We stayed in 2 rest camps in Etosha. Okaukuejo & Halali (See seperate review for Okaukuejo). Our check-in experience at Halali was much better than at Okaukuejo, as the staff were much friendlier. Halali also had a refurbishment, but not to the same extent as the other 2 camps. Thus, it still feels like a laidback, rustic place to stay.... more

We booked into 2 rest camps into Etosha. Okaukuejo & Halali (see seperate review for Halali). The refurbishment of the whole rest camp is stunning and we had a waterhole chalet, which was 20m from the waterhole. The chalets themselves are 5-star and wonderfully appointed. Tasteful furnishing, lovely bedding , comfortable lounge area in front and private outside seating area... more

The new luxurious camp - the latest addition to Visions of Africa - consists of 4 luxurious tents with private facilities (open air view shower with enough pressure to make you want to use it for hours) each on a private wooden platform arranged around a well frequented waterhole steps from your porch. The tents are very well protected from... more

Our expectations were very high after reading all the positive reviews on this site. Our welcome wasn’t as nice as expected. The staff yelled at us to park our Toyota Corolla on a kind of overflow parking which had very large stones not really a place were you normally would drive with a 2WD car. Our room looked very nice... more

We spent 2 nights at Namutoni and were rather disappointed. We could not fault the 2 bedroomed chalet which was modern and spacious but we found the layout of the resort rather inconvenient. You are required to leave the car in a car park and are taken to a drop-off point nearer to the camp, but still some distance to... more

Our family of 5 adults, rented a van in Windhoek and drove to Waterberg, Etosha Park, Damaraland, and Swakopmund. Each destination provided adventure and natural beauty, but, the abundance and variety of wildlife at Etosha GREATLY exceeded our expectations! We spent one night at Halali due to its' excellent reputation for wildlife viewing at the waterhole. Our personal experience was... more

Sadly we only had one night at Onguma Tented Camp. It was extremely comfortable and very well run. The tents are well laid out and carefully designed. The food was the best we found in Namibia. David and Sandra from Zimbabwe who are managing it made us very welcome. I could not recommend it more highly. more

How I agree with Chocolate74! We were there in the 2nd half of April. The tents are new and huge - 30ft x 15 ft, but most of the space is wasted. The lighting is poor (except in the loo!). The hot water tank in Tent 7 obviously was not renewed and our hand washed underwear was stained with rust.... more

This place is in Position A for Etosha National Park, being only a few metres from the gate. It ought to be an ideal place to stay, but somehow just misses the spot and I don't know why - maybe it's a bit too 'corporate' and soulless. The grounds are immaculate with antelope wandering freely about. There is a nice... more

For me this was the best place we stayed at in Namibia - I loved it, but my wife preferred one of the other lodges. The accommodation was nothing short of excellent and consists of individual bungalows set on a steep hillside which are beautifully appointed and which are private from each other. Our bungalow had a view ti die... more

This was the most expensive place we stayed at in Namibia and it was the biggest disappointment: Staff were lazy, the tents were noisy and drab, the guides were clueless, food was basic, the pool was always dirty and there were never any towels. I actually complained on my return and they told me they were in a staff transition... more

Mushara Outpost is situated only minutes away from the Von Lindequist Gate to the Etosha National Park - so a perfect location for exploring. It was raining when we arrived at the lodge - however, as soon as we drove up, the lady at reception came down to meet us with umbrellas and showed us to our tent - a... more

There are only 3 suites and each is as big as a house! There's a lovely big sundeck with a nice view, indoor and outdoor showers and a sala with a daybed. Rock rabbits are scampering everywhere but they leave the daybed alone. It was too cold to to use the plunge pool but it was great fun watching all... more

Stayed here for a few nights with family (eight of us, over three rooms, with three kids) and really enjoyed it. The accomodations were very nice, set up on a hill overlooking the bush with expansive views, with a nice pool and cookout area/bar overlooking the water hole (where we would see lots of oryx, wildebeest, giraffes, springbok, etc.). The... more

Booking was difficult with NWR. First sent an email. No response. Then used the booking form on the NWR website. No response. Finally called a week before the trip. Found out that they are about 1 - 2 weeks behind in answering emails and that they would respond withing a few days.... Protested. Was connected several times and finally was... more

We stayed in all three of the NWR resorts in Etosha. This was the one we liked most - but it is still lacking a lot Booking was difficult with NWR. First sent an email. No response. Then used the booking form on the NWR website. No response. Finally called a week before the trip. Found out that they are... more

We stayed in all three of the NWR resorts in Etosha. This was the worst and overpriced. We booked the Jacuzzi Room for approx 1500 N$. First sent an email. No response. Then used the booking form on the NWR website. No response. Finally called a week before the trip. Found out that they are about 1 - 2 weeks... more

We had a very pleasant stay at Epacha (2 nights) in Aug 2007. The rooms are impressive: huge independent chalets nicely decorated, enourmous bathroom with bathtub and two showers (inside & outside). Many chalets are a long walk up a steep small hill from the common areas, they even have a golf cart to carry guests that request it, I... more

This was our favorite NWR facility in Etosha. I have written reviews of the other 2 camps. I must comment though that while typing this review I went to the NWR web site and noticed that they now have a rate sheet listed. Prices have definitely increased since I booked in Jan. '07 for our October visit. However even after... more
