Very disappointing
I was really looking forward to this hotel from the pictures and yes the communal areas are fab but no one has thought of practicalities and comfort. There are about 20 parking spaces for 85 rooms, folk were parking dangerously and we couldn’t get a space. One receptionist on duty at 5pm. The children’s room in the family room has one very small, very uncomfortable Z bed which doesn’t even open flat. The grouting in the bathroom needs redoing. There are 12 sun loungers for 180 guests, so many disappointed - the pool isn’t heated and loungers in shade so even if you get one it isn’t comfortable to sit after a swim. This place could be so much( better with some thought.

Nicest accommodation in Namibia - but no waterhole
This was the nicest place we stayed on our 2 week tour of the country. Warm towel and free juice upon arrival. Gorgeous and large room. Two pools, nice bar area, huge buffet meals (better food than buffets IN Etosha). The room was a little low on lighting, but you don't spend much time there. While this was cheaper and nicer than other places we stayed, when staying IN Etosha, you get to be in Etosha after dark, and the floodlit waterhole was one of our best experiences. We heard some private reserves also have floodlit waterholes, so that's a major disadvantage. Overall, highly recommend - just don't make it the only place you stay at Etosha.

Wonderful Vacation Stay at the gate to Etosha Park
Our family had a wonderful stay at this lodge in Etosha. Service was excellent! The staff welcome you with cooling towels and drinks and help you through a smooth check-in. The lodge is very well maintained. The rooms are beautiful, spacious, have Air Conditioning, fridges, TVs, WiFi, nice bathrooms, and very comfortable beds and sofas. The rooms stay cool, so there is no bugs. The dinner and breakfast buffets were outstanding for the food selection and the excellent service from the wait staff. The wait staff made it a great experience for the kids! This place is great for the facility and amenities, and for the outstanding service from the staff as well! The lodge has some antelopes roaming around some areas, which was fun to see. In addition the lodge has an entertaining big reptile park for the kids. There is a big lounge, a souvenir shop, two bars and a restaurant. The three pool area is very nice and clean. Furthermore, there are two tennis courts, a spa, and a small gym with very good equipment. It was fun working out in the gym and seeing a dik-dik hoping by in the bush outside through the glass wall. The location right by the Entrance to Etosha made it so convenient to go into Etosha on Safari day trips and come back to the lodge to relax. The lodge also provides its own Etosha tour services and has a gas station and parking for those who self-drive. This place is a gem and a wonder of its own, and we strongly recommend it for families on Safari trips to Etosha!

Awesome lodge, in a great location!
Amazing lodge in an awesome setting. While the lodge was quite large, the service was amazing, the grounds were awesome and the rooms perfect. We also did 2 safari drives, which were fantastic. Wish we had stayed 3 nights rather than 2. It took us 6 hours to drive from Windhoek and be aware that there were police (unmarked) after dark who required us to stop while turning onto the park road. This was to stop Rhino poaching but was a little worrisome.

Decent property, horrible service
The property itself is a bit dated but not bad. Sleeping rooms have been renovated more recently than the common areas, with comfortable beds and modern bathroom fixtures. Location is excellent, with the park entrance just literally a few meters down the road. Service really could not have been much worse. Read my other reviews--I am not at all a picky person. But from arrival to departure service was really awful. We arrived late afternoon and no one was at reception; when we found someone, he disappeared for ten minutes looking for someone who could check us in. Pretty much every interaction had that same flavor, with staff either absent or indifferent. Worst of the worst was ordering a hamburger for lunch and literally finding a piece of sausage link sticking out of it, then finding a long string of sausage casing as I bit into it. The kitchen had clearly just mixed the leftover breakfast sausage links into some ground beef and called it a day. When I brought this to the server's attention and sent it back, he looked at me like I was being overly particular, and then still put it on the bill until I asked for it to be removed. We would not go back here again. There are many game lodge options in this area, including Mushara very nearby. No excuse for this level of service.

Great for the whole family
We stayed here with our son, daughter in law and three year old grandson. We all enjoyed it. Good facilities...tennis, gym, outside bar area, lots of sidewalks, playground. Generous buffets for breakfast and dinner. Rooms (we had two suites) were comfortable and quiet. The staff was very tolerant of our little one. I always felt like someone had an eye out for him. A very unhurried atmosphere, although our last night there were two big bus groups and things were definitely busier feeling. Nice little gift shop. Close to park. We toured on our own and saw everything from lions to rhino to giraffes to elephants. We joked about, "Oh, it's just a zebra" after seeing so many. Lovely hotel, lovely experience.

We flew with a small plane to the airstrip next to the Lodge, which was very convenient. The facility is beautifully landscaped, and with some wild (friendly) animals roaming around on the grounds. There is no town or other facilities next to the lodge. We took a couple of good game drives to the nearby Etosha National Park.

Lovely retreat after Etosha
Had a luxury 'suite'. Very nice room - good size with privacy. Staff were helpful when we arrived with a flat tyre. Dinner was a braai buffet but as we're vegetarians after a little persuasion of the service manager, the chef made a special vegetarian main (which was absolutely fantastic!!!). The only complaint was that the waitress serving our section completely disappeared after the starter and so we had to clear our own plates and ask a number of staff where we could get the bill from. It did take about half an hour until we finally received it. The staff on other sections did seem to work very hard so I think we may just have been unlucky. The grounds are nice to wander around, the bar was a nicely presented and well stocked area and the pool looked like a nice place to relax. The reptile area is worth visiting.
