Very nice and beautiful places but the road Up to it was awful and dangerous.

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.

All about the view

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.
Joanna, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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!
Marina, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

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.

Posizione molto esclusiva in cima ad altopiano. Condizioni della struttura un po’ da rinfrescare, così come la colazione troppo semplice per il prezzo.

4/10 Fair

Wichtige Details werde im Beschrieb nicht erwähnt

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.

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.

Views for days

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)

Un de nos meilleurs séjours en Namibie. La vue est magnifique, le personnel est très aimable. C’est simplement parfait.

Superb hotel!

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!

Very unique hotel

Amazing hotel with fantastic view and nice service! It’s very remote but if you’re not having a problem with the drive it’s worth the effort!!
Daniel, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Personnel très accueillant, bon restaurant, possibilité de booker des excursions sur place. Si vous souhaitez faire les activités au départ du matin (par exemple safari éléphants) il faut au minimum rester 2 nuits car elles durent une journée. N’ayant pris qu’une nuit nous avons pu faire uniquement une balade 4x4 sur le plateau à 17h pour le coucher de soleil. La vue depuis les chambres du lodge est à couper le souffle! Wifi très bonne mais uniquement disponible dans le restaurant et terrasse.

Notre séjour de 2 jours a été extraordinaire,le lodge est magnifique avec un paysage digne des plus beaux sites au monde.le personnel est d.une sympathie d*un dévouement et d*une gentillesse incroyable. Nous avons fait le « tracking éléphant du désert » un souvenir inoubliable et tellement enrichissant grâce à nos guides. Quel beau moment.

Bijzonder mooie ligging. Mooie bungalows waar we de schoonheid pas smorgens konden ontdekken door stroompanne. Spijtig was er geen electriciteit... generator defect In donker je weg vonden in een kamer die je niet kent, is heel moeilijk en geen zaklampen beschikbaar. Jammer
