We spent two nights at the lodge while exploring north/east of Etosha national park and we absolutely loved it. It’s a hidden gem with its own private entrance gate and view of the national park. Staff and service is fantastic as well.

Wonderful Lodge with amazing staff. Directly next to Nehale entry. We loved our stay here!! You can tell, that everything is brand new

The cottages are beautifully located on the plains next to Etosha park with an unobstructed view towards the horizon for perfect sunsets. Staff was very friendly and the food was great! Only thing to keep in mind is that from King Nehale Gate it is a 40min drive through the park to the waterholes close to Namutoni. But also the area around King Nehale gate is great for spotting animals!

King Nahele

The room with private pool was absolutely beautiful! Food was good. Waterhole excursion was good, just the road needs some work and it’s quite a distance away. We wish we had not booked game drives prior as we ended up doing our own drive into the park, saw lots, big herds of elephant are great to see.

An enjoyable stay (2 nights)

Lovely room and very large bed. Really enjoyed the view of “absolutely nothing but landscape for as far as you could see” from the bed (great substitute TV) Lovely to look at but not very practical taps (waterstill running for some time after tap is closed) in the bathroom, especially as they preach about saving waterthere (and very where else). Welcome drinks in the fridge / night cap Port in the room. Private plunge pool. Very varied buffet for dinner and for breakfast (for a very few guests). Lots of attention to detail. A most enjoyable stay.

The experience of having an unhindered view of the grassland while lying in the bed is beyond words. This accommodation provides a great experience in feeling remote, but in a safe, convenient, and luxurious environment. The place is away from the main tourist crowd and is worth the drive further north to the King Nehale Gate. Representation of the Aawambo people and culture is beautifully detailed through the decor, hospitality, and food options. I wish I could have the interior designer work on my house! Our family enjoyed the stay and wished we could stay longer. Although we were on a family trip, the location would be ideal for a romantic getaway. The afternoon safari guide was well done. The hot water does run out, so time showers according. Laundry service is stellar, the room was immaculately clean, the food is top-notch, and the staff provide an authentic and welcoming environment. I greatly recommend this lodging.

Our favourite hotel in Namibia!

By far the best room I stayed in in Namibia. Large, bright and luxurious, with lots of welcome extras, and the plunge pool so refreshing at the end of the day. The food was very good and the staff were tripping over themselves to offer us help. There were lots of animals at nearby watering holes. It’s relatively new and my advice would be to get there before the secret is out!

Direkt an der Einfahrt zum Etosha Nationalpark. Sehr schöne Lodge, der kleine private Pool auf der Terasse mit Blick in die Savanne einfach der Hammer. Die Häuser groß, mit viel Platz für Gepäck. Das Essen sehr gut mit viel Auswahl beim Dinner sowie beim Frühstück.

Liegt etwas sehr abseits, man muss schon etwa 40 min in den Park reinfahren damit es richtig losgeht. aber das 1 Std. Fahet entfernte private Wasserloch ist mega. Muss man unbwdingt machen.
