Where to stay

Some of the wonderful places to stay that we frequently recommended.

Sonop £££££

Namibia
Wilderness

Spread across a huge pile of boulders like an overgrown treehouse, Sonop is constructed from an elaborate maze of raised wooden walkways that link spacious canvas tents. The surrounding landscape is stunningly harsh: the rippling sands of the Namib Desert meet the dark rock of the Naukluft Mountains, as rugged wilderness encircles this rocky pinnacle.

The Delight £££££

Namibia
City

Bright and modern, this colourful hotel is positioned in central Swakopmund, only a short distance from the main beach area, known as the ‘Mole’. The cheerful interior is matched by the friendly service, with staff only too eager to help. There are 54 rooms, with 10 of these designated as family rooms. All rooms are bright and spacious, with en-suite bathrooms, air conditioning and heating. The family rooms are loft rooms, split on to two levels, with twin beds on both.

Onguma Tree Top Camp £££££

Namibia
Safari and Wildlife Lodge

Onguma Treetop Camp is a small and intimate camp, specially designed for those travellers who would like to truly experience the bush in all its raw splendour. This is where guests are able to come and relax for a few days in the midst of their busy travelling schedule, and just breathe in the aromas of the bush and take in all the wildness that this place has to offer. The camp is built on wooden stilts amongst the treetops with full views over beautiful watering holes on Onguma Game Reserve. The Camp consists of four thatched rooms with canvass walls, a dining room and the main complex. The water-level hide provides hours of game viewing opportunities.

Little Ongava £££££

Namibia
Safari and Wildlife Lodge

Built on the crest of a hill in the Ongava Game Reserve, Little Ongava offers wonderful views of the plains below and is an ideal base from which to explore. Accommodation comprises three spacious suites, each with its own plunge pool, en-suite bathroom, a sala, an additional outdoor shower and a view of the waterhole in front of the camp.

Sossusvlei Desert Lodge £££££

Namibia
Safari and Wildlife Lodge

Cradled against ancient mountains Sossusvlei Desert Lodge overlooks awe-inspiring dunes and stony outcrops – an unspoiled wilderness of vast spaces, endless horizons and rugged mountains. The Lodge offers luxurious accommodation in 10 free-standing glass and stone villas sympathetically built to the environment and designed to capture the splendour and solitude of the desert with absolute privacy.

Desert Homestead Lodge £££££

Namibia
Wilderness

Desert Homestead Lodge lies in a wide grassy valley, sheltered by the Nubib, Tsaris and Naukluft mountains, and with views reaching the distant dunes of the Namib Desert in the west. It offers simple but comfortable accommodation in thatched chalets. All 26 are en suite and are decorated with white walls and dark wood riempie furniture. Each cottage has its own veranda with northern views extending to the Rotterkaum Mountains. Seven of the cottages are family suites, whilst there is also the two-bedroom Reiterhaus – perfect for families with teenage children.
