More pretense than reality

The rooms were clean, albeit bare. It all seemed a bit bleak and we didn't really feel comfortable. However, even if it is nice for decoration, they have streams of water everywhere, which means there are a lot of mosquitoes there. Overall, it was very cold in the main house at dinner and breakfast, so the food got cold quickly. The food itself was ok but nothing special. The staff made an effort. What we didn't like was that the prices of the activities were different to the prices quoted afterwards.

It falls below expectation in terms of the experience you would expect from the place. 1. Is a nice place but not wow. 2. Staff seem under paid and even though friendly the interactions could get a bit uncomfortable. 2. There is a set menu for dinner but they don't know how to cater for vegetarians even if you inform them in advance and get confirmation that they will accommodate. We stayed 2 night with 2 disappointing dinner experience. We ended up eating a larger side dish of the main me

Very disappointed after this stay - staff let mosquitoes in our room and didn’t have a mosquito net so me and my partner were bitten numerous times after never being bitten in our two week trip to Namibia. We were served pork that was burnt on the outside and extremely undercooked on the inside resulting in food poisoning the following day. After raising our concerns with staff, no effort was made to amend this. Other accommodation in Namibia requested we have short showers to conserve water while Emanya has unnecessarily green lawns due to inappropriate sprinkler usage. Proximity to Etosha is convenient though

Leider kann ich Emanya keine volle Punktzahl geben, da sie mit Luxus wirbt. Dieser ist leider an sehr vielen Stellen nicht erkennbar. Es herrscht an einigen Stellen Renovierungsstau. Hier und da klappert etwas, die Pool Liegen erscheinen auf den ersten Blick gut. Aber die Räder fallen ab, wenn die Liege leicht bewegt wird. Die Sonnenschirme sind ebenfalls in einem schlechten Zustand. Die Zimmer sind hübsch. Wir hatten zwei Zimmer und in einem roch es fürchterlich chemisch. Immer wenn der Zimmerservice da war, wurde wieder neu gesprüht. Vermutlich ein Mittel gegen Schädlinge. Gesund kann das nicht sein!! Die Besitzer der Lodge sitzen ebenfalls bei den Mahlzeiten dabei, mischen sich jedoch nicht interessiert unter die Urlauber, sondern setzen sich abseits. Man fühlt sich beobachtet. Das Abendessen ist fein und das Frühstück bietet soweit alles. Leider schmecken Kaffee und Tee sehr salzig. Die Nähe zum Etosha Park ist toll sowie das vorwiegende Personal. Wir würden diese Unterkunft nicht wieder buchen, da das Konzept nicht stimmig ist

Empfang sehr nett, tolle luxuriöse Anlage, schöne Zimmer, feine Betten, gutes Essen, nettes und hilfsbereites Personal, super Game Drive mit Levis, der die Planen zur Hinfahrt anbrachte, damit uns nicht kalt wird. Nicht so gut war, dass mir das Zimmer mit Moskitonetz schriftlich zugesagt wurde, war dann aber schon belegt ( gibt nur 1). Wurde aber am nächsten Tag übersiedelt und Personal war sehr bemüht. Mein Wunsch bezüglich vegetarischem Essen wurde scheinbar nicht weitergeleitet. Es wurde mit Nudeln und Beilagen improvisiert, was für mich leicht ausreicht. Soll auch keine schlechte Kritik sein, sondern Verbesserungsvorschlag. Ich würde sofort wieder herkommen, war wunderschön

Eine unsere schönsten Unterkünfte in Namibia

Wunderschöne, moderne und sehr saubere Unterkunft. Schöner, großer Pool, gepflegter Garten, sehr gutes Frühstück. Wir haben es sehr genossen - auch die angebotene kostenlose Fußmassage. Frühstück war sehr gut, das 5-Gang-Abendessen wurde serviert, das fanden wir auch schön und es war auch gut. Nachmittags gab’s zusätzlich Kaffee und Kuchen. Da blieben keine Wünsche offen. Wir empfehlen einen Aufenthalt von mindestens 2 Nächten.

Fijne ontvangst met een koffie en een stukje cake. Heel mooie zithoek en uitzicht op het terras aan een waterpoel. Het ontbijt en avondmaal waren zeker en vast inorde en erg verzorgd. Onze kamer was ook inorde. ‘S avonds kwamen ze de kaarsjes aansteken terwijl we aten. Heel gezellig bij het terugkomen! We deden 1 game drive via hen en waren echt heel tevreden ☺️👌
