Local tip
A stop at Palm Afrique Lodge suits travellers using the A3 who want Ghanzi town amenities alongside a quieter reserve setting.

Palm Afrique Lodge is a three-star lodge on the edge of Ghanzi, Botswana, positioned just off the A3 Trans-Kalahari Road. The lodge occupies a private nature reserve in the Kalahari, giving it a quiet setting while keeping Ghanzi town centre, restaurants, supermarkets and fuel stations within reach. The location also places the lodge close to the Central Kalahari National Park, with the Xade gate approximately 160 kilometres away.

The lodge combines individually decorated rooms with a relaxed, nature-focused style. Its architecture and landscaping sit alongside the surrounding reserve, where antelope such as springbok, zebra, sable, oryx, eland and kudu may be seen. Birdlife is particularly notable during the rainy season, making the property suitable for travellers who enjoy watching wildlife without staying inside a national park.

Guest facilities include a lounge, a swimming pool and a bar serving cold beer and gin and tonic. These shared spaces support an easygoing atmosphere for couples, families, friends and travellers taking a break from a longer road journey. The lodge also suits business visitors seeking a peaceful overnight base near Ghanzi, as well as leisure travellers using the A3 between Botswana and neighbouring destinations.

Food arrangements include the opportunity to sample local Botswana cuisine. The lodge is therefore a practical stop for visitors interested in combining a comfortable stay with a taste of regional food. The reserve setting, nearby town services and straightforward road access make Palm Afrique Lodge well suited to a quiet stopover, a wildlife-oriented stay or a base for exploring the Ghanzi area and the wider Kalahari.
