Great Western style lodge near Aus, perfect for day trips to Lüderitz and Kolmanskop, as well as a stopover to Fish River or Kalahari regions. Very clean, friendly and helpful staff, nice rooms. Food is excellent.

Lovely lodge in good transit position

Having worried that I should have stayed in Luderitz, when I visited that town, I was seriously glad that we had opted for Klein-Aus Vista. Lodge is very pleasant and our cottage was comfortable and well appointed. Food and service were excellent - I had a fabulous kudu steak.

A lovely setting with spacious, modern and very well equipped rooms. The shop, bar and swimming pool were ideal. Access to the main road was easy allowing day trips to Luderitz, Kolmanskop and the Desert Horse viewing area. Our only concern was birds in breakfast servery which would be easily remedied by a light screen over the entrance. Overall would recommend highly.

The Reception, Restaurant and Bar were very attractive and in an elevated position with views over the surrounding countryside and mountains. The pool was in a sheltered position at ground level, with lots of sunbeds and seats in the shade. Accomodation was in individual chalets set around the hotel with pleasant shrubs that survive in these dry areas. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Meals were self service and not quite as good as freshly made food but appropriate for a large hotel

We stayed one night here. The property is very isolated as many places are in Namibia. The rooms are individual bungalows. Ours was very clean and well maintained. It had air conditioning which we did not really need - it did sound quite noisy. We ate in the hotel for breakfast and evening meal - both were excellent. We were given a map for a walk in the local area. We also used the pool - the area around that was nicely set up.

I had camped at the Desert Horse Inn campground on a visit to Namibia in 2005. It was an enjoyable experience. Passing through again in 2024, I was curious to see what the villas were like. Ours was clean, reasonably spacious and comfortable. Dinner was in the main building. It was a cold night and the restaurant was full of Germans. My wife remarked it reminded her more of an evening in the Bavarian Alps than Namibia. Some dollar saving advice: I am a vegetarian, so the buffet, which is the main, rather meaty, offering, didn't suit me. Instead, I ordered from the excellent vegetarian menu. The meals on that menu were half the price of paying for the buffet, but quite substantial. Klein Aus Vista is a nice place and worth a night if passing through.

We only stayed one night at the end of a stay at Eagle’s Nest due to limited availability at the Nest chalets. We were pleasantly surprised by how comfortable and quiet the accommodation was.

We had a room for 4 people with one bunk bed. The room was clean and comfortable. The pool area is really nice to sit and enjoy the last sunlight of the day. The main area for eating is on the second floor and has a nice vibe. The only thing was that warm water was only available during the afternoon since it was warmed by the sun and then it was only lukewarm.

Sehr schöne Lodge, tolle Außenanlage, schöne, ruhige Doppelhäuschen, alles sehr sauber. Das Restaurant im Haupthaus ist in der 1. Etage und hat somit eine schöne Aussicht. Das Essen ist super, das Personal sehr freundlich! Der Inhaber ist ein passionierter Mountainbiker, vermietet auch MTBs und es gibt tolle Trails rund um die Lodge (schon anspruchsvoll) Unbedingte Empfehlung: der Sunset Drive mit Johann. Es gibt zahlreiche Infos zu der Farm und der Gegend, einen leckeren Sundowner bei spektakulärem Himmel und eine Begegnung mit Wildpferden. Wir haben uns sehr, sehr wohlgefühlt in Kleinaus Vista!!

Schöne Lodge, alles war super. Ich fand den eigenen Garten/Gemüseanbau super, und dass man hier offensichtlich ein bisschen auf Wasser- und Energieverbrauch achtet. Die Küche ist spitze, das Essen war fantastisch! Mein Gericht (Ente) war wirklich etwas ganz besonderes und mit all den liebevoll zusammengestellten Zutaten eine wahre Geschmacksexplosion :-)
