Guest Reviews

• Inigo (9/5): Great place next to Windhoek! - Okapuka fue nuestro primer Lodge en nuestro viaje de 3 semanas en Namibia, Y ha sido uno de los que más nos ha gustado. Es genial que en el lodge estén las avestruces paseando tranquilamente y que Lucie se deje tocar. En cuanto a la comida: MUY buena!! No está incluída como en el resto de lodges que hemos ido, PERO merece la pena. Probamos Oryx (sin duda de los mejores platos que he tomado en estas 3 semanas) y el pescado increíble también. Para sorpresa, habíamos cogido una cabaña que tenía 2 cuartos…no usamos el segundo cuarto El game drive merece mucho la pena! Nos encantó tanto el de medio día como el del atardecer
• Christopher (5/5): Gute Lage, Reinigung mangelhaft, Personal sehr teilnahmslos - Gute Lage mit schönem Game Reserve Bettlaken waren verschmutzt und Bad nicht zufriedendstellend gereinigt
• Constanze (10/5): -
• Mariette (9/5): -
• Robert (9/5): Tolle Lodge- Gamedrive am Abend was super.Sogar Nashörner gesehen. Gerne wieder -

• Hanna (8/5): -
• Marja (9/5): -
• Velta (10/5): - Amazing place to stay, especially if it is last night within country. Delicious dinner and exceptional breakfast. 💯 recommend. Location. Food. Comfort
• Daphne (9/5): - Espaço muito agradável, funcionários educados e gentis. Comida boa. Pode melhorar o estacionamento dos clientes nos quartos, não há um esspaço bem definido para guardar o carro e falta acesso adequado até a entrada do quarto. O que torna difícel apenas se estiver com malas grandes.
• Andtea (9/5): - The staff are AMAZING!!! The GP's coming from Okahandja directions takes to a very unsafe, wrong off ramp - taking you into bushes. I was very , very upset. When I complained about it they said that they know about it!!!!! That is completely unacceptable. From Windhoek it seems the travelers do not have a problem. They need to send message beforehand to there guests about the wrong GP's directions!!!
• Andrew (10/5): - Beautiful lodge set in scenic grounds with excellent food and staff
• Johan & Hanli (10/5): -
• Maria (10/5): Highly recommended - Lovely property not far from Windhoek with great game driving. Beautiful staff showing a genuine caring attitude
• Jorge (10/5): Perfect relaxation - Spacious bedroom and beautifully decorated - the bed comfort was awesome. Delicious food served in a lovely environment. We really enjoyed the game drives, highly recommend taking both of them: morning & sundowner All employees were absolutely adorable. More signage on the highway needed pointing to the property
• Anna (10/5): Beautiful Lodge with Comfortable Facilities - Beautiful property close to Windhoek. Loved the grounds and the main lodge. The wifi and ac worked well. The food at the lodge and the services at the nearby spa were both wonderful. Nice views and lots of animals can be seen from the rooms. The water in our room stopped working on our last day mid shower. The price of the drives is higher than most other lodges we stayed at in Namibia. Google Maps directions to the lodge are incorrect.
