Guest Reviews

• Andrea (10/5): - Tolle lodge am eingang des etosha.. essen, Personal, abendunterhaltung einfach super
• Jerome (10/5): - Everything was amazing! Highly recommend the experience. Simply the best!!
• Sheri (10/5): - If you're looking for the African experience, this is it! From game drives during the day to a local band in the evening, we really felt the Namibian vibe. Note that this is not a 5 star, westernized resort. This is dining under the stars. No WiFi or TV in the room so you can unplug or go to the reception area for urgent messages.
• Timothy (10/5): - Excellent
• Julia (10/5): - Aufenthalt war für uns einfach super!
• min (8/5): Great staff - We experienced both the camp (one night) and the lodge (two nights). Compared to its newer, quieter and the more expensive neighbor, the camp was more lively and fun. We liked the staff at the camp better. The good looking front desk girl and the young maintenance guy helped us big time by making us a special power outlet adapter without which I would not be able to use our camera and phones. A big thank you!
• Marina (8/5): - It's only 10km from Etosha NP and breakfast is served from 6:00.
• Karin (10/5): - Top gerne wieder
• Thierry (8/5): Très bien situé - Les bungalows sont très propres, suffisamment éloignés les uns des autres pour garantir une atmosphère très calme. Le repas du soir et le petit déjeuner sont servis sous forme de buffets. Le camp est très bien situé, à 10 km de la porte Anderson, au sud du parc Etosha. Le camp est facile d'accès, très bien indiqué.
• Isabelle (10/5): - Ze zorgen voor wat ambiance s avonds Mooie kamers Dichtbij het etosha park
• Tyler (10/5): - Beautiful property and the friendly staff really made it what it was. Loved the nightly music around the fire and the breakfast was delicious!
• Penelope (4/5): Bad service for past clients - Everything was as expected and have no complains about the property except for their post service.I stayed at the property on the 6th of Jan and checked out on the 7th of Jan. Made my booking through Hotels.com who charged my credit card. Upon check out,etosha asked me to make payment as they had not received monies from Hotels.com. I then paid them directly to avoid back and forth,also as i had to leave for my next trip. To this day (10th Feb), I'm struggling to get the refund for the double charge as Etosha does not respond to Hotels.com to verify that i paid them directly.I also sent them an email myself and have never received any acknowledgement of receipt. They have ruined a perfect stay in exchange for poor review which will drag their reputation as a proper establishment.
• Jörg (4/5): - Im Großen und Ganzen ist das Camp ok, aber die Kommunikation und Abrechnung ist mangelhaft bis unverschämt. Ich hatte für eine Person gebucht, da damals nicht sicher war, dass meine Partnerin mitreisen kann. Als klar war, dass sie mitkommen kann, habe ich dem Camp geschrieben, dass wir zu zweit kommen. Bei einem reservierten Doppelzimmer sollte das kein Problem sein. Als wir abends ankamen wusste niemand etwas davon und wir mussten für die zweite Person soviel wie für die ersten nachbezahlen. In der dünn besiedelten Region ohne Alternative war das ziemlich unverschämt.
• Frik (10/5): - A very nice place to stay
• Verified traveler (8/5): Good option near Etosha Anderson Gate - Well located for Etosha NP. Reasonably priced and nice accommodation. Local band performance for dinner. Recommended.
• Yuri (10/5): - Struttura molto bella, ben curata ed organizzata. Il personale molto gentile e competente. Abbiamo prenotato una giornata al parco Etosha e la nostra guida Jackson è stata fantastica!
• Sophie (10/5): - Très belle ambiance musicale en soiree
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Super experience, facilities were great, staff is very nice and amazing value with breakfast included. 5 minute drive to park gate.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Uitstekende ligging. Ruime lodges. Goede wegeninfrastructuur op site wat belangrijk is tijdens regenseizoen. S avonds giraffen voor de lodge gehad. Diner is aan de dure kant als je met andere plaatsen in Namibië vergelijkt. Een koelkast in de lodge was een leuke extra geweest.
• Alexandra (10/5): - Tolle Atmosphäre, lecker Essen und schöne Live Musik!
