We stayed one night here. The property is very isolated as many places are in Namibia. The rooms are individual bungalows. Ours was very clean and well maintained. It had air conditioning which we did not really need - it did sound quite noisy. We ate in the hotel for breakfast and evening meal - both were excellent. We were given a map for a walk in the local area. We also used the pool - the area around that was nicely set up.

Lovely lodge in good transit position

Having worried that I should have stayed in Luderitz, when I visited that town, I was seriously glad that we had opted for Klein-Aus Vista. Lodge is very pleasant and our cottage was comfortable and well appointed. Food and service were excellent - I had a fabulous kudu steak.

A lovely setting with spacious, modern and very well equipped rooms. The shop, bar and swimming pool were ideal. Access to the main road was easy allowing day trips to Luderitz, Kolmanskop and the Desert Horse viewing area. Our only concern was birds in breakfast servery which would be easily remedied by a light screen over the entrance. Overall would recommend highly.

I had camped at the Desert Horse Inn campground on a visit to Namibia in 2005. It was an enjoyable experience. Passing through again in 2024, I was curious to see what the villas were like. Ours was clean, reasonably spacious and comfortable. Dinner was in the main building. It was a cold night and the restaurant was full of Germans. My wife remarked it reminded her more of an evening in the Bavarian Alps than Namibia. Some dollar saving advice: I am a vegetarian, so the buffet, which is the main, rather meaty, offering, didn't suit me. Instead, I ordered from the excellent vegetarian menu. The meals on that menu were half the price of paying for the buffet, but quite substantial. Klein Aus Vista is a nice place and worth a night if passing through.

The Reception, Restaurant and Bar were very attractive and in an elevated position with views over the surrounding countryside and mountains. The pool was in a sheltered position at ground level, with lots of sunbeds and seats in the shade. Accomodation was in individual chalets set around the hotel with pleasant shrubs that survive in these dry areas. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Meals were self service and not quite as good as freshly made food but appropriate for a large hotel

The room was basic but clean. The hotel is in a good area just outside of a small town. The restaurant and bar area were lovely and all the meals we had were delicious.

A delightful, cosy and friendly place to stay.

Exceeded our expectations - expected the rooms to be fairly basic but they were very well maintained, extremely clean and comfortable. The restaurant was excellent - it was cosy and friendly and served some of the best food we had in all Namibia! The staff were very friendly and helpful and made good suggestions for activities and advice on travel to our next destination..

Great property, no AC=potentially hot rooms

Beautiful setting, great food and easy access to view horses in the area. The only gripe would be that the room was quite hot due to no AC in the rooms. Overall the property was worth the money and I would stay again
