Rainer Langeder

We stayed over for one night on our way down to Swakopmund. The accommodation and service is impeccable. Next time we will certainly take more time to explore the surroundings with their additional activities that they offer. Very good!!!

A nice place in the middle of the desert. The desert elephant tour in the river bed was well worth it.

We enjoyed our stay to take a little break in the middle of our trip. The place is very quiet, comfortable, the rooms are nicely decorated and original. The staff is attentive and the food is good.
