  博茨瓦纳,非洲第一富国。璀璨的钻石为博茨瓦纳人带来财富,而为这个干燥的内陆国度带来绿色生机的,则是坐落在国家西北部的奥卡万戈三角洲。在这个世界最大的内陆三角洲上,自然的灵动得以充分展现,成群的斑马、水牛以及黑尾牛羚为三角洲带来盎然生机。
  然而,奥卡万戈三角洲并不仅仅是野生动物的天堂,在这片充满浓郁草原风情的土地上,依水而建的贝尔蒙德老鹰岛旅舍,为来此度假的游客们创造了别样的居停体验。

  otswana is the wealthiest of African countries. Whereas diamonds bring wealth for Botswana people, the Okavango Delta in the northwest of the country injects vigor to this dry inland country. In the world's largest inland delta, the resourcefulness of nature is fully demonstrated here, herds of zebra, buffalo and black tailed wildebeest all contribute to the delta vitality. The Okavango Delta, however, is not merely a paradise for wild animals, the water-based Belmond Eagle Island Lodge, Botswana, has created innovational experience for the visitors of this resort with its rich grassland atmosphere.

  野趣 随时随地的草原情怀
  作为贝尔蒙德集团(Belmond,原东方快车集团)旗下三家博茨瓦纳野外旅舍之一,老鹰岛旅舍(Belmond Eagle Island Lodge)与莫瑞米禁猎区的Belmond Khwai River Lodge及乔贝国家公园的Belmond Savute Elephant Lodge分别处于独立的生态系统之中。坐落于私人岛屿之上的老鹰岛旅舍,邻近奥卡万戈三角洲内多处最深河域,亦是联合国教科文组织世界遗产地,特殊的地理位置与人文地位赋予了他与其他两家不同的气质与灵性。
  经过大规模改建,于2015年11月重开的世界顶级旅舍Belmond Eagle Island Lodge以其全新帐篷客房、餐厅及酒廊展现在世人面前,旅舍的陈设摆件皆由当地工匠以本土物料悉心打造,与视野之内的自然美景相得益彰。室内室外,自然的美景与工匠的手艺相应生辉,呈献新奇独特的地道体验。
  除此之外,旅舍更精心打造了徒步和私人直升机猎奇之旅,亦以快艇、大型平底船及当地特色独木舟莫科洛 (mokoro) 提供水上游猎活动。水陆两栖的全方位探索让旅客深入三角洲的心脏地带,这样独特的绿洲之行在非洲可谓独一无二。
  Nestled in the most unique ecosystem, Belmond Eagle Island Lodge is one of the three Belmond safari lodges in Botswana, along with Belmond Khwai River Lodge in the Moremi Wildlife Reserve and Belmond Savute Elephant Lodge in Chobe National Park. Belmond Eagle Island Lodge is perched on a private island encircled by some of the deepest stretches of the Okavango Delta and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Such special geographical and cultural traits have injected additional spiritual sensitivities to Belmond Eagle Island Lodge, unlike the other two lodges.
  Following an almost total rebuild, Belmond Eagle Island Lodge in Botswana reopened in November 2015, bringing fresh new tented guest accommodation, restaurant and lounge created by local artisans and materials, and offering an insight into the region's natural beauty and an experience of originality.
  In addition, the lodge offers walking and air safaris in a private helicopter, as well as motorboat safaris, barge cruises and mekoro (a local canoe) safaris. Such a comprehensive water-focused safari experience into the heart of Okavango cannot be found elsewhere in Africa.   (水陆两栖的全方位探索让旅客深入三角洲的心脏地带,这样独特的绿洲之行在非洲可谓独一无二。

  客房 咸水湖畔的原始气息
  身居非洲草原,若居住于传统酒店的楼阁之中,岂不浪费了眼前这一番美景?为迎合酒店所处的特殊环境,旅舍设置的12间焕然一新的豪华帐篷客房如同璀璨耀眼的钻石散落在奥卡万戈三角洲的咸水湖畔。房间所运用的绿色和淡黄色与色调柔和的草原融为一体;淡雅的灰色与旅舍所在地的地貌及附近觅食的大象相映成趣;而浅金和鲜黄两色则令人联想起非洲湿地上充满活力的雀鸟。每间面积82平方米的豪华帐篷设有露台,下榻的客人在帐篷内就可以饱览迷人湖景。帐篷中最令人瞩目的焦点在于面向三角洲景致的特大睡床,其手工铜面床头板与博茨瓦纳的采矿传统交相辉映,灵感来自栖息于潟湖的野生动物,营造出光线在床上舞动的效果。
  帐篷客房巧妙地将当地的独特风情与世界潮流风尚相结合,步入客房,乍看之下简单素净的房间处处考究,造型犹如探险者工具箱的迷你吧、家具表面的手缝油蜡皮面料,以及饰有帆布和皮革口袋的定制桌子,每个极具本土特色的陈设都兼具时尚奢华元素,任何细节都一丝不苟。每间客房都设有私人休憩池,豪华浴室中的大型浴缸、双人盥洗台、步入式衣橱以及可饱览窗外三角洲景观的隐蔽户外淋浴间,都给人以豪华大气之感。

