Spa Treatments

Each treatment begins with a foot ritual using our Terres d’Afrique scrub, scented with our signature blend of rare African essential oils. A grounding scent ritual follows with a body walk to establish physical contact and relax the body.

An ancient traditional instrument called a kalimba (thumb piano) signals the end of the treatment, gently bringing you back into reality from the depths of relaxation.

"Atzaró Okavango is a dazzling world unto itself amidst one of the world's most extraordinary natural wonders: incredible design; huge, sumptuous rooms full of thoughtful amenities; and scrumptious food served in sprawling common spaces packed with artful details. But the staff is its real magic: endlessly gracious, exceptionally competent, and palpably proud to be a part of this singular camp. The guiding is also second to none: there wasn't one drive where I didn't learn something new and fascinating from the marvellous Mighty. I hope to be lucky enough to return someday!"

Alexandra Kirkman, Forbes, USA

"Set on the expansive plains of the Okavango Delta, Atzaró Okavango seamlessly blends into its surroundings, offering a unique blend of luxury and authentic safari experiences. With its breath-taking views, impeccable service provided by African Bush Camp staff, and proximity to diverse wildlife, this camp is a top choice for travellers looking to explore one of Africa’s most iconic landscapes."

Jessica Hamilton, Mailonline, UK

"Swaddled in checkered blankets by the fire with a cocktail in hand, at times Atzaró Okavango can feel worlds apart from the primal landscape surrounding it. That is, until the trumpet of an elephant foraging its way through camp not 10-meters away leaves you staring in awe. This magical place exists as a part of the living environment of the Delta."

Matt Dutile, Photographer and Journalist, NYC

"Breath-taking on every level."

Melinda Sheckells, Hollywood Reporter, USA

"We had a wonderful stay at Atzaró Okavango. The new lodge is beautifully designed with stunning interiors. The level of service and guiding is exemplary and the location is unparalleled for a luxury safari holiday."

Pandora George, Authentic PR, UK

"Atzaró Okavango represents the ultimate in luxury in the heart of pristine wilderness in Botswana. The lodge and accommodation are truly spectacular – making you not want to leave the camp; however when you do, in the company of the camp’s truly wonderful and expert guides, you will be rewarded by some of the best wildlife viewings in the world! We absolutely loved our time here.”

Sam Mullen, Quintesentially, UK

"Atzaró Okavango Camp is a happy place, not only for oneself. Isolation and immersion in nature take place with the utmost respect for the environment and all living creatures. Like the elephants crossing the bush that can be seen from the swimming pool of one's suite. There is luxury, of course, but it is responsible luxury. And there's nothing like being at the Boma at dawn for breakfast, waiting for the first safari of the day. One more plus: the staff. Everyone, from the guide to the chef, from the bartender to the waiter, is the best you could find."

Vito DeBiasi, Harper’s BAZAAR, Italy
