A beautiful and unique property where the chalets are private by being far away from each other. With no lights around, the starts at night were fantastic. The staff were amazing and the food at their restaurant was one of the best I had in Namibia. We wish we stayed for two nights instead of just one. Highly recommend.

Really loved the decorations around the main area, the free unlimited wifi, and the free breakfast. However, there was no power in the chalets, the office did not offer and guided tours of the area (and wouldn't help us find a tour in the area). Additionally, we were charged twice for a tire fix that was not actually fixed. Honestly we felt a little uneasy dealing with the staff and like they were pressuring to eat dinner, asking us to decide very early in advance.

Lovely views from our room of the escarpment and river bed - lots of beautiful birdsong and butterflies to watch among the sunrise and sunsets. Rooms are rustic but a good size. Gorgeous food prepared by the lodge and loved the setting including lovely pool and iron art!

Great place to stay just an hour from Sossusvlei. Great list of activities including local hiking. The owner jump started my Bakkie when the battery failed. How's that for service? Friendly staff and a friendly pet springbok! Liked the sculptutres too.

Highly recommended

We had the most wonderful 3 night stay. A very warm welcome from Nicky and her lovely staff. Fabulous accommodation, clean and super comfy. Lots of great hikes and the stars each night were amazing. The food was incredibly good with a very high standard. We loved the resident deer, the many birds and the tranquility.
