It’s great location, walkable to everything Swakopmund has to offer. Staff was fantastic and so helpful is booking activities for us as well giving recommendations.

Place conveniently situated and safe. Well equipped. Aircon did not work though. Couldn’t get it fixed in our 2 days of stay, which was a bit of an inconvenience. Housekeeping not quite up to standard. Alternative solutions could’ve been offered as a nice hospitality gesture. ##### Massador Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Rosa 24 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication It was a lovely place to stay! ##### Rosa Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### shaun 9 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was very modern and accessible.

Very pleasant stay. ##### Johan Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 9 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Nice stay at Desert Sands I booked the one bedroom apartment, as I thought the studio might be small. Unlikely, as my apartment was massive and I slept on the mezzanine level. The weather wasn't great when I was there, and the mezzanine was much warmer than downstairs regardless of whether the heating was on or not. Apartment was lovely, and clean, with a very well-equipped kitchen. Ladies on reception were delightful and always willing to help. Only negatives I have is that there is no lift (and fairly narrow staircases) and no staff around once reception closes. I was slightly concerned that if I had a problem with my key that I wouldn't be able to access the complex after 8.30/9pm. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Clémence 31 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, communication Super ##### Clémence Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### sarah 16 Jun 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Odeurs nauséabondes dans les chambres Ménage mal fait Équipements cassés ou non fonctionnels/vétustes Rue ultra bruyante Point positif: le stationnement ##### sarah Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Martin 6 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Déjà répondu mais endroit parfait et personnel extra. ##### Martin Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Martin 6 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Hébergement parfait pour famille, très bien situé près de tout.

Fairly good location. It's not in the heart of Swakop but the town is small. It took me around 8 minutes (average pace) to walk to the Tug Restaurant (very good and a must-visit). Very friendly and helpful staff. Ample safe parking. Breakfast was excellent. Modern facilities in the room. Wifi very good. It's very handy for getting onto the main road to Walvis bay. The only minor issue was that the walls are a bit thin so I could hear voices next door. Not a big deal but worth a mention. I would definitely stay here again. ##### Trevor Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 11 Oct 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Schickes Appartement Leckeres Frühstück und sehr freundliches Personal .
