January 09, 2012: Mombo Camp No.1 in Botswana in Travel + Leisure’s Top 500
January 2012 – Wilderness is proud to announce that Mombo and Little Mombo achieved one of the highest rankings in Travel + Leisure magazine’s Top 500 – The World’s Best Hotels 2012 (Africa and Middle East), coming first in Botswana. With its high score of 94.82 the camp is also one of the world’s Top 45 Hotels, one of nine African properties in this category.
This is the tenth anniversary collection of the 500 top-rated hotels from around the world as selected by readers of Travel + Leisure Magazine. Every year T+L readers vote on thousands of hotels based on rooms, location, service, food, and value.
Given that Botswana is one of Africa’s foremost wildlife and ecotourism destinations and one that embraces the ‘low volume, high revenue’ model we are thrilled to be recognized in this way. It is an honor that is particularly pleasing as Botswana is Wilderness’ birthplace and the conservation of the Okavango Delta of primary importance to the company. In addition, a cutting edge solar farm is currently being established at Mombo, meaning that the generator and the burning of fossil fuel will become completely obsolete – thus proving that it is possible to be luxurious and have a lighter footprint on the Earth.
