"Nice idea, shame about the lodge..."
We love Etosha, but unfortunately we can't recommend Dolomite Camp. The idea is good, but the execution is poor. There is a long and steep walk to most of the rooms, with no certainty of assistance carrying your bags.
The staff seem rather uninterested and don't really understand what their guests need from them." See all these reviews: 21n in Namibia

"Dolomite Camp review"
The food in the dining rooms was good and staff , when we were there, pleasant. We left by taking the longer road out to the gate because there were water holes noted on our map. All but one of these was closed and we wished the we had known this before we chose this route. We did not take any of the drives." See all these reviews: 13n in Namibia
"Great location"
A lot of the waterholes had dried out so local sightings of animals were limited." See all these reviews: 9n in Namibia
"A wonderful place!"
When we arrived at Dolomite camp and saw the surroundings, the lovely cabins and the smiling staff we were all feeling very spoiled. This is a little paradise taking into consideration the remote location and the harsh environment.
Stunning view from the cabins with a lot of animals moving to and fro the waterhole. Day of departure we watched a beatiful sunrise and hearing the bush "waking up".
The last evening when parking the car, a big male lion put his head out of some bushes only 100m away and gave a mighty roar. This was the highlight of our trip and my heartrate was way above avarege during the few minutes he used to walk around us. Guess we blocked his way when he was checking his territory."

"Dolomite Camp review"
A beautiful camp, but the attitude of some of the staff was questionable. They seemed to be doing us a favour and need a course on customer focus." See all these reviews: 17n in Namibia
"Ideal spot for the waterholes."
We went on the game drive which introduced us to the animals in Etosha; wonderful.
As vegetarians, this was the worst dinner that we had in Namibia!
The tent was very noisy in the wind but comfortable." See all these reviews: 13n in Namibia
