Super good. but a couple of comments! Namib Desert Lodge is a marvellous place. It is beautiful, clean, safe with very good service. But! It simply seems to have become too commercial. A couple of examples: How can you, in the Namib desert, offer accommodation without a refrigerator to keep even a simple water bottle cold? Or food for your small kid? Aaa, yes — people should go to the bar to get a cold drink. Or: The territory is beautiful! However, completely closed to guests (except for 3 walking trails). Why not open it up? The roads are there? Again, of course because trips are sold at the reception. Last but not least — why not give people the opportunity to do a braai on the veranda, the place is there? Restaurant. I could go on! We had 4 marvellous days at Namib Desert Lodge. I want to thank the staff for that. However, the concept of the lodge is for Chinese or US tourists and should not be marketed on the website — it is purely a hotel, not accommodation.

Excellent, but mistrust guests because they have a financial system that is not quite in the 21st century. Accommodation's location and restaurant are very good, staff excellent and friendly, including reception. However, when it comes to paying extra charges and the system doesn't work, you become a hostage to a greedy system that guests, who prefer not to travel with a lot of cash on hand, distrust and can't imagine any alternative. You have to try to pay as a guest on a broken cell phone and on an unstable WiFi with an app that has problems and is not accepted by my Swedish fellow traveler's bank, for example. At least it is already 2023 and organizations must plan for such an eventuality!

Uitstekend, maar wantrou gaste want hul het 'n finansiële stelsel wat nog nie heeltemal in die 21ste eeu is nie. Verblyf se ligging en restaurant is baie goed, personeel uitstekend en vriendelik, insluitend ontvangs. Wanneer dit egter by die betaling van ekstra kostes kom en die stelsel werk nie, word jy egter 'n gyselaar van 'n gierige stelsel wat gaste, wat verkies om nie met baie kontant ophand te reis nie, wantrou en geen alternatief kan voorstel nie. Jy moet as gas op 'n stukkende selfoon en op 'n onstabiele WiFi met 'n toepassing wat probleme het en byvoorbeeld nie deur my Sweedse medereisiger se bank aanvaar word nie, probeer betaal. Dit is darem al 2023 en organisasies moet vir sulke gebeurlikheid beplan!

Beautiful view. We stayed in the camping2go tent. Very tidy with comfortable beds, large bathroom and outside kitchen. The view was beautiful. Staff very friendly.

Prachtig uitzicht. We verbleven in de camping2go tent. Erg netjes met comfortabele bedden, grote badkamer en buiten keuken. Het uitzicht was prachtig. Personeel erg vriendelijk.

Number pass tent accommodation according to Sossusvlei. Delicious well-equipped 'glamping' tents in beautiful surroundings. Nothing is missing here! Tent layout ensures ample privacy. We come again!

Nommerpas tent akkommodasie neffens Sossusvlei. Heerlike goed-toeruste 'glamping' tente in 'n pragtige omgewing. Hier skort niks! Tent uitleg verseker oorgenoeg privaatheid. Ons kom weer!

Awesome. Had a great stay and was very spoiled with all the chamois that lie right in front of your door. Pool was nice. Food was good and just around the corner there is a pink fridge in the middle of the desert with water and soft drinks! Would definitely recommend the place to any type of traveler.

Baie lekker gebly en baie baie bederf met al die gemsbokke wat sommer voor jou deur lê. Swembad was lekker. Kos was lekker en net om die draai staan 'n pienk yskas in die middel van die woestyn met water en koeldranke! Sal beslis die plek aanbeveel vir enige tipe reisiger.

Incredible scenery and tranquility. An experience for the soul. We will come again and stay longer. Wonderful place.

Ongelooflike natuurskoon en rustigheid. 'n Lafenis vir die siel. Ons sal weer kom en langer bly. Wonderlike plek.

Unforgettable experience. It was as wonderful. Bakoor fox one almost comes out of your hand.

Onvergeetlike ervaring. Dit was as wonderlik. Bakoor-jakkals kom een amper uit jou hand uit.
