Large room, very comfortable, details in advertising would have made me choose a room with a view. Our outlook was not great.

Located in a quiet spot close to the international airport. Wonderful sunset setting.
Basic rooms but very good mattresses.
Very friendly, efficient service and good food.
Would stay there again.

A great stay close to the airport. Our flight did not get in until the evening and they accommodated a late check in.

Outstanding views right off the patio connected by a fully opening door to the room
Restaurant opened to the patio was an asset as well as a problem. There were pesky moths that continued coming around the inside tables. Cigarette smoke from the patio was annoying.
wonderful lightning storm, friendly staff

Great place to stay on your first or last night in Namibia, being only 17 minutes from the airport. Super friendly. The most amazing sunsets from the terrace. Highly recommended!

Nice place for a night before flight
The family room was very nice, clean and comfortable - good value other than them increasing the price on arrival due to a “mistake” with hotels.com . Not too pleased with that being something that was to come out of pocket for me . The airport shuttle was quite overpriced for Namibia standards at 180 N per person for a 15 minute drive, but was reliable and on time - very pleasant driver.
All in all , it is a nice place to stay for a night before an early flight . Otherwise, I don’t see why one would want to stay here given how isolated it is.

The location is beautiful isolated place halfway between Windhoek and the airport. It is right next door to BOBO Camper Rental Depot and close to the B6 highway and yet no noise or impact from either. The swimming pool is great and overlooks the bushveld and mountains beyond. The restaurant and food are excellent. Highly recommend this hotel and campsites. The staff are wonderful and super helpful.

Internet needs reworking
I enjoyed this out-of-the-way lodge. Very native feel in construction & decorations. My only complaint is the internet was sketchy at best.

Good value for money but when checkin in there was no receptionist present and when she arrived she overcharged us as we has already paid half of the stay. She couldnt tell this in the hotel computer system and we now need to wait for the manager the next day to reimburse us.
