Discover Namibia - Lodges

Throughout this adventure in Namibia, we mostly stay in two- and three-star lodges and occasionally in permanent tented camps. Most properties have swimming pools, so don’t forget your swimwear. Below are a few of the standout accommodations. Arebbusch Travel Lodge Our guesthouse is only a 10-minute drive from the city centre yet is spacious with two swimming pools and one of the best pizzerias in the capital. It also has a beautiful garden enlivened with indigenous trees, which provide a habitat for a wealth of birdlife, including black-throated canaries, laughing doves and red-headed finches. Brandberg White Lady Lodge Our Brandberg stay is in the middle of nowhere. From the viewpoint, you will not see another property, just the ruggedly beautiful landscape of Damaraland and possibly some desert elephants in the distance. There’s a dining area, well-stocked bar, lounge, and two swimming pools. Lodges in Etosha National Park In Etosha, we stay within the national park itself – a huge plus for any animal lover. The resorts we use are either Okaukuejo, Halali or Namutoni. Each location has a restaurant, swimming pool and bar but the highlights are the flood-lit waterholes where wildlife regularly stops to drink and bathe. Worth knowing Wifi is available in several properties but not everywhere, notably not in Sesriem, Etosha or Waterberg. Due to the limited amount of accommodation within Etosha National Park, it is sometimes necessary to sleep outside the park on some or all of the nights we are there. However, this is rare. Where we stay will not impact the number of game drives we have within the park. Our rooms in Etosha are the only accommodation where mosquito nets are provided, as the park is in a low-risk malaria area. Additional game drives may be available at the Etosha sites, which can be booked on arrival for an extra cost.
