We liked the ability to hike on the property. The guided tours offered were very well-run. We also liked that the lodge was connected by Namibia2Go making transportation very easy.

It was a little more expensive than other lodges on our trip, with dinner not included. They were working on the pool while we were there and it was a little loud - I’m sure it will be great once it is finished!

Chill and relaxed atmosphere, little personal terrace with a hanging cocoon chair. Nicely designed common areas like bar, restaurant and campfire. And probably the best memory of all worth mentioning - kudu (game) steak at dinner. Probably the best piece of meat I have ever eaten, reminiscent of select meats in Argentina. Note that I have tried it elsewhere and didn’t like, but their chef made it to a perfection, all guests were vowed.

The rooms and the bathroom are a bit small-ish. For a couple and if you have large suitcases may become tight.

Everything about the lodge was superb. The breakfast was exceptional. The layout well thought out. It’s certainly a place I would recommend and go back to.

We did the drive into the dunes. The guides were not trained. There was no information on the formation of the dunes, on the fauna and flora and a very sad lack of knowledge of the birds. There are just a few buck species. They did know those! It definitely was not worth it. It certainly not hard to drive into the dunes yourself heading east.

The sundowner tour with Chriszley was wonderful. The room itself is not big but does the job for a stopover. Would not spend my two weeks holiday there though. The bed was comfortable and everything was clean.

The quality of the food was not consistent at the buffet during my two Stays.

The hotel/lodge is well located & pleasant throughout - Gondwana are a little more expensive than is average BUT their lodges are of an excellent quality & their staff are very committed to giving a good service

With Gondwana, this question is difficult to answer. I’d like to see wifi in every room.

Everything about the place

Twin single beds. A new experience for us. We had requested a proper double bed.. The shop was not well stocked, only small sizes available. So we left with no memorabilia particularly Gondwana shirts and t/shirts that my wife really wanted.

Place was well decorated and had a very comfortable vibe. It is an oasis in the middle of Kalahari desert. Activities were awesome and we saw many animals during our game drives. Food selection was great. Staff were really friendly and made us feel welcomed

We stayed at various Camping2Go facilities in Namibia, but the Kalahari Anib tents had the most amazing views. The tent is fully equipped and ideal for travellers wanting to experience the camping vibe without having to deal with the hassle of setting up tents and transporting gear. A great time saver!

Stocking more e-bikes might be useful, since they cannot be reserved, and one needs to gamble on them being available.

The location was helpful or breaking up a very long travel day and the staff were nice enough. The dinner food options on site were great and the room was clean.
