Named after the famed explorer and artist Thomas Baines, Baines’ Camp is set in the picturesque surrounds of the Boro River. It has five elegant suites set on elevated platforms, offering breath-taking views of the river and a nearby lagoon. Each suite features a comfortable four-poster bed – which can be moved outdoors for a spectacular night under the stars – an ensuite bathroom, personal bar, ceiling fans and a private veranda.
The guest areas include a large veranda (which is ideal for outdoor dining and offers spectacular river views) as well as a swimming pool with two salas (open-air lounges) on either side – the perfect location to cool off on a sultry afternoon. The adventurous can explore the many winding waterways on a mokoro (traditional dugout canoe) or in specially adapted motorboats. Game drives in open 4×4 safari vehicles and walking safaris are fantastic opportunities to spot wildlife.
