Hotels with Swimming Pool in South-East

For many visitors, South-East Botswana is the gateway to the country's greatest natural treasure: the vast, salt-encrusted plains of the Makgadikgadi Pans. This region is far more than a transit point, however. It’s where you can arrange guided quad-biking adventures across the otherworldly pans or plan a journey to see the ancient baobabs of Kubu Island. The urban center here is Gaborone, a relaxed capital where you can visit the National Museum and Gallery before enjoying a sundowner at the Mokolodi Nature Reserve just outside the city.

This area suits independent travelers and small groups looking to organize their safari circuit, with good road connections north to the Central Kalahari Game Reserve and the Okavango Delta. Staying in Gaborone offers the widest range of amenities and is practical for business travelers or those wanting a comfortable base. Sir Seretse Khama International Airport provides the main air link, and while having your own vehicle offers freedom, reliable tour operators based here can handle all logistics.

Accommodation in South-East Botswana is predominantly functional hotels and guesthouses catering to business and government traffic, alongside a few comfortable lodges near the nature reserves. On HOTEVI, you’ll find options like the Cresta Lodge in Gaborone, which provides a reliable pool and conference facilities. Choices range from budget-friendly city hotels to a handful of upscale safari lodges on private concessions bordering the wild spaces.
