Moon Mountain Lodge

Moon Mountain Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"We had a really nice stay at the Moon Mountain Lodge. We found our room to be spacious and well appointed. The hotel sits on a ridge and the views from our deck were spectacular (especially sunset). The food was delicious and the staff was friendly and helpful. We highly recommend staying here."

The Desert Grace

The Desert Grace

8/10 Good
"Positive: It’s a great place, great staff and it’s great place to stay before visiting Susvelei.they offer many tours and can help you with an itinerary and transportation as a package. Negative: the wifi didn’t work. Not sure if this is an on going issue or just when we were there. The pool water is extremely cold in the winter. I wish they had a way to warm the water or turn it into a Jacuzzi. I wish dinner included more traditional Namibian food options to try instead of mainly western food."

Namib Naukluft Lodge

Namib Naukluft Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed one night and it was amazing! The property had lots to do (perfect for a quiet day after visiting Sessriem) including a hike up the large boulder mountain and a hike around it through the grasslands. There is a well kept pool area to enjoy as well. The staff was exceptional and made us feel very welcome. The highlight was the dinner outside. Dinner is served in a sandy outdoor dining patio with a central open air bbq where food is simmering in cast iron pots. The sun goes down and you eat under the stars. Food was excellent. More authentic African than some other places that tend to be more European centric. We loved our stay and would recommend to anyone enjoying the area."

The Elegant Desert Camp

The Elegant Desert Camp

8/10 Good
"The view is exceptional, absolutely outstanding, very beautiful. The only blemish for me was that the carpets were drenched, wet, and there was no hot water. In their defense I have to say though that there were very peculiar weather days preceding our stay there. Heavy rain in mid winter which is totally outside the norm and unheard of, and very cold days, even when we arrived it was still bitterly cold. One highlight though were the hot water bags that they placed in our beds while we were at dinner."

Namib Desert Lodge

Namib Desert Lodge

8/10 Good
"The pool and gardens were immaculate and my family room was very clean and comfortable. On arrival the key would not open the door lock. It took 40 slow minutes to have it repaired and then he asked for a tip !! I wish there was a power point near the bed so I could have my phone charging while in use. The pool towels all need replacing and the sun lounges were covered in bird poop. The Sunset tour was fantastic. I felt that we were not given enough time on the full day Soussvlei tour to climb Big Daddy and then walk amongst the trees in Deadvlei. Just walking around the trees was rushed because they were in a hurry to leave for their picnic area. The tour guides were excellent."
