Loved this place. Very peaceful. Well appointed family rooms, with everything we needed for a one night stay. Communal areas were great. Nice friendly staff. We did our own drive in the grounds and saw plenty of wildlife. Will definitely come back but stay in the Mountain Lodge next time.

This facility gave me the impression to be geared to bigger groups. It didn't give the intimate feeling we experienced in many other lodges in Namibia

El lodge tiene un waterhole increíble donde ves muchísimos animales. La zona de la piscina es sin duda lo mejor del hotel, estaba muy bonito y bien cuidado. Desgraciadamente nos tocó un cuarto muy bonito pero el baño olía fatal, deberían mejorarlo. La cena todos los días estaba espectacular, realmente buena. Sin embargo el menú de la comida era muy limitado y debería mejorar, parecía un menú de niño.

Struttura molto bella! Ad ogni modo il prezzo è alto e quindi i servizi dovrebbero essere migliorati. La colazione non includeva il cappuccino che abbiamo dovuto pagare a parte nonostante giá la colazione a buffet avesse un costo importante e non fosse incluso mentre per servizi di massaggio e giro a cavallo se non si prenota prima non c’è abbastanza disponibilità. Il posto ha comunque molte potenziali! Occhio che le tasse sono sempre escluse dai prezzi che vedete e sono piuttosto alte

Leider enttäuschend

Dies war die enttäuschendste Unterkunft auf unserer dreiwöchigen Namibia-Reise. Zwar kamen wir spät an, aber man hätte uns schon noch fragen können ob wir noch am Game Drive teilnehmen wollen. Das Zimmer war schmutzig und am Moskito-Nest befand sich eine grosse Anzahl an Moskitos. Es musste erst einmal gesprüht werden. Beim Dinner gab es nur ein Menu und man zeigte keine Flexibilität. Für einen trockenen Salat sollten wir schliesslich den vollen Preis bezahlen. Leider waren auch zwei grosse Reisegruppen anwesend, die eine unwillkommene Stimmung hinterliessen. Bei Frühstück sollte man für einen Cappuccino extra bezahlen. Dafür gab es die Stimmung wieder kostenlos. Nichts wie weg, dachten wir uns. Wir kommen nicht wieder.

Bel lodge, ottima cucina

Bellissimo lodge e sopratutto ottima cucina, la migliore che abbiamo provato in Namibia! La camera era in verità una casetta, quindi molto spaziosa. Il personale é cortese anche se non molto cordiale.

Die Selbstversorgerunterkünfte (Familienzimmer) sind gut. Hier wäre es prima, wenn auch das Zweibettzimmer mit einem Moskitonetz ausgestattet wird …. Es gibt halt viel kleines Viehzeug.

Our visit got of to a very poor start when the lodge were only expecting us for one night's bed and breakfast, but we had paid Expedia for two night's half-board. The reception staff eventually accepted our voucher for two nights, but the reception manager told us we would have to pay for dinner. It was only after dinner on our second night, when we spoke to Schalk Mueller, the lodge manager, that everything was resolved to our satisfaction. This somewhat spoiled our stay, however it would not put me off returning.

A lovely property with nice facilities and game drive options, with the added bonus of free tea and cake in the afternoon to provide a welcoming feel. The overall impression of the staff was that they're friendly, but with limitations. We didn't require dinner, but wanted an evening drink at the bar. This caused considerable consternation and discussion between 3 members of staff before they would serve us. Similarly our initial enquiry of whether we could check in an hour early, this was met with a come back at check in time (14.00) response, without checking whether the room was ready, or would be ready early. Understandable but very blunt.