• Yauhen (10/5): -
• Francoise (9/5): Un superbe séjour - 24h avant de reprendre l’avion , proche de l’aéroport , un séjour parfait pour se ressourcer . Le petit safari nous a permis de plus de voir beaucoup d’animaux avec un guide à l’écoute Pas grand chose

• rswds (10/5): Schöner erster Stopp nach Ankunft in Namibia - Unterkunft, Essen und Service waren sehr gut. Wir haben um 6:30 an einem Wildlife- Drive teilgenommen. Der war sehr gut geführt mit zahlreichen Tiersichtungen und guten Einführungen zu den Tierarten. Zu sehen waren in freier Wildbahn u.a. Giraffen, Gnus, Springböcke, Säbelantilope, Oryxantilope, Elenantilope, Maskenantilope, Warzenscheine, Fuchs, Impalaantilope ... Alles OK

• Aletta G (10/5): Relax and get spoiled by staff - Location is brilliant. Staff was outstanding. Love Lucy the Ostrich . Fecilitys are magnificent Everything
• buczko (10/5): Ein wunderschöner Aufenthalt, da auch die Tiere wie Strauße sich frei auf dem Grundstück bewegen - Hervorragend, hier werden alle Wünsche erfüllt. Tiere wie Strauße, Springböcke können sich frei auf dem Grundstück bewegen und kommen ihnen sehr nahe. Daher spürt man immer die Natur. Die Lodge liegt wunderschön und jeder Moment war ein Genuss. Ein nur sehr kleine Anmerkung. Beim GameDrive kommt man der Straße sehr nahe, so dass Straßengeräusche das Naturerlebnis etwas einschränkt.
• Peter (9/5): Im Umfeld von Windhoek die perfekte lodge. - Game Drive mit ausgezeichneten Guide.
• Kay (10/5): Eine traumhafte Unterkunft für den Beginn oder das Ende eines Namibia-Urlaubes. Man sollte auf jeden Fall einen Game Dri - Essen, Ausflug
• Melody (10/5): -
• Florian (10/5): -
• Daniela (8/5): -
• Edgar Dettmann (7/5): - Leider waren die beiden gebuchten Zimmer für mich am genau gegenüberliegendem Bereich der Anlage.Absonst war alles in Ordnung.Sehr gute Destination in der Nähe von Windhoek um Tiere zu sehem.
• Eileen_H (10/5): Tasteful recreation of old Africa. - Lovely setting, green lawns and trees, ostriches, peacocks, guinea fowl etc. Friendly staff, delicious meals, afternoon tea, good wine list. Nothing
• Nicholas (8/5): -
• Francesco Giuseppe (9/5): Un posto molto accogliente a breve distanza dall aeroporto, ottimo per chiudere in bellezza la vacanza rimanendo fuori d - L’ambiente è l’accoglienza sono stati perfetti. Camera da letto perfetta Piscina non pulita Bagni leggermente più vecchi e non all altezza della camera da letto
• Ramona (8/5): Schöne Lodge nahe bei Windhoek, allerdings eher für größere Gruppen -
• Ingrid (8/5): -
• Unomasa (7/5): It was relaxing enjoyed the game drive - The scenery was beautiful Their dinner menu is limited. There was no variety of food on the menu
• Frank (8/5): Sehr gute Zwischenübernachtung - Sehr netter Empfang. Weitläufige Außenanlage. Gutes Frühstück und Abendessen. Sehr zuvorkommendes Personal. Bequemere Stühle auf der Terrasse wären schön.
• Myriam (10/5): Afrika pur! - Traumhafte Lage, wunderschöne Game Drives. Pool-Sauberkeit
• Johann (9/5): - Sehr freundliches Personal, alles sehr gepflegt! Da gibt es nichts zu sagen!!
• Elena (6/5): -
• Elena (7/5): Entspannter Zwischenstopp auf dem Weg nach Windhoek - Das Hauptgebäude ist optisch sehr ansprechend gestaltet. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und das Essen war insgesamt lecker. Die große Wiesenfläche mit Lucy dem Strauß ist sehr schön und läd zum verweilen ein. Die Zimmer könnten mal erneuert werden - vor allem wäre mal eine intensivere Reinigung der Klimaanlagen etc. relevant. Es gibt 2 Pools die beide nicht den saubersten Eindruck machen. Zudem gibt es für 2 Pools nur insgesamt 5-6 Sonnenliegen. Zwar liegt der Fokus hier wohl mehr auf GameDrives und Co. aber es sollten wohl mal mindestens ein paar mehr zur Verfügung stehen. Auf Nachfrage wurde uns mitgeteilt, dass die Sonnenliegen wohl alle beschädigt sind und deshalb nur so wenige vorhanden. Da sollte man dann wohl auf mehr Qualität und Quantität setzen. Auch Handtücher waren irgendwie Mangelware.
