Guest Reviews

• Obonolo (8/5): -
• Melanie Gude (10/5): - The staff was very friendly. Connie and KG are both incredible people. There were electricity issues in the whole town the first day, but the staff was extremely helpful in trying to make our stay as good as possible, and they succeeded! I was amazed to learn that Conie is a female guide. I admire her so much, and I'm sad that I had everything booked before coming. I would have loved the opportunity to go on a safari with her. Maybe next time!
• Manfred (9/5): - Die Eigentümer waren sehr zuvorkommend und haben uns alle Wünsche erfüllt. Alle Game Drives gebucht und sogar den Shuttle nach Vic Falls. Hervorragend.
• Manfred (9/5): - Familiäre Unterkunft die alle Wünsche erfüllt. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt
• Charlotte (10/5): Exceptionnel - Nous avons tout simplement adoré notre séjour au Botswana, chez Connie et KG ! Dès notre arrivée, nous avons été accueillis avec une grande gentillesse et beaucoup d’attention. Connie et KG se sont occupés de toute la logistique, notamment de la navette pour venir jusqu’au Botswana et pour le retour, ce qui nous a vraiment facilité le voyage. Nous avons eu la chance de faire un safari avec Connie et c’était une expérience incroyable. Elle possède une connaissance impressionnante des animaux, des oiseaux et de tout l’écosystème. C’était à la fois instructif passionnant et vraiment fun. Nous avons aussi fait un safari sur l’eau, tout aussi mémorable. Ce qui est génial c’est qu’ils proposent directement les activités ce qui rend l’organisation très simple. KG nous a également accompagnés pour découvrir plusieurs endroits : la ferme de crocodiles, la police station Baobab et même le pont qui relie quatre pays. C’était une immersion complète et très enrichissante. Côté repas : rien à redire c’était exceptionnel ! Nous avons dîné deux soirs sur place : un soir avec un chef qui nous a préparé un menu entrée-plat-dessert absolument délicieux, avec des portions très généreuses, et un autre soir avec un plat typique cuisiné par Connie. Ce moment partagé avec eux était vraiment chaleureux et authentique. En plus de tout cela, les prix sont très attractifs que ce soit pour le logement, les activités ou les repas. Le rapport qualité-prix est excellent. Nous avons énormément apprécié la compagnie de Connie et KG leur bienveillance et leur énergie. C’est une adresse que nous recommandons les yeux fermés, et nous espérons vraiment pouvoir revenir un jour ! RAS

• Vincent (10/5): A hidden gem in Kazungula - The feeling of being home away from home. POVI is an absolute gem. I spent 4 nights there and the peace, warmth and beautiful natural aesthetic of the place made the stay unforgettable. The family hosting the home are incredibly welcoming. It truly feels less like accomodation and more like a peaceful home away from home. Highly recommended.❤️❤️💯 None
• alfonso (9/5): - Ottima cena preparata per noi con grande attenzione, complimenti!
• Issei (9/5): 最高 - サービスが素晴らしかった。部屋も清潔で、スタッフは親切だった。 立地があまり良くはないため、タクシー移動が必須。にもかかわらず、ボツワナ人のタクシー運転手はなかなか来ない。これはホテル側の問題ではないが。

