We were late for reaching the camp that we originally booked near Sossusvlei and Capricorn Camp was a lifesaver. Karsten responded quickly to our last-minute booking. He came and showed us around. It was very nice to stay in this cozy place after a long journey. There is a gas heater, warm blankets, place for making a fire, a spacious shower. Towels and bedding are provided. And of course, countless stars above the property are just magical 🤩 In the morning, we had some issues with a tire compressor and Karsten and his helper were quick to come and offer help and advice. Thank you once again Karsten!

Quietness of the starry night is magnificent. The host is very friendly, accommodating and informative. The food was well prepared and presented. Keep in mind that you have to pre-order, since there are no shops nearby. We like his project of a field kitchen that he is busy with, so that self catering will be possible. . Due to the remoteness, the cottages are solar powered. It is sufficient for lights and charging phones, but don't expect a fridge or aircon. Water can be boiled on a gas flame. Tap water is very good. Better than most bottled water! Solar geysers provide for sufficient hot to very hot water in the showers. WiFi is only available at the main house. Good for digital detoxing!

The cottages had enough space and amenities. It was an experience worth having as you were away from the hustle of the urban space. You felt more connected to the natural world in the desert with little technology and the basics. What was wonderful was that the setup is off grid yet is self sufficient and produces much more energy than it consumes.

Karsten was fascinating and friendly. Everything we needed was there, big bathroom with a shower and toilet and washbasin. It was warm at night. The meals that we had with the host were the highlight, with the outdoor oven + zebra salami!

The visit was amazing. Karsten went beyond what was needed to ensure that we were well looked after including creating an amazing no fat dinner for myself to accommodate my dietary needs for medical reasons. He ensured the whole group, no matter the language, was included in the conversations over dinner.... Fantastic! Amazing! Unforgettable!

very clean with everything equipped, even a heater, a stove and 24h hot water. Pristine nature. Smooth check in. Good phone signal. Sunset view from door

Two hours drive from Soussvlei. 13km from highway

Love the peace and serenity there . Karsten is a great host. It was my second time in Capricorn. I enjoyed being there..good views, clean air good food and good company.

We stopped at Capricorn Restcamp for one night on our way to the Naukluft Park Olive trail and Sossusvlei. We really enjoyed the delicious and plentiful dinner and breakfast and great conversation with Karsten, our host; as well as the beautiful sunset from our very comfortable bungalow.

Karsten was a lovely host and great cook ! great idea to have dinner with fellow guests - interesting and enlightening exchanges

Everything that was there was good.

Would have helped if there were plates and something/a place to wash dishes, as it is self-catering
