The hotel is in a beautiful location, on the way to the airport. The view from the terrace, where you can have breakfast, is magnificent! The rooms are simple, but offer views of the valley or mountains. The rooms are poorly cleaned; they are very dusty and dirty.

If you want to start your Namibia holiday straight after landing, this is a good place to start. Only 8 mins drive to Windhoek, it has stunning views from almost anywhere on the property, friendly staff, good food (dinner and breakfast). Visits from Cody the cat was a bonus.

This is a unique place to stay and enjoy the true Namibian experience. The servers are quite attentive and friendly. The breakfast buffet is satisfying. Having an evening meal outside and looking the lights of Windhoek is a must thing.

Very nice location with great views: either towards the hills or towards the city. Great and friendly service with a smile. Rooms are well done with space for luggage. A small personal patio (or stoep as they call it) with comfortable chairs when used with the cushions from the inside chairs.

The view from this property, the nice rooms with the patios to enjoy the view and peace, the amazing food and wonderful staff as well as beautiful overall facility and pool area are some of the main factors I liked this hotel so much. The homemade bread is a total winner and the dinner was absolutely deliciously the service impeccable and set the tone for our trip. Recommend staying here and will be staying here again on my next visit.

A great place to stay near Windhoek

A perfect place to stay after a long overnight flight. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Rooms were comfortable and quiet. Restaurant meals were lovely - tasty and very well cooked. We had an excellent night's sleep and were sorry that our plans meant that we could not stay longer.

A nice lodge, with a beautiful view

A nice lodge, composed of cottages in the middle of nature, with two beautiful swimming pools and also a restaurant open air. We recommend it, it's close to Windhoek and also practical if you arrive or depart from Hosea Kutako Airport

Great location for the airport. About 20 mins by taxi/shuttle. Great views. Evening meal was excellent but choice limited to a set menu of one! Room was very comfortable. Good views from patio and restaurant. I’d definitely recommend
