Kanana is a land and water camp offering the best of both worlds on safari in the Okavango Delta. The camp is also situated in a private concession which means they make the rules and the rules are you can enjoy guided walking safaris and night drives - one up on the folks in the National Parks.

The rooms at Stanely Safari Lodge are all unique.
