Goibib Mountain Lodge

Little oasis in the desert

Reviewed By pjack358

We originally booked for camping at Goibib but as we needed to get a very early start to get across the border we decided to rather stay in the available rooms. We were very impressed by the friendliness of the staff and enjoyed our stay in the clean and comfortable rooms. I would really recommend Goibib as a stay over, especially when travelling toward the SA border as it is only 2 hours away. PS: The camping facilities are also very neat and we would have loved to camp there.

Warm Welcomes, Comfortable rooms

This hotel is small, but the staff are friendly, warm, welcoming. The rooms offer the barest necessities but are comfortable with excellent views of the harbour. The hotel itself is within walking distance of most restaurants and offers a tasty and nutritious breakfast. Overall, a very, very enjoyable experience.

Fish River Lodge

Making the most of the beautiful vistas, the Fish River Lodge has been built in harmony with its stark, striking surroundings. Completed in 2009, all the buildings that make up the lodge pay tribute to the amazing landscape, offering spectacular views of the Fish River Canyon from sunrise to sunset. The architecture and interiors of Fish River Lodge have taken their queue from the rugged landscape that surround it. Contemporary, and at times monastic, the lodge was designed to reflect the unique beauty of its location.

Fish River Lodge

Reviewed By carolinesturgeon

The trip was part of a five week tour of Namibia with friends. The location of the lodge is unparalleled. The service of lodge staff is very good and they are accommodating and very hospitable. Unfortunately the weather was vert cold with gale force winds. There were numerous power problems creating electric shocks in the showers which was extremely concerning. Hot water is a major issue and the size of the ned - small double made for uncomfortable sleeping. However the staff were extremely helpful and moved us to a twin bedded room which was a major improvement. An excellent vegetarian dinner option was prepared for us.

We stayed here for two nights while in Lüderitz and loved it. From the incredibly comfortable bed to the small kitchenette, the room perfectly met our needs. Breakfast was tasty and we appreciated that hot options that were cooked to order. Our favorite part, by far, was the gorgeous waterfront view from pretty much everywhere on the property. Spectacular! The staff were all very nice and helpful. While the wifi signal was weak in our room, it was strong enough in reception and on the porch not to be an issue. An excellent spot to relax in Lüderitz.

Canyon Lodge

The harsh rocky desert region at the southern tip of Namibia has made many a traveller think that God has forgotten this land. Not so, just 20 kilometres from the main viewpoint of the Fish River Canyon, leading off the dusty D324, you’ll find the Canon Lodge, an oasis seemingly in the middle of nowhere. The Canon Lodge is one of two existing accommodation centres in the expanse of the 530 km² Gondwana Canon Park. Tall weather-beaten granite boulders mark the location of the lodge and forms an integral part of the overall design. The 30 thatch stone bungalows are dotted among the kopies and are beautifully designed, with the walls shaped around the hills so that boulders protrude into your room, cool to the touch and smoothly rounded by an eternity of erosion.

Will most definitely be back.

This lodge really wowed us in every single way. The chalets are perfectly spaced between ginormous boulders. Something totally different. The rooms were exceptionally clean, with high quality linen. We experienced the staff as extremely friendly. From the guy that carried our luggage from the car to the chalet, to the waiters at dinner and breakfast. PS. It was a far stretch and alot of luggage. The food was some of the best we had on our 3 week journey through Namibia. Buffet style. Thank you Kafula for setting up a picture perfect table for our 30th wedding anniversary. The pool is a way to walk from the chalets. That makes it even more special and private. It is huge, and has an expansive view over the barren, but beautiful landscape. Just one word of advice. As said. The pool is quite a walk from the chalets and the lodge was almost fully booked. We are now in a post Covid period. No reason not to open the pool bar. It was inconvenient walking all the way back to the chalet to get water and drinks. The chalet can also be upgraded with a fridge and coffee/tea making facilities. The main area is an intriguing old house full of memorabilia of the past. The view of the sunset from the dinner table outside on the terrace is prestine. Highly recommended. We will be back.

Canyon Village

Canon Village lies at the foot of a sweeping rock face in Gondwana Canon Park. Well-appointed cottages in the Cape Dutch style afford views of the vast canyon scenery. The thatched main building is built right into the massive granite boulders and houses a restaurant and cosy bar. With the famous Fish River Canyon just 20 km away the village is a perfect starting point for exploring the canyon. Dozens of murals depict the history and culture of the Bondelswart Nama, the earlier inhabitants of this area. Relish the peace and quiet and enjoy the views at the 'pool with a view'.

Nice and quiet place