• Britta (10/5): - Tolle Unterkunft direkt vorm Etosha. Super schön gestaltet und sehr nettes Personal. Camping2Go war eine gute Abwechslung zum Dachzelt. Das Frühstück reichhaltig und sehr lecker.
• Jack (10/5): Perfect - Wij hadden geboekt meT gratis ontbijt, echter bij de lodge was dit niet bekend. Dit was vervelend, echter de manager eea uit weten te leggen en overtuigd. Voor de rest alles perfect.
• ROBERTO (8/5): Buone lodge - A soli 9 km da Anderson Gate
• Ellis (10/5): Etosha escape - The service was great place is exceptionally clean and was great value for money. Would definitely stay there again. Great excursion organised got see a pride of lions, several giraffes, brief glimpse of rhino, elephant, zebras and the various springboks.
• Christine (8/5): - Tolles Buffet, tolle Lage, das Personal etwas trantütig.
• pascale (8/5): parfait - très bonne option à la sortie (ou à l'entrée) de Etosha, hébergement moins onéreux que dans le parc. Les petites maisons individuelles s'étagent sur la colline offrant une jolie vue, très calmes. Chambres simples mais confortables, salles de bain rigolotes. Très bon buffet le soir, à environ 20 € Excellent buffet du petit déjeuner, très varié.
• William (6/5): Rude reception staff - The registration staff people were rude. We were told that we could only have the buffet dinner, no other choices. Another guest was given a dinner option for him grandson. We ate elsewhere. The air conditioning was not able to adequately cool our safari tent. This was probably to be expected, given the extreme temps outside.
• John (2/5): - The place was cleen, everything was marvellous, expect they wanted to charge us twice because they do not know how to get the money from Expedia 2hich I paid in advance
• DAEWOON (6/5): 에토샤 주변 아쉬운 숙소 - 데스크 직원들은 바빠서 그런지 매우 사무적인 대응, 4인 가족용 숙소는 매우 비좁은 공간에 2층 침대를 설치해서 캐리어를 펼치기 힘든 공간이었습니다. 숙소 지붕이 함석 철판으로 지어져 밤까지 열기가 식지 않고 이층침대에 누워서 잠을 자고 있으면 동물이 지붕을 걸어다녀 지붕을 두드리며 잠을 자야했습니다. 가족여행용 숙소로는 합리적이지 않다고 판단합니다.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Great spot. Close to entry of Etosha park, so more time in park then on the road towards park. Wifi only in restaurant area. forget 3g/gprs. Not available.
• Jose (8/5): Urlaub in Namibia - Schöne Anlage, die Bungalows weit genug von einande entfernt. Einen Kühlschrank im Zimmer haben wir vermisst.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Guter Ausgangspunkt um den Etosha Nationalpark zu besuchen. Gute Angebote für geführte Touren mit tollen Guides.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Comfortable, however a bit dated. Dining situation is wide open and lets birds fly in and out and eat from the buffet. Rooms are basic.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Die Unterkunft war sehr schön und das Zimmer sauber. Leider war das Personal sehr unfähig, so wurden Bestellung nicht gebracht oder gar nicht erst aufgenommen, obwohl man bereits seit mehr als 30 Minuten beim Essen gewartet hat. Teilweise haben wir gefrühstückt ohne Kaffee und Tee zu bekommen, weil das Service Personal zwar anwesend war, jedoch auf Rufe etc. nicht reagierte. Beim Check in haben wir unsere Expedia Buchungsbestätigung abgegeben, welche einbehalten wurde. Da diese bei der Abreise nicht mehr auffindbar war, wollten sie uns die Beträge erneut in Rechnung stellen, schließlich könnten sie nicht sehen, dass wir bereits bezahlt hatten. Alles in allem eine sehr schöne, moderne und saubere Lodge-Anlage, jedoch mit sehr viel Verbesserungspotenzial bei den Service Mitarbeitern.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - We hadden op een kamer gerekend maar bleek een grote Lodge te zijn. Het avondeten met live muziek was geweldig Uitstekend locatie dicht bij Etosha
• Lisa (8/5): - Das Buffet war sehr umfangreich morgens und abends und sehr lecker. Abends war bei Livemusik eine tolle Stimmung :) Die Lodge war sauber und - insbesondere das Bad - schön. Die Nähe zum Etosha war für uns ausschlaggebend für die Buchung und hat sich bewährt.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Wir zwei Nächte hier und haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Sowohl das Frühstück als auch Buffet Abendessen waren lecker und haben sicherlich für jeden etwas geboten. Unser Chalet war sauber und geräumig und hat unsere Erwartungen übertroffen. Besonders vergnüglich fanden wir die tolle Musik der mehrköpfigen Combo, die mit afrikanischem aber auch internationalem Songs und Tanzeinlagen die Gäste aufs vortreffliche unterhielten. Das Team der Anlage war freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wir haben nichts vermisst und werden sicher gerne wiederkommen.