Leroo La Tau is built on 15m high cliffs above the Boteti River, which gives guests opportunities for spectacular views and wildlife sightings from this raised vantage point. During the dry season, the Boteti area is populated by up to 30000 wildebeest and zebra, which have migrated south to the Makgadikgadi in search of grazing and, in turn, bring predator activity. However, Leroo La Tau is not only about lion, zebra and wildebeest – other species found around the lodge are leopard, brown and spotted hyena, impala, kudu, jackal, porcupines, genets and caracal, to name a few.

Accommodation at Leroo La Tau is in 12 luxury glass and thatch suites on individual raised wooden platforms that all provide spectacular views overlooking the riverbed and grassy plains and into Makgadikgadi National Park. The family room, with two bedrooms and two bathrooms, is conveniently located close to the main area. The interiors of the en suite rooms are tastefully decorated and blend in with the natural surroundings.

The main reception and lounge areas sit high on the cliff overlooking the Boteti riverbed and the sweeping scrub and grasslands of the Makgadikgadi. Guests can enjoy a drink at the bar while appreciating the unparalleled view of animals congregating at the water hole below. Alternatively, guests can relax around the pool, watching the herds of zebra and wildebeest coming down to drink at the waterhole. Evenings are spent around the fireplace that overlooks Boteti River bordering the Makgadikgadi National Park in front of the lodge.
