to speak to a manager by phone and both didn’t listen, they just wanted us to pay the full amount.  We had no choice if we wanted to leave.
Overall, Martha didn’t even try to compromise.  She was rude and impolite. I never seen a lodge so filthy and over charging customer for food that they didn’t eat.  Honestly, they are thief, has no courtesy and the food was mediocre.  I don’t recommend this lodge to anyone.  New ones were just built lately so I suggest you look elsewhere before booking at Kwalape Lodge.

Unfortunately, we didn’t took picture because we NEVER thought to be rob like this. We will know for next time.

The only positive thing is "Nature' our guide for the game drive and the boat cruise.

terrible

Easy to find from the border crossing.Food average to good

Our stay here was very touch and go. Some staff were amazing and polite and others so very rude. One lady rolled her eyes at us when we asked to have lunch and someone on reception told us they would send maintenance to look at our broken toilet the following day (it needed seeing to immediately) 
The pool was filthy (I'm assuming it's because we went in off season) and a huge clump of hair had been left in the shower drain so that it took ages to drain properly during and after a shower.
And most worryingly of all, the water from the taps runs a light brown.
The only good things i can say about this place is that its got a great location and is very close to the national park so is convenient. The food was surprising good and our safari guide- Peace was wonderful.
He was incredibly knowledgeable, kind and just amazing. We felt truly blessed to have got to spend time with him. He knew so much about the animals and plants and was delighted to share it. You could honestly tell he took pleasure and pride in his job and the beauty around the park.

This place is okay for a one night stop off but I wouldn't recommend for a longer stay.

very average

Want Tranquility, smartness and utmost hospitality, think Kwalape. It took two days to fix the drain from the shower in room 8, though.

Wonderful place to stay.  Beautiful forest amongst the lodges. Easy to set up rides to Victoria Falls and Chobe park. A must stay!

We recently stayed at Kwalape Lodge for 2 nights. They organised a a river safari and a game drive for us. Nature, our guide, was so knowledgeable and friendly and we saw so many animals including a pride of lions. 
All the staff from Reception to the restaurant were helpful & friendly. 
Noah, the shuttle driver, made our border crossing into Zimbabwe a breeze.

Chalets were clean and comfortable.

Went to kasane on a family vacation and stayed at kwalape holiday resort..I could say a very relaxing and exciting experience the wildlife there is majestic elephants roaming everywhere..and my stay at the resort was very comfortable and welcome..top notch service

The Mosupi family vacay

I stayed here recently for 2 nights. The room was a good size, with air conditioning and fast free wifi in the rooms. There was a limited buffet for dinner, and the food was poor quality. There was also a limited buffet for breakfast, but it was reasonable quality.