  Its handmade copper finish headboard references Botswana's mining tradition and its design, inspired by the wildlife that inhabits the lagoons, allows light to filter through and dance on the bed.)
  As you are in the African grassland, it only makes sense if you are also in easy access to its precious view. To fully fit in to the surroundings, the lodge launches 12 new Deluxe Tented Rooms, so luxurious that they acted as 12 glinting diamonds scattered by the Okavango salt-water lake. Like the gentle hues of the surrounding grassland, the colour palette of the room combines greens and soft yellows with subtle grey tones, reflecting the land itself as well as the elephants that feed nearby. Shades of dusty gold and bright yellow have been added to suggest the vibrancy of birds. These 82 square-meter rooms boast their own outdoor deck, offering access to a splendid view from within the room. The centrepiece is an oversized bed with views onto the delta. Its handmade copper finish headboard references Botswana's mining tradition and its design, inspired by the wildlife that inhabits the lagoons, allows light to filter through and dance on the bed.
  The Tented Rooms offer contemporary luxury perfectly blended with local traditions. Every detail in the room has been carefully thought-out, from a mini-bar crafted in the style of an explorer's toolbox to the hand-stitched waxy leather upholstery on furniture and a custom-designed table with canvas and leather pockets. Each Tented Room features a private plunge pool, luxurious bathroom with a large bathtub, a double vanity unit and a walk in wardrobe, as well as a walled outdoor shower with a window looking onto the delta.

  餐饮非洲风情的别样梦幻
  旅舍的公共空间进行彻底翻新后,带来更宽敞的接待处、室内外和谐相融的餐厅,以及附设酒吧和图书室的酒廊。蜿蜒的小路连接着旅舍的各个部分,如同乘坐小船游走在草原间纵横蜿蜒的河道一样,在缓步挪移之中突显出不同角度的旅舍与草原景致。
  酒店的主餐厅同样隐藏于草原风貌之中,位于餐厅中央的开放式家庭厨房和燃木薄饼烤炉,为餐厅平添了家的氛围,而餐厅中随处可见的探险工具及鲜艳的昆虫摆设,则为这个半开放的空间营造出冒险探索的意味。取材自精巧鸟巢的时尚灯具于入夜后为整个空间投下斑驳的影子,颇具非洲风情。
  由餐厅穿过户外平台后,即进入了酒廊。旅舍的酒廊拥有以当地木材手工打造的吧台和巨大壁炉,实为悠闲放松的理想之所。酒廊尽量保留自然元素,于设计中融入古老的西克莫无花果树,并配设吊椅让宾客观赏美景。被奥卡万戈三角洲河域吸引而来的蝴蝶,亦成为了装饰的灵感来源。酒廊内缀有缤纷夺目的手制金属蝴蝶,宛如于空中飞舞一样,在光线照耀下更添梦幻气息。
  在户外空间,旅舍于河道旁边设置了极具非洲特色的营火堆和烧烤炉,毗邻营火堆的Fish Eagle Bar用色参照当地原生鸟类非洲海雕(Fish Eagle) ,以其胸膛的雪白色、身体的棕色及喙部的鲜黄色为主调,鲜亮的颜色与强烈的对比让人联想到非洲草原的绚丽以及草原生物的灵动。

  Collections of explorer's instruments and displays of brightly coloured insects add to the sense of discovery, and contemporary lights inspired by intricate birds' nests weave intriguing shadows across the space in the evening.)
  After a total renovation, the public areas of the lodge now have a roomier reception area with a new restaurant offering inside and outside dining and new lounge area with a bar and a library. Just like the numerous water channels that weave through the grasslands, the design flows through the spaces, highlighting the stunning delta views from various vantage points.
  The main lodge restaurant also has its secret hiding place among the grasslands. At the heart of the restaurant is a family-style open kitchen with a wood-burning pizza oven, creating a very homey set-up. Collections of the explorer's instruments and displays of brightly coloured insects add to the sense of discovery, and contemporary lights inspired by intricate birds' nests weave intriguing shadows across the space in the evening.
  Through the path of an outside deck, you can easily go through the restaurant to the lounge. Featuring an artisanal style bar made from locally sourced timber and a huge fireplace, the lounge is a place in which to relax. Natural elements are retained wherever possible with an ancient sycamore fig tree being incorporated into the design, sheltering a hanging cocoon swing on which to enjoy the views. Butterflies are drawn to the water in the Okavango Delta and have also been used as inspiration in elements of decoration. Inside the lounge, a kaleidoscope of handmade metal butterflies appears to fly through the air, illuminated to enhance the magical effect.
  In the outdoor areas, the lodge has included a new campfire and barbecue, in an enclave directly on the edge of the water channels. Located close to the campfire is the Fish Eagle Bar, whose colour palette is inspired by the distinctive snow-white chest, brown body and bright yellow beak of the indigenous bird. The bright colours and strong contrast remind people once again of the splendor of the African savannah and its magnificent creatures.
  夕阳时分,大地披上了华丽的金色,老鹰岛旅舍如同镶嵌在奥卡万戈三角洲上的夺目钻石,在辽阔起伏的草原上静静璀璨,充满着时尚奢华气息,却毫无与周边古朴豪放的非洲草原环境的违和感。坐在旅社酒廊的吊椅上,感受着来自湖面的阵阵清风,自由呼吸着混有青草味儿的空气,碰触神秘的非洲大陆与湿地草原的丝丝脉搏,体味与自然融为一体的和谐美妙,回归到人与自然和谐相处的纯洁与淡然。
  By sunset, the delta is soaked in flamboyant golden colour. Belmond Eagle Island Lodge looks like dazzling diamonds embedded in the Okavango Delta, at peace with its own luxurious existence amongst the simple yet wild African savannah. Sitting in the lounge hanging chair, let the breeze from the lake brush past, and breath in the air mixed with the smell of the grass, this experience will give you the pulse of the mysterious African wetlands. It is a pure joy to integrate with nature and return to the state of harmony, purity and detachment found in the interaction of mankind and nature
