This lodge is a gem in the middle of the desert. The views from the room and dining area are priceless.

A unique experience for first timers in Namibia. Best part, in our opinion, was the extensive network of mountain bike trails and e-bike activity option. Amazing way to experience the landscape!

Nice property with a beautiful self hike which you should definitely do in the morning. Rooms are spacious and nice but will need an upgrade in the next couple of years. Main area is very nice, food was very good, staff was polite but a bit stiff. Overal definitely a place i would stay again.

Ich liebe die Lodge. Leider ist nicht allzu viel in der Umgebung und der Weg sehr holperig. Würde aber immer wieder kommen!

Wir können die Lodge wärmstens empfehlen. Wunderschönes Ambiente, toller Service, geschmackvolle Einrichtung, wunderschöne Landschaft! Man ist direkt im Urlaub angekommen. Die Anfahrt sind ca. 50km über Schotterpiste - lohnt sich aber total! Eine Sundowner-Wanderung mit Guide ist im Preis inbegriffen (lohnt sich! Ist sehr interessant!). Wir können die Lodge absolut weiterempfehlen!

Wunderschöne Lage und Aussicht über die weite Landschaft des Erongogebietes. Herrvorragende Küche - bestes Rindersteak. Sehr freundliches Personal. Saubere und geräumige Chalets. Verschiedene Aktivitäten und Wanderungen. Habe mich sehr wohl gefühlt. Jederzeit wieder gerne.

Die Landschaft und die Lage der Lodge in den Hügeln/Felsen ist einzigartig! Man kann einen wunderschönen Sonnenuntergang von der Terrasse/Pool aus genießen. Der Service ist sehr zuvorkommend. Zum Abendessen gibt es ein Menu mit regionalen Zutaten und Wildfleisch. (Föhn auf Nachfrage)

Super Unterkunft mit je zwei Einheiten pro Häuschen. Inbegriffene Mahlzeiten waren hervorragend. Ebenfalls wie der Empfang. Wie in jeder Unterkunft, die wir in Namibia hatten, waren alle Corona-Massnahmen vorbildlich. Die Zimmer sind grosszügig und sehr sauber. Einfach nur empfehlenswert.

What an amazing lodge in the middle of nowhere. The surroundings is just incredible beautiful and you will experience the best sunsets. I could kick myself for only booking one night. Dinner was fantastic too. First we started with a Brioche with three different kinds of butter, followed by an amazing salad, then Beef filet on a delicious mushroom sauce and to finish all this off a nice pudding for dessert. In the morning I had springboks right in front of the veranda. Will definitely go there again!

Lodge besteht aus Bungalows mit jeweils zwei Wohneinheiten. Parkplatz direkt hinter dem eigenen Bubgalow. Zimmer sehr gross und zweckmässig eingerichtet. Kleine Terasse mit Blick in die Landschaft. Frühstück ok und Abendessen (Menü) sehr umfangreich. Leider sind die organisierten Ausflüge im Vergleich zu anderen Lodges gefühlt etwas zu teuer.

The area around the property is cool, really nice rock formations. The property itself from the outside looks unique but other than that it’s skippable. Check in was extremely inconvenient and long (couple of hours), no capability to pay via credit card on checkout. Staff not helpful or knowledgeable on questions about vicinity. Go to Spitzkoppe instead.

We chose Ai Aiba to spend our 10th Anniversary during a two week trip to Namibia and we were not dissappointed. The food was excellent and location is just pure magic. We hiked over the rocks at the back of the lodge and saw San paintings.