• Aisling (10/5): -
• Masheane (10/5): It was awesome - So peaceful Nothing
• FB-fb (9/5): Alles stimmt gerne wieder - Hervorager Empfang, Parkplätze auf dem Grundstück Bad in die Jahre gekommen
• Richard (9/5): -
• Verena (8/5): Faires Preis-Leistungsverhältnis für 3 Sterne Lodge - Nicht weit weg von Windhoek fühlt man sich schon etwas im Busch, ruhige Lage und Atmosphäre, schöne Parkanlage. Gut geeignet um Namibia-Urlaub zu starten oder ausklingen zu lassen. Mit einer Ausnahme war das Personal sehr freundlich und aufmerksam. Schade, dass die geplanten Wanderwege noch nicht hergestellt sind. Süssigkeiten zum offerierten Nachmittagskafge eher bescheiden. Lunchbox sehr bescheiden ( Apfel, Orange, Banane, 1 dünnes Toastsandwich mit wenig Inhalt, kein Getränk)
• Belinda (10/5): -
• Haihambo (10/5): Exceptional views - Location I could not find the location on Google Maps and that was frustrating.
• Annes (10/5): - Brilliant service and good location Everything
• Angelika (10/5): We will recommend this stay and we will be back!!! -
• Ginevra (9/5): - Okapuka is an amazing luxury lodge located close to the city, very easy to reach. They offer some game drives where you will see a lot of animals! The food is good and the staff is very friendly. The room is very cozy and beautiful… highly recommend this place for a couple of nights 😊
• Katharina (9/5): Tolles Game Reserve, vorallem perfekt für die erste oder letzte Nacht / Nächte einer Namibia-Reise. - Große Tiervielfalt kurz vor den Toren der Hauptstadt. Sehr weitläufige, gepflegte Anlage für nur ein paar wenige Zimmer und sehr zuvorkommendem Personal. Essen sehr gut und reichhaltig. Die Beleuchtung im Bad hätte etwas heller sei können.
• Lizette (9/5): Very, very nice! - Loved everything! Staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful! It was my son's birthday and they gave him a dessert and a small bottle of sparkling wine which was really nice. Breakfast was amazing! We even bought some souvenirs which was reasonably priced. Proud to be a Namibian with a lodge like Okapuka! I wish they could replace the tiles in the bathroom where they drilled the holes in the wrong place. This is def not bad, but I do miss the original bar. We got married in 2000 at Okapuka and it was the first time we visited again. I know it was, maybe, just time for a revamp.
• Gerda (8/5): We had a much enjoyable stay! -
• Martin (10/5): - Wunderschöne Lodge nahe Windhoek. Direkt bei Autobahn A1. Die Häuser sind sehr groß, gemütlich, und mit allem eingerichtet was man braucht. Das Bad und Dusche sind toll. Restaurant spitze, Service ebenso! Ein Highlight sind die Wellnessangebote. Wir hatten Massage und Gesichtsbehandlung, einfach traumhaft. Kommen gerne wieder.
• Susanne (10/5): - Das gesamte Team war unglaublich nett und zuvorkommend. Das Frühstück, sowie die Speisen bei Lunch und Dinner waren nicht nur perfekt arrangiert, sondern auch geschmacklich herausragend! Die angebotenen Safaris waren einfach klasse! Ein großes Dankeschön! Alles war perfekt!
• Csaba (10/5): - Gyönyörű környezet, kedves személyzet, jó ételek, italok. A reggeli szafari nagyon jó volt, majdnem minden állatot láttunk A google maps mindenkit rossz irányba vezet, a helyiek irányítanak a helyes útra. Jó lenne előre megkapni a megközelítési lehetőséget.
