Unlike in some of the larger more corporate run lodges we had a much more intimate experience at Etusis. We were greeted by the host (and their pet meerkat 🙂) and subsequently dined with our hosts and other guests around a single table (eating lovely home cooked food introduced to us by the lodge chef). After dinner we sat outside enjoying the tranquility while watching the bats and a nightjar catch insects in the glow of the waterhole floodlight. Our accommodation was comfortable and private, set within the mature gardens looking out towards nearby hills which we walked within. Our only regret was having booked for one night only.

Nothing

The lodge sits in a beautiful valley, completely secluded and private. The rooms were private and well apointed. The food was excellent and served outside which was wonderful. The pool was lovely and the crazy golf super hard! We took a sundowner and saw springbok and zebra. The second day we rode horses up to the waterfall (dry at that time of year) which was a morning to remember. This hotel was one of the highlights of our holiday in Namibia. The hosts were very friendly and helpful.

Far off the beaten track, nestled amongst marble mountains situated in most beautifully landscaped garden you stay in cozy bungalows that lack for nothing. Attentitive managers (Monika & Johan) were there to assist with knowledge, conversation & tips. The food was tasty & they went the extra mile for dietary restrictions.

Nothing to not like

The family environment really makes you feel at home. The family is so nice that eats with you and share many stories. I never felt so relaxed and in peace. Must stop. Very clean, delicious food and beautiful horse back riding

We had a wonderful time at Etusis lodge - big thanks to Monica and Johan for taking such good care of us. The family style dinner, waterfall walk and going horse back riding were our highlights!

Nothing

This is an exceptional property. Monika could not do enough and I was made to feel very welcome. The food was proper home cooked fayre. I was looking for a place to chill and relax and it was perfect. I would definitely visit again.

Hardly a criticism but Wifi is only available in the Lodge and not the rooms. Not a big deal as there were plenty of private areas in the lodge in which to work.

- The farm & lodging is well kept and nice to walk around - We went horse riding for sundowners! Loved it! - The family atmosphere during dinner as everyone sits at a long table - They were able to accommodate a vegan diet You really feel removed from everywhere else in the world! My husband & I loved our 2day stay and met wonderful interesting people while we were day.

Nothing to dislike

Adele and the manager were warm and accommodating. They went out of their way to make us comfortable. We forgot our laptop and they ensures it was forwarded to Karibib so we don’t have to come back . What a service! They are truly amazing people!

We arrived at night and we got lost . The gravel road was a bit rough.

Unique place, you can feel your self like in time machine sended you 70-100 years to the past. At the same time is very comfortable and renewed

Bit long gravy road -30km. But you can see monkeys or antilopes on the way

stunning location, gorgeous well equipped room with air com and terrace, well stocked fridge plus kettle etc
