Really nice Lodge. We enjoyed our 1 day stay a lot. The restaurant was also pretty good and the sunset drive was amazing. Room for improvement is the pool area: more sunbeds and a little more cozy

Oase 30 km fra Windhoek

Dejligt hotel 30 km fra Windhoek. Rigtig god morgenmad inkluderet, og der er kaffe/te samt kage kl 16. Dertil kan købes frokost og aftensmad efter behov på dagen. To pools på stedet, venligt vidende personale. Der er så mange fugle på området, så mange flotte fjerdragter der pludseligt fanger dit øje, de er sjove at observere, også strudse. Der er mulighed for at booke gamedrives, jeg var på en efter morgenmaden og så mange dyr. Meget dygtig guide der vidste alt om dyrene vi så. Havde et skønt ophold og kommer gerne tilbage.

Empfehlenswert mit kleinen Abstrichen

Check In war freundlich und ausführlich - es gibt ein Welcome Drink. Anlage sehr groß und grün. Verschiedene freilaufende Tiere. Zimmer sehr groß, mit Minibar, Ablagen und Kaffee/ Tee. Man muss mit Ameisen rechnen! Liegen und Handtücher am Pool verfügbar. Restaurant Service ausbaufähig. Zu viel Personal, keine Kommunikation. Dinner sehr lecker. Frühstück kontinental, alles andere, wie Eierspeisen gegen Aufpreis. Check Out Punkt 10 Uhr! Housekeeping wartet schon vor der Tür.
