Adventure, enchantment and natural luxury - all delivered with a quiet, understated charm.

Located on a vast private concession bordering the Moremi Game Reserve in Botswana’s Okavango Delta and with an enormity of wildlife diversity to offer guests, Sanctuary Baines’ Camp is one of the premium destinations in the world for a dynamic safari experience and offers a truly unique wilderness safari in Africa.

Named after the 19th-century explorer and painter Thomas Baines, this is Sanctuary’s smallest camp within Botswana, home to just six luxurious suites set on elevated platforms in the tree line, and with wooden decks that offer expansive views over the permanent water of the Boro River and a lagoon teeming with life. With star baths and sky beds on your private deck, this is a romantic oasis.

Sanctuary Baines’ Camp is an eco-friendly property built using only commercially grown wood, with over 150,000 recycled aluminium cans incorporated within the walls to provide insulation. The camp is raised above the permanent water of the Boro River while wooden walkways connect the main areas and luxury rooms. The swimming pool and the wide wooden deck that surrounds the main dining and sitting room is the ideal place to relax while observing the varied wildlife present here. The game on offer to guests is truly thrilling, with fantastic opportunities to see lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, cheetah, giraffe, impala, zebra, wild dog, hyena, and hippo. Guests may enjoy night-time game drives for nocturnal species or head out onto the Mokoro for a chance to explore the waterways and lagoons that make up the Okavango Delta.