• Carsten (8/5): -
• Lars (10/5): -
• Leopardin (10/5): LUXUS Abenteuer im Busch - Sehr gute Lage . Nähe Windhoek. Gute Stop vor oder nach der Rundreise . Einzigartig. Luxus im Busch
• Melody (10/5): Another lovely accommodation from the Gondwana collection - Another beautiful accommodation from the Gondwana collection. I love that Namibia has so many beautiful places to stay, staff are so friendly, welcoming and theres a bunch of things to do! We booked this one last minute and were very happy to stay there. Once you arrive you can relax as everything you need is there; restaurant, bar, safaris, swimming pool. Our room had a beautiful high ceiling! Recommend the morning safari!
• Jesper (9/5): -
• Hannelore (10/5): Kann ich nur empfehlen -
• Eric (10/5): - Mooie sfeer, prachtige game drive, heerlijke kamers en enthousiast personeel. Een echte aanrader.
• Jan (8/5): Insgesamt zufrieden - Schöne Lage, komfortable Betten, gutes und preiswertes Abendessen. Auch das Frühstück war sehr gut. Maus lief im Speisesaal umher, der Pool, den wir gesehen hatten. Von zweien, hatte er sehr trübes Wasser, das wunderschöne Reetdach der einzelnen Hütten zum übernachten war mit einer künstlichen Verkleidung versehen und dadurch nicht mehr ganz so schick.
• Pedro (9/5): -
• Lutz H. (9/5): -
• Andre (4/5): Below par when compared to other lodges - The location next to the mountains The maintenance of the garden/veldt around the chalets are poor On your little porch half the rooms are looking at parked cars ,not nature ,witch is a passion killer especially at that price! The food was poor dry and cold we were served a Christmas menu for Newyears evening which was old tasteless dry cold spinach turkey or Fillet and mash No atmosphere for a Special New years evening set up Get a new Chef and re invent this Lodge Staff noisy and need more training
• Maria (8/5): -
• Vanessa (8/5): Comfortable and great family hotel half an hour outside of Windhoek. Friendly staff; modern bedrooms - Lovely hotel; comfortable rooms, tastefully decorated. The communal areas are modern and comfortable.
• Wendy (9/5): Manufique! - Decor Slasto outside as arrive at rooms needs attention, otherwise brilliant, people served wholeheartedly and were a pleasure to be around, thank you!!!
• susanne (9/5): -
• Annabelle (10/5): -
• Sonnette (10/5): -
• Michael (9/5): very nice lodge near Windhoek, totally worth a visit, great game drive and relaxing pool area. -
• Patrizia (6/5): Non lo raccomando - La posizione rispetto all’aeroporto Internazionale Hosea Kutako. Io e mio marito non volevamo concludere il viaggio in un albergo in città ci piaceva l’idea di trascorrere l’ultimo giorno in una struttura fuori dal centro. Pulizia e manutenzione devono assolutamente essere riviste perché il prezzo che abbiamo pagato è davvero alto. La camera era sporca, i teli piscina e le lenzuola macchiate inoltre c’era un topo in camera! Il cibo davvero di basso livello.
• Tarek (10/5): Je recommande vivement - Accueil impeccable Endroit magique Safari incroyable Du pur bonheur
• Claudia (8/5): -
• Dawn (10/5): Would highly recommend this place - We had a whole little villa to ourselves. Everything was beautiful. The staff were so welcoming and friendly. Constansia was absolutely lovely. The food was great. We went on a game drive an hour after we arrived and saw rhinos giraffes zebras wildebeest gnu and loads of other animals This place was just great
• Lode (10/5): Our trip could not have ended better! - Everything. Spacious luxurious thatched bungalow, with nice view on to nature. We just loved all the house animals (ostrich, impala, warthogs, even the rare night hare. The food was lovely; the service excellent. We enjoyed it soo much that we decided to stay an extra night and make it the closing too experience of our trip. Nothing. A pity that Google Maps does not yet know the direct motorway exit. Another pity that there was no game meat available (manager really tried).
