Bagatelle Kalahari Game Ranch

Superb Lodge in the Kalahari

Reviewed By BiggySmiles

What an amazing place! We had a stunning room with a small private pool for our honeymoon. Staff were so friendly and helpful. Brilliant game drive with an amazing sunset. Cheetah Sanctuary is very surreal. Delicious dinner and breakfast - would recommend staying for more than one night!

ROOISAND Desert Ranch

A stone's throw away from the magnificient Gamsberg, on the borders of red sand dunes, with an abundance of Mountain Zebra and antelopes spread over majestic landscapes, fully solar-powered and sporting an observatory perfect for star-gazing - this is ROOISAND Desert Ranch - an extra-ordinary retreat for the young-at-heart!

Excellent Lodge and campsite

Reviewed By marcovollmar

Really outstanding location with excellent service. Lodge and campside are awesome. The starry sky is unbeatable, also an observatory tour is very worthwhile. Coming from Sussus Flai it was a perfect stop on our way to Windhuk.

Roy's Camp

Convenient Location and a lovely Atmosphere

Reviewed By Gisela M

Spent a night on my way up to Katima Mulilo. We took a chance and arrived without a booking, which was fine but I got the feeling this wasn't usual! So make a booking. I stayed in a chalet, which was quite convenient not to have to unpack a tent. Lovely little seating area - lots of birds and dikdiks. Breakfast was included and was delicious. I can imagine the vibe could be quite a party vibe if there were big crowds, but we had a quiet time. Well run, well kept. Would stay again.

A warm welcome

Reviewed By JDG764

This is a wonderful place to stay - and much more than a stopover driving from South Africa. We were given a great welcome, the rooms are lovely, and dinner (booked ahead) was great. There's lots of space to go walking - stay a couple of days and explore the area

Nice secluded camp

Reviewed By F1839BZkellyd

Camped here for a night with a plan to do the cave tour the following morning. Unfortunately, it rained all night, so the cave was inaccessible. The facilities were nice, with a lush view to the green-covered hills in the area. Reception area has strong internet, although not at campsites. Each campsite has its own braai, covered table, and indoor toilet and shower.

The ultimate oasis, 15 km from Swakopmund. Indulge in style and luxury in a peaceful and tranquil environment. The gym, outdoor lapa and spacious luxury rooms are the ultimate in terms of luxury and comfort. Wooden sun decks for a sundowner and amazing sunsets over the Namib desert and moon landscape. Just outside the fog line, Gecko Ridge enjoys beautiful sunny days.

Nice quiet location

We stayed here two nights, just a short drive to Swakopmund. Very nice grounds, lots of outdoor seating. Our room had a private backyard with outdoor braai. Kitchen was well stocked. Very nice and accommodating staff.
