It was the best lodging during my whole 3-week trip. The view, the cabin and the staff, everything was perfect. The staff even made a whole cake to celebrate our friend’s birthday!
Amazing views at the lodge, and amazing activities. We went on the rhino tracking activity and it was incredible: we saw a rhino mom and her baby, and we actually followed them on foot for a little while. We also loved the guided walk & sundowner drive, which both had unbelievable views. Even sitting on the patio at the lodge, the views were stunning. Highly recommend this place. Only thing to be aware of is that the internet doesn’t work in the individual rooms, only at the main lodge (and even there it’s spotty). However, with such views you don’t need internet!
The positioning of the lodge is its defining freaturr as the views are spectacular and available from every room and the main building.
The quality of the food was high with a set menu and 'fine dining' feel.
The track up to the lodge is steep and a 4x4 is needed if you don't take the lodge's lift.
The activities offered are a little limited and at the upper end of the prices of other lodges.
The overall value for money is less than some lodges, but if you like views it's worth it.
Clearly overrated accommodation.
Only the view is very good.
Otherwise:
Staff partly overworked and mostly not very helpful and friendly.
Food mediocre.
Room simple, bathroom (shower head, drain) very dirty, cheapest sanitary equipment.
All in all, at best recommended as a stopover if you can't find anything else.
Very nice and beautiful places but the road Up to it was awful and dangerous.

Das Zimmer war sehr klein und leider ohne Klima bei der Hitze nur schwer auszuhalten. Das Personal ist super nett, das Hotel insgesamt ein bisschen in die Jahre gekommen. Mein Eindruck ist, das Management sollte sich besser kümmern
Einzigartige Lage auf dem Grootbergplateau. Einzeln stehende Chalets, alle mit tollem Blick in die Landschaft. Sehr ruhig. Schöne Terrasse am Hauptgebäude. Gesetztes Abendessen statt nervigem Buffet. Sehr gute, abwechslungsreiche Küche. Auffahrt mit 4x4 problemlos.
Personal mit gebremster Herzlichkeit. Neue Matratzen wären schön.
Uitzicht is de grote kracht van deze accommodatie. Prachtige vallei en heerlijk zo wakker worden. Ook fijn om een eigen zitje te hebben. Infinity pool. Diner is goed en mooie zonsondergangen. De rhinotour was super! Wel een lange rit, Desi is een uitstekende chauffeur gelukkig. Vier neushoorns gezien en dan ben je blij met hun ervaring en daardoor een veilig gevoel. Ook de spotters zeer aardig. Prachtig verblijf
Het zicht is spectaculair mooi.
Het onthaal was niet echt vriendelijk en bij de afrekening staat er plots een community fee die disproportioneel is en totaal niet kunnen is. Wij moesten voor onze nacht nog eens bijna 40€ bijbetalen
Ik had volgens mij mijn verblijf volledig betaald
Posizione molto esclusiva in cima ad altopiano. Condizioni della struttura un po’ da rinfrescare, così come la colazione troppo semplice per il prezzo.
Leider wurden wir in unseren Erwartungen arg enttäuscht.
Viele Dinge die in dieser Preisklasse selbstverständlich sind wurden nicht erfüllt.
Die Koffer mussten fast ohne Hilfe über einen unwegsamen Steinweg zu Chalet getragen werden. Das Chalet hatte keinerlei Strom, sodass die Handys im Hauptgebäude aufgeladen werden mussten.
Die Lodge bietet nichts als eine gute (nicht wahnsinnig gute) Aussicht.
Die Auffahrt zur Lodge ist relativ gefährlich und sollte nur von geübten 4x4 Fahrern in Angriff genommen werden.
Wir sind bereits nach einer Nacht vorzeitig wieder abgereist
Grossartige Lodge mit fantastischer Aussicht. Wir waren nur für eine Nacht hier, hätten uns aber einen längeren Aufenthalt gewünscht. Einzig die Tatsache dass der Pool infolge Bauarbeiten nicht in Betrieb war hat den Gesamteindruck etwas getrübt. Nichtsdestotrotz kann ich die Lodge uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen.
Sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Mitarbeiter. Wahnsinnig schöne Aussicht.

mooie plek, matige lodge
Fantastische ligging op een bergrug met uitzicht op het dal. De laatste 800 meter omhoog is een uitdaging en alleen met 4 x 4 te doen. Maar alternatief transport is aanwezig. Het personeel is vriendelijk, de hutjes zijn leuk bedacht maar klein en stoffig door het rieten dak. Er is geen enkel stopcontact in de hut, opladen in het hoofdgebouw. Het pad tussen de hutjes is hobbelig, goed uitkijken in het donker. Het diner was ronduit slecht. Ontbijt (als pakket) ook maar matig. Zwembad lijkt leuk maar is klein en maar 4 bedjes. Prijs/kwaliteit in mijn optiek slecht. Wifi in het hoofdgebouw was matig.
The most amazing view of the valley! Amazing food! Amazing service! Pro or con depending on what type of traveler you are: extremely limited wifi and power plugs, a very steep ascent to get to the property (we had a 4WD but if you don’t they will help you get to the lodge)
This is an excellent place to rest and recuperate between etosha and skeleton coast park. The view is amazing. The staff is friendly and very helpful. This is also an initiative by an npo so you are helping to local community by staying here as well.
The room is beautiful, cozy and just fantastic! No power outlet in the room (because the lodge is next to the cliff!) But you can charge your electronics at the reception.
The check in was a positive experience. Theres transfer up the steep slope to the lodge from the parking lot. They have welcome drink and the staff will walk you through the place. Free breakfast, afternoon tea and dinner come with the charge makes it super worth it!
The staff will also sing and dance to welcome you during dinner. Theres a communal staff tip box at reception so you dont have to tip everyone separately.
We highly recommend this place and will definitely come back if we go to Namibia again!
