This was planned to be a stop over night before getting to the airport to return back home so we booked something that looked nice but didn't expect too much as we only stayed 1 night. But this place vas the perfect place. They had so many different varied activities to book in and the food was great. We could easily have stayed longer! We managed to book hang by the pool, book in some massage and pedis at the spa and then in the morning after breakfast go for a course back riding tour before heading to the airport! We stayed in a family cabin so it was bigger than what we needed for that short stay. Staff was friendly and a plus was that a lot of the food, greens was locally grown.

One waitress was a little short/moody but we all can have bad days so would not put too much though into that as everyone else was so friendly!

Location of the hotel was very convenient and we loved the animals and birds that were roaming around the hotel. The breakfast was outstanding and the staff were very friendly. Accessibility for those with limited mobility was good as everything was on one level and there was ramp access to the main building.

The set dinner menu on one evening was very restricted and didn't suit all members of our group. The family rooms are located quite far from the main building and as a result we had to use the car to transfer our guests with limited mobility for meals in the evening, when it was dark and visibility was restricted. The family rooms would benefit from having a lounge area to relax in and additional plug sockets in the bedrooms (there were none).

We spent only 1 night there on our way back from Etosha. If I had to do it again, I would spend 1 or 2 more nights to enjoy the private reserve a little more. In addition to the wildlife, the views are really nice, red sand, mountains, Waterberg in the distance... Nice breakfast and restaurant in the evening. Staff was really firendly and helpful, as almost everywhere in Namibia, thank you ! The morning game is a must do !

nothing

We stayed at The Nest - wonderful private located property , 3km easy drive to Eagle Lodge. We self catered for breakfast but dined at the lodge in the evenings - friendly staff and great restaurant. We saw so much wild life from our acc plus during a booked sundowner . Our guide was very knowledgeable . We would highly recommend Otjiwa Safari Lodge / The Nest .

Nothing , all was perfect. We were sorry to leave !!

Perfect location on the way to Etosha from Windhoek. Great guide William with Rhino tracking, wonderful restaurant location

For us it didn’t become a problem, but two sockets didn’t work so n the room and the Wi-Fi also doesn’t work in the rooms, only on the main house.

The lodge, facilities and rooms are all excellent. The setting is beautiful and the walks/game drive is worth the visit alone. Lots of animals and birds to see. Maals are very good indeed and the staff amongst the friendliest and most hospitable I have met with in nearly 35 years of travelling to Namibia. All in all simply outstanding value for money and the perfect place to stay for a first night in Namibia.

Nothing to dislike

I liked the aesthetics. Amazing decor and very clean

The food, the main portions are too small. Fee options and resturant staff could be more attentive.

The newly renovated lodge was much better than anticipated and as rated. We can certainly recommend the lodge, especially the cottages which are much bigger than stated at booking.com. Food was the best we had in Namibia. Most staff were very responsive and friendly.

The breakfast was super good, but the food portions are proportionally small. This place is in Africa and we should feel home with variety and good food on offer from your menus

Beautiful hotel, we booked one night here during our trip to do the rhino tracking in the morning which was very good and recommended. The place is beautiful and the food is amazing, so different from the rest of places where we stayed during our trip in Namibia. Dinner and breakfast totally recommended.