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Das Restaurant, das in einem Innenhof liegt, bietet eine sehr gemütliche Atmosphäre. Sowohl das Buffet am Abend und nächsten Morgen war sehr reichhaltig, liebevoll angerichtet und sehr schmackhaft. Wir hatten sehr kurzfristig für 2 Personen nur noch ein Familienzimmer bekommen, welches uns sehr gut gefallen hat. Es war süß eingerichtet, Bettzeug und Handtücher rochen schön frisch, alles war sehr sauber und komfortabel. Würden es daher nicht nur aufgrund der Nähe zum Etosha Gate Okaukuejo weiterempfehlen.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Enjoyed casual friendly atmosphere and good dinners. Disliked poor maintenance - sewage line and plumbing broken and leaking at chalet, very poor WiFi
• Verified traveler (10/5): - A real gem. Great meals and entertainment. Close to Etonian Pan west gate.
• Gordon (10/5): - Great location
• Verified traveler (10/5): Great location - We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The cabins were adorable and well designed. The staff were friendly and helpful. We missed breakfast as we were so tired from a long drive the day before that we slept in.
• Marlene (8/5): Good choice close to Etosha National Park - Nice room with good facilities close to Etosha National Park....small pool and free breakfast buffet
• Scott (8/5): Great Etosha base camp! - Super staff and food. Fun atmosphere. Cool little cabins. Great base for Etosha park - before day begins and after, too.
• Natalie (10/5): recommend it! - This was a great place to stay overnight before passing through to Etosha. The staff was very friendly, breakfast was simple but good, the room was very clean & pretty much bug free! Really close to the NP!
• PATRICIA (10/5): - Our family of 5 stayed here one night and loved it. The camp is close enough to Anderssen Gate that we spent an afternoon in the park and returned to spend the night before continuing our journey through Etosha the following day. The cabins are as clean as camp cabins can be, spacious, and perfectly spaced apart for privacy and convenience. We all loved the elephant showers!! Restaurant and bar are good. Would definitely go back (if we can ever afford another trip to Africa!!)
• Jane (8/5): Funky place - The place was great with the house we were in recently painted. The live music with dinner added to the warm atmosphere. Very good food especially in the evening. It was great to be in a different kind of place from a traditional lodge.
• Nancy (8/5): secluded bungalow - The camp have separated their bungalows in groups of about 5 and have spaced them so that you feel very secluded. VERY poor and slow wifi in the bar area only. The room was very basic, but adequate. Expected a bit more for the price we were paying.
• David (6/5): Unfriendly front counter staff. - I booked a family room and had not specified 3 people. They got very upset at me and charged me a much higher rate for the extra person than I paid on line for 2 people. The shower was cold and had very little pressure. Only buffet option for food which is twice the price as dinner in the national park. Property was nice and relaxing. Feels like the hotel takes advantage of travelers wherever they can. Very expensive compared to national park that had a night time water hole and larger swimming pools.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Good Option just outside the park - The hotel has good facilities but was a little pricey compared to other places we stayed in Namibia. This was probably due to the time of year and location so close to Etosha.
• Patrick (8/5): Great option south of the park - This camp is directly off the main road, just south (and outside) the park. It consists of a central cluster of buildings that include dining areas, reception shop, bar, pool p and so on. Scattered about the surrounding hill are detached bungalow style cottages. Most if not all the cottages have a car parking area so one may drive to and from the main area if walking does not suit. A campground is laid out in a large level and grassy plain. A buffet dinner is served in the evening. The food during my stay was excellent. I would not hesitate to stay here again.
