Guest Reviews
- Stefan (8/5): - Lodge oberhalb der Epupa Wasserfälle. Schöne Aussicht auf den Fluss.
- Lourene (10/5): Brilliant setting and staff - Everything was great. Staff very helpful and accommodating at all times. Rooms spacious and fans provided.
Our car was washed which was a lovely gesture.
Thanks Simon! Beds very soft. Perhaps an upgrade needed.
- Caroline (9/5): Prachtige plek en zo gastvrij!!!!! Top - De lieve gastheer, Simon, die er alles aan doet om het je naar de zin te maken! Een hartelijk welkom met een grote glimlach. De service is super en je hebt een fantastisch uitzicht over de rivier/ watervallen en de bergen! Heerlijk zwembad en een prachtige zonsondergang. Kwaliteit van het avond eten is ook zeer goed!!!
Prachtige uitvalsbasis voor een bezoek aan de watervallen en een Himba dorp! Hartelijk bedankt voor alles!
- Pia (7/5): - Eine top Lage auf dem Berg mit super Ausblick. Das Personal war sehr freundlich, das Dinner mit mehreren Gängen war sehr gut. Das Datenvolumen für WLAN war sehr begrenzt. Wir hätten nachkaufen müssen - bei dem Zimmerpreis wie auch nicht vorhandene Klimatisierung nicht akzeptabel.
Die Moskitonetze in den Zimmern wiesen einige Löcher (teilweise große) auf.
- Lorenzo (8/5): - Wonderful place, nice viewing.
Good food.
- Elize (9/5): -
- Matteo (5/5): -
- Laurent (9/5): - Posizione ottima, bungalow spazioso e accogliente, staff eccellente. Purtroppo senza aria condizionata. Le finestre essendo impossibili da chiudere, quando il vento caldo del pomeriggio si alza la camera è un po’ soffocante.
Altrimenti tutto piacevolissimo, piscina benvenuta nelle ore calde, vista eccezionale. Mancanza di aria condizionata
- Andrea (8/5): - Das Essen war sehr gut und die Lage außergewöhnlich Die Zimmer waren zu Beginn der Regenzeit sehr heiß, was sich vermutlich schlecht vermeiden lässt.
- Harald (7/5): -
- Stefan (8/5): - Sehr schöne Aussicht. Keine richtige Trennung zwischen Wohn- bzw. Schlafraum zur Toilette und Dusche.
- Rosemarie Erna Gerda (10/5): -
- Karin Wierer (9/5): - Simon und seine Kollegen waren super sie erfüllen alle Wünsche.
Und der Blick vom Pool auf den Kunene und den Palmen einfach Toll
Wir hatten 3 Nächte u. würden jederzeit gerne wieder kommen Nichts
- Dominique (9/5): - Tout est parfait. Super bien situé pour aller à la rivière et voir les chutes. c'est le meilleur lodge du coin avec piscine avec vue. Les hotes sont sympatiques et le lodge est parfait les moustiques
- Zelda (8/5): -
- Elena (10/5): -
- Walter (10/5): Absolute Extraklasse - Die Lodge liegt etwas oberhalb des Kunene-Rivers. Absolut sensationelle Aussicht. Wir sind super freundlich begrüsst und betreut worden. Jeder Wunsch wurde erfüllt, jede Frage beantwortet. Das Essen war sehr lecker und auch die Mengenwünsche unserer mitreisenden Jugend stießen immer auf ein offenes Ohr. Wir haben eine Raftingtour unternommen, die ebenfalls sehr schön, nicht gefährlich, eher beschaulich war.
Ein absolutes Must !!! Entfällt
- ste (10/5): Posto curato nel dettaglio - Camera molto ampia. Ho chiesto un letto matrimoniale e me lo hanno fatto trovare preparato. Ottima cena con insalata di antipasto e piatto principale con carne e verdure e gelato di dolce. Mi hanno anche fatto trovare la jeep pulita esternamente Un po' lunga arrivare a piedi alle cascate. Il materasso migliorabile.
- Erica (8/5): Good Stay in Epupa - Simon was excellent manager, always available and visible, from early mornings till late at night. Very helpful with best road to Ruacana. Petrus the waiter, funny and friendly and just wanted to please! Enjoyed the freshly baked buns every evening. Dinner and breakfast were satisfactory. We really found the staff friendly, eager to please and always ready to give us lots of attention. Nothing negative
- Yolandi (10/5): -
- Coenraad (9/5): Superb - Location Room needs TLC
- Annie (8/5): We enjoy it very much - Location was great and breakfast was very nice! Perhaps wifi in the rooms?
- Charlotte (10/5): Exceptional -
- Charlotte (10/5): An excellent choice! - Location, beautiful landscape, clean pool and great food. Simon and his staff are outstanding. Nothing
- Joost (9/5): Superb -
- Regis (9/5): Superb - Wonderful location at Epupa and professional services that we recommend. Food was very good. Thank you Simon for all.
- Boon (9/5): A good lodge with friendly people and good foods. - Simon was extremely helpful and helped to order a cake for my daughter birthday which we collected at Opuwo. The resort perched on top of a little 'hill' and is located in a quiet location away from the fall but you can still hear the rumbling sound of the fall from the lodge. The foods were good and the sunset was stunningly beautiful. the room did not have aircon and it wont get cool till past mid-night even in winter and it is an area with mozzy.
- Bartosz (10/5): Excellent stay in beautiful place. - Excellent service by Simon and the team. They took care of everything we needed. Beautiful lodge placed on the hill above the river with great view from terrace with pool. Exceptional food. Rooms have European outlets and mosquito nets over the beds. Wide choice of activities for everyone. Air conditioning would be a nice improvement.
- Maria (2/5): Not Worth the visit - The manager Simon was very friendly and really tried his best, 10/10 for him and the chef. Food was good. What a let-down. The lodge is not what we expected. There are no windows, only shadecloth. After a storm everything was covered in dust, inside the buildings. The water for the lodge is pumped directly from the river, impurified, which consist as health risk, the local people uses river for bathing and laundry. Internet very bad, no electricity. the heat was overwhelming and no aircons, just a fan. The bathroom does not have any privacy. It is extremely expensive for what is on offer. Beds uncomfortable and creaky. We were booked for 2 nights but had to leave after just one. There is also no option to cancel for free upon booking. The owner is not there. Will never visit it again.

- Corinna (9/5): Beautiful Lodge at Epupa Falls - Lovely Lodge with spacious rooms and a beautiful view of the Kunene River and the mountains. We were the only guests and the staff was friendly and helpful. The pool was nice and the meals were delicious. A bit more choice of non-alcoholic drinks (e.g. juice) for the kids would have been great.
