Great wildlife, beautiful rooms and a willingness to facilitate vegan food which isn’t always easy in Namibia

Our visit got of to a very poor start when the lodge were only expecting us for one night's bed and breakfast, but we had paid Expedia for two night's half-board. The reception staff eventually accepted our voucher for two nights, but the reception manager told us we would have to pay for dinner. It was only after dinner on our second night, when we spoke to Schalk Mueller, the lodge manager, that everything was resolved to our satisfaction. This somewhat spoiled our stay, however it would not put me off returning.

A lovely property with nice facilities and game drive options, with the added bonus of free tea and cake in the afternoon to provide a welcoming feel. The overall impression of the staff was that they're friendly, but with limitations. We didn't require dinner, but wanted an evening drink at the bar. This caused considerable consternation and discussion between 3 members of staff before they would serve us. Similarly our initial enquiry of whether we could check in an hour early, this was met with a come back at check in time (14.00) response, without checking whether the room was ready, or would be ready early. Understandable but very blunt.

Great find!!
A great location and worth spending 2 nights en route to Etosha. Nearby to Africat for a day visit. Very affordable. Game drive is worth doing too.

Elegant lodge in beautiful surroundings
The room was comfortable and tastefully furnished, with a huge bathroom. Our game drive in the morning provided us with great sightings of rhinos, warthogs, giraffes, many antelopes, camels and even meerkats. The

Bellissimo lodge e sopratutto ottima cucina, la migliore che abbiamo provato in Namibia! La camera era in verità una casetta, quindi molto spaziosa. Il personale é cortese anche se non molto cordiale.

Idyllischer, ruhiger Ort zum Verweilen
Wir waren mit unseren zwei Kindern nun bereits zum zweiten Mal in der Otjiwa Lodge und waren wieder genauso begeistert, wie schon beim ersten Mal. Wir erhielten einen wunderschönen, top eingerichteten Familienbungalow, mit Ausblick direkt auf ein Wasserloch. Der Gamedrive war sehr informativ, und unser Guide gab sich alle Mühe, uns Nashörner zu zeigen. Was ihm dann auch gelang. Wir hatten so lange Zeit, um sie zu beobachten, das war toll! Das Abendessen war dann ein Highlight. Ein wunderschön dekorierter Tisch(wie sonst nirgends), ein superfeines Essen und eine äussert nette Bedienung erwartete uns. Diese Lodge ist für uns eine der schönsten Aufenthalte in Namibia. Wir kommen das nächste Mal bestimmt wieder; und dann für zwei Nächte.

In die Jahre gekommen
Ein idyllisch gelegenes Areal. Besuch war außerhalb der Saison, daher waren überall Instandsetzungsarbeiten zu beobachten.Die Chalets sind funktional eingerichtet. Es ist eigentlich alles vorhanden was man benötigt. Nur beim Besteck hapert es etwas. Ich denke auf Nachfrage Hatte man die fehlenden Teile bestimmt erhalten. Unser Aufenthalt war nur kurz, daher hatte es sich nicht gelohnt. Das Bad ist Renovierungsbedürftig, so auch einige ander Bereiche auch. Wie zuvor beschrieben, die Leute waren gerade dabei alles ordentlich wieder herzurichten. Der Service ist hervorragend, so auch das angebotene Essen. Auch die Gamedrives sind ordentlich, die Ranger bemühen sich sehr es allen recht zu machen. Alles in allem eine schöne und empfehlenswerte Anlage.

Schöne Lodge mit zwei Wasserlöchern
Uns war gar nicht bewusst, dass wir ein Chalet mit 2 Schlafzimmern und 4 Betten und Küche online gebucht hatten. Dafür war der Preis sehr fair. Der Zustand der Chalets zeigt Abnutzungsspuren, aber alles war sauber. Betten sehr gut. Service bei den Mahlzeiten war so Lala, deshalb dafür nur 4 Punkte. essen war gut.