• Manuel (10/5): - Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo. Bellissima location. Posto tranquillo sia per dormire che per rilassarsi. Stanza ampia ,pulita e letti comodissimi. La proprietaria molto gentile offre anche safari,crociere sul chobe cascate Vittoria e cena ottima . Nulla
• Guest (7/5): We enjoyed our stay and made friends that we would love to see again! - n/a n/a
• Markus (10/5): Exceptional - The host was very kind and helpful. She organized transfer to the Victoria Falls for us. Great breakfast and super comfortable room.
• Hollis (9/5): Would stay here again. Felt like home Very warm and kind Connie is amazing - Cute room! Loved the paint and originality. Connie was the best made you feel comfortable. Arranged safaris and boat trips and airport! A+ for a solo female traveler A bit far away from town, but easy access via Taxi or Connie.
• Tomas (10/5): Exceptional - Connie takes care of her guests like no one else anywhere. She and her team do everything possible to ensure that guests feel as comfortable as possible. The holiday home is impeccably clean, and there is constant spraying to keep mosquitoes at bay. The location is excellent—just a few minutes' drive from the border and Kasane, where you can enjoy both land and water safaris. Nothing
• Ching (10/5): Exceptional - The owners KG and Connie are kind and helpful. Perfectly arranged the tours I wanted and even my transport to the Zambia border. Would recommend anyone who come to Kasane to stay here.
• Dion (10/5): You won’t regret staying here — Connie and her family make you feel truly cared for, and the whole experience is simply - Are you checking this place to see if it’s good? Stop thinking — just go! Connie and her family are amazing! They truly take care of you and listen to your needs. The accommodation is super comfortable, and everything about the stay is just perfect. Honestly, you won’t regret it. Highly recommended!
• Daniel (10/5): A place to choose - The apartment is very comfortable, with wide and good beds and all what you can need, for instance a personal fridge. The place is wide and cozy and you can have delicious breakfast and dinner cooked by the owners, you can also cook with your own kitchenette. But the most remarkable for me was the kindness of the hosts, we had very interesting conversations and felt like at home. On top of that they can help you to arrange wonderful game drive activities and others. Without any doubt I would recommend the stay in POVI holiday home.
• Tze-hung (8/5): Very good -
• Nico (10/5): Connie is a star - Not very busy like in town, The host Connie and her husband was very helpfull. She have book our trip to Chobe sunsetcruise and Victoria waterfalls. Wfi was good. There was hot water everytime in shower. Will recommend her .
• Clarence (10/5): Felt like being at home and great value! - POVI was like being at a family member’s house. You are in a real local neighborhood and Connie is a great hostess. My room was clean and tidied up daily. There was a refrigerator, air conditioning and mosquito net over the bed. Breakfast was served on time daily and I opted for lighter fare (coffee, juice, cereal and fruit). Additional items are available. The location is close to Chobe National Park and the tiny “village” area. I found it refreshing to relax at POVI after days of activities. Connie offered dinners prepared by her chef but I made my own arrangements. I had a car and that makes things easier but small Honda taxis are plentiful in the neighborhood and cheap. Connie is a great resource but modest. I accidentally found out that she has made history and is a pioneer featured in a long New York Times article. She was part of the first team of all-female guides in Botswana. All in all, if you want an authentic local experience and can forego luxury for a short time, POVI is easy on the pocketbook and good for the spirit. It is secure too. GPS doesn’t work so crucial to get clear directions before you start to look for POVI.
• Robert (9/5): A really nice place, well-run and very reasonably priced. - The location was fine, although a little hard to find - Google maps is not very reliable here. The neighbourhood was quiet, and pleasant to walk around. It was about 15 minutes from Kasane by shared taxi. The owner, Connie, and her family were delightful, and very helpful. She showed me how to get into town, and arranged two excellent wildlife tours, one on the river, and one in a truck. The breakfast was very basic, but OK.
• Denis (10/5): Exceptional -
• Motlalepula (9/5): Superb -
• George (9/5): The host was very friendly and helpful. Assisted with taxi to and from the airport. - Breakfast was good.
• Precious (9/5): Superb -
• Raubenheimer (6/5): Pleasant -
• Lemogang (9/5): Best stay - Small and nice location Nothing
• Kholisani (10/5): Exceptional -
• Lukas (10/5): excellent host! - WOW! This was one of my best experiences! Connie is an excellent host, who goes far and beyond! The entire time of our stay, Connie was making sure we were comfortable and happy. We arrived very early in the morning and Connie let us check in without problems. She was always around to have lovely chat, the room was perfect, even small things like putting documentaries about Chobe national park, while she heard us getting ready for the game drive made us feel really comfortable. Connie was so nice and hospitable, that I regretted we didn't come earlier to stay longer.. Unfortunately, we had to proceed to Francistown. I fully recommend POVI Holiday home Well.. I have to write something here... because booking.com does not allow me to save the review... So..the only thing I didn´t like was that we had to leave :D....
• Bakisani (8/5): Superb - Breakfast very good I loved every thing
• Holly (10/5): Fabulous - Our stay at the POVI Guest House was excellent. Connie is one of the nicest human beings I’ve ever met. The accommodation was basic but clean, and she went above and beyond to help. You can book activities through the guest house; we booked game drives and river cruises, all of which were excellent. Highly recommend staying here.
• George (8/5): Very good -
