Maun Waterfront Guesthouse sits on the Thamalakane at Disaneng, about ten minutes from Maun village. It is one of the smaller riverside properties in this catalogue and it does one thing: a quiet bed on the water, close enough to town to be practical.

Small properties, and what they trade
Maun has a long tail of small owner-run guesthouses that sit between the big riverside lodges and the campsites. They are usually quieter and often better value, and they almost never have a restaurant, a pool of any size, or an activity desk.
That is a genuine trade rather than a shortcoming. If you are in Maun for one or two nights either side of a Delta flight and you intend to eat in town anyway, the facilities you are giving up are ones you would not have used. Our Maun guide covers what is in town.
Who it suits
- Couples and solo travellers wanting quiet on the river rather than a lodge.
- Short stays either side of a Delta flight, where the facilities of a larger property go unused.
- Travellers with a vehicle, since meals and supplies mean a run into town.
It suits you less if you want catering, a pool, an activity desk, or the ability to walk anywhere.
