Kalahari Anib Lodge

World class! Premium Lodge.

Reviewed By debbieSouthAfrica

Have just spent a night at this fabulous lodge between etosha and the noordoewer border. The perfect place to stop. The rooms are stylish and have everything you need. Loved sitting on the verandah and taking in the scenary. Wifi worked very well at the main reception and restaurant and bar but we couldn't pick it up in our room. The staff are incredibly friendly. Breakfast was buffet and had a huge choice. We enjoyed drinks in the bar , around the fireplace and then the delicious buffet spread for dinner. The pork and lamb chops were out of this world. We would highly recommend you stop over here.

I was so surprised with this lodge. Really beautiful and tastefully furnished. The owners are lovely people who welcome their guests like family. Dinner and breakfast was fantastic and exceeded my expectations. This should be a four and a half star hotel / lodge.

Kalahari Red Dunes Lodge

Comforting and charming best describes the mood at the Kalahari Red Dunes Lodge. This is where Africa will captivate you in a laid-back and cheerful manner. The long-gone atmosphere of Africa safaris from centuries past seems to hover in the air. Enjoy the Kalahari desert from one of twelve individual guest houses nestled into the bankside of a natural dry lake where lots of wild animals are frequent to be spotted. The Kalahari Red Dunes Lodge is a very special place - let its magic work on you.

Simply Amazing

Reviewed By asperl100212

Contrary to many people who take at KRDL as first stopover, we saved the best for last. After experiencing different high quality lodges, we here found the most spacious, best equipped and most lovely decorated rooms, the top douche of all, luxurious diners - and a marvellous setting, which gives you a real "out of Africa" feeling.

The atmosphere was peaceful and comfortable. The location is clean, lovely, and the open area and decor appealed to me. The food was fantastic, and the service was excellent. I particularly appreciated the game that took place beside the bar. I will definitely return in the near future.

The lodge has 8 comfortable and spacious rooms boarding the main building with restaurant and lounge. All rooms have a large inside and outside shower in the en-suite bathrooms with double washbasins and separate toilet. The rooms overlook the modern infinity pool and the waterhole that extracts many animals at any given time of the day. Next to these standard rooms the lodge also offers five dunes suites or deluxe rooms, they are set more private away from the main building of the lodge with a large patio and lounge. The biggest reason to choose Zebra Lodge as your favorite place to stay in the Kalahari must be the Intu Afrika Game Reserve and the large variety of activities it has on offer.

Beautiful lodge, great location. There had been large amounts of rain in the early part of this year. This gave us the unexpected pleasure of seeing a " green" Kalahari desert. The views of the dunes that weren't covered in grass were spectacular.

Brilliant stay near Mariental

Reviewed By Curiosity64669632765

This place is outstanding - really idylic accommodation, wonderful setting, fantastic restaurant with a great menu, lovely bar and swimming pool and super friendly staff. I would highly recommend. Wonderful wildlife as well, just the icing on the cake. Marientel was an ok town, but at least it had the facilities of spar shop and fuel that we needed. Only a few hours drive from Windhoek, it was a good location to get started on a road trip. The lodge was a beautiful place.

Suricate Kalahari Tented Lodge

Suricate Tented Kalahari Lodge is situated on a red sand dune overlooking a pan system that forms part of the upper Auob wetlands. It is here that one can experience all the romance, all the adventure of the early safari expeditions but with style. The Lodge comprises twelve luxurious walk-in-style tents, well secluded in the Kalahari savannah. Each tent offers a private deck and an intimate open air bathroom with hot and cold running water, flush toilet and shower. A cozy African-style lounge overlooking the vast grassy pans of the Auob river or the pool deck is the perfect setting for drinks and meals.

Treated like royalty.

We stayed here for one night in the honeymoon suite as we were the only guests. What a treat. We had our own pool looking out over the waterhole. We saw springbok, giraffe and wildebeest. We were looked after so well - despite being the only people there. Dinner was so special - they put a table outside at the lodge by the pool with candles. What an exclusive setting. Food was delicious. They catered for me being a non meat eater too. What is not to love about it all. Reginald looked after us like royalty. Such a lovely man. We had to leave early (en route to the Fish River Canyon) before breakfast as we had a long drive laden with rusks and fruit!

A modern, well-maintained and attractive guest house. The owners were traveling but the friendly girl with the staff, modest as they are, went out of their way to please the guests. And they succed. The breakfast was rich and delicious.
