Grounds and rooms need touchups.

Manager nice guy and helped a lot. Room ok, but could use some cleaning and updates. The grounds are bush-like so dusty.

A bit expensive and the room could be updated, maybe a shower instead of a bath, especially with the water shortages.

Very welcoming, great staff and a good breakfast. All the staff were really helpful and the services and location was good.

The staff was super friendly and helpful. They accommodated every our request and helped to ship some things that we accidentally left at the property.

We unfortunately never got to stay over as our flights we're unexpectedly changed but I wanted to specifically call out and thank the property for being exceptionally responsive on the app, helpful to all our messages and willing to be flexible. If your customer service is anything to go by, I can just imagine how great it is in person! Hopefully next time!

everything was perfect

from the moment we arrived until the moment we left, everything was perfect. we received a very warm welcome, the room was spacious & comfortable, the breakfast was excellent. the property is very quiet with a beautiful pool in a garden full of birds, but still close to town.

There was nothing that could have been better. This really is a lovely place to stay.

Our stay at the Waterfront in Maun was wonderful. We stayed twice (for 1 night either side of our flights into the Okavango Delta). The Staff were wonderful, the greeting when we arrived was warm and inviting. The Room was lovely, air conditioned, and with a lovely view across the River (even though the Riverbed was quite dry due to the Drought). The Swimming Pool area is beautiful, and we had plenty of time to relax and chill out after a lovely swim. The Breakfast in the morning is buffet style, but delicious with lots of home-made options. It really set us up for the day. The Staff could not have been more helpful, and we will certainly come back and stay here again. I would recommend The Waterfront Maun to anyone.

Our stay was perfect. We were very happy with The Waterfront.

From the moment we arrived at this beautiful Guesthouse, we were made to feel so welcome. Nothing was too much trouble for the lovely Staff. The rooms were very comfortable, and the view was lovely.

The generator outside our room was to loud for a good nights sleep.

Very nice and competent staff, very comfy room and bed, excellent view.

Stayed 1 night. Really friendly welcome upon arrival. Not so friendly on checking out. Felt like we became an inconvenience

Lovely garden area where the swimming pool is. Fire lit in the evening with free marshmallows to toast. Close to the airport

Everything was great!!! No problems or concerns No complaints.

Everything was absolutely fantastic. Management and staff were wonderful, helpful, friendly, professional, talented- and hotel was what I was looking for: very quiet, peaceful, no traffic noise, set in nature. This was my first trip to Africa, Botswana, Maun… decided to give myself a few days to adjust to time change before safari ‘proper’ started- but this hotel has ‘safari’ benefits: birds, animals in the river in front of my room. I took a helicopter to Tsodilo hills on one of the days. The rest of the time, I relaxed by the beautiful pool, watched birds, had lovely conversations with other guests and staff. The hotel has a fantastic driver who finds you at the airport, takes you the restaurant of your choice for dinner (a short trip, and well worth it to be able to stay in this location). If your onward journey includes a safari itinerary, let them know you are staying here. They call Mack Air. Mack Air figures out who to get everyone to their camps the day before departures, then calls the hotel to tell you what time to be at the airport. The hotel arranges with the absolutely safe professional driver, who is there like magic to help you on the way to your next destination. No guesswork. You do pay a fee (very reasonable) for rides, and it is proper to tip the driver. Full breakfast is beyond fantastic- everything is freshly baked with amazing ingredients and spices, so many options to choose from. You can have eggs, several types of fresh baked bread, cereals, muffins, fresh fruit…anything you want. This is a very special place. When planning your trip, you could give yourself several days, take day trips from hotel. You can absolutely trust the management to look out for your best interests. I hope to see them again.

Shower water is sourced from the Delta and there is a discoloration and slight odor, however complimentary bottled water is available daily.

The lodge is daily managed by the kindest couple who were so attentive and nice- I felt immediately I was amongst friends. The location is perfect, not far from the bus rank or airport and fairly close to the Delta. The bed was comfortable, mosquito nets were available and there is a fridge, micro, and electric kettle in the room. Waking up to the best coffee latte and homemade breads were absolutely worth this stay-alone. They make these homemade breads daily on-site, it literally felt like I was back home at my grandmother's for breakfast. The staff was helpful in organising a mokoro trip on the Delta, and they made all the arrangements for me. They have a preferred taxi service who I used and I felt completely safe and comfortable using it. I would absolutely recommend this lodge and will definitely return. There are very well kept gardens on site and a nice pool on the property. A very comfortable stay between excursions.

Nothing.. all very good

Small paradise to recover after the bush. Great management, lovely staff and delicious breakfast. The rooms are spacious, and the balcony gives you a nice view on the river.

Maybe a microwave would have been good. But no biggie.

Location is good, peaceful, quiet. Breakfast good since everyone is a tourist and needed to fuel up before heading out for the day.

Options for the evening could have been better explained - especially the option to have a meal delivered. We were handed menus for the evening and chose one and went by cab.

Lovely and genuine african lodge with superb staff and lovely rooms looking over the river.

Bathroom, see above

On arrival we were greeted very nicely, chilled drinks were waiting for us. We had a large room on the first floor with a balcony and a view of the river. The bathroom was also very spacious, but the sanitary facilities, although modern, were unkempt. It was probably due to the proximity to the river that the bathroom had an unpleasant smell. The accommodation is absolutely recommendable for one night, the breakfast was also sufficient and very good.
