taj and &beyond (cc africa) also have various camps now. oberoi has 1, competing with aman.

i personally dont really see a comparison between african beach resorts and accommodations/islands of north island and fregate island, or value of maldives.

(FS seychelles seems mixed here, and maia's published rates seem high)
Kagehitokiri -- thanks for posting Ericka's report -- Sounds terrific and I'm definitely starting to think about doing a trip like that. Agree with your evaluation of the relative merits of the beach resorts.

I would note for the OP that in Erika's post when she says that the park in India was more beautiful than anything in Botswana except the Okavango Delta, Mombo is right in the heart of the delta and very beautiful. This is all a bit of apples and oranges, but interesting nonetheless.
