"Perfect last night before going to the airport.

Friendly welcome, lovely big rooms with a great view. The leopard tracking was great fun and we got very close to a leopard which was awesome.

The facilities were good - it feels like being in a high-end field trip centre. The food was fine but not brilliant.

Overall, a good experience and a lovely setting." See all these reviews: 12n in Namibia

"We loved Okonjima! The leopard tracking and pangolin tracking tours were amazing! We were incredibly lucky to see a leopard kill a guinea fowl (our guide said he had seen a leopard kill only three times before in his 15 years there); carry it back to her cub; and cry out to her cub to find it. We saw the cub cry out later and eventually saw mother and cub reunited and then chased away by a brown hyena. We loved watching the pangolin, as well, and learned a lot about the animals from the researcher on our trip. The rooms were also excellent and, although not heated, it was nice to have a non-drafty building rather than a tent for a change. We also loved the hiking trails--we hiked two of them in one day after days of sitting in our car and driving through Etosha." See all these reviews: 13n in Namibia

"Fabulous warm reception from all the staff.

Our room was lovely with fabulous views. The food I have to say was superb and dinner has to be one of the best meals we have had in a long time.

The game drives we chose were Leopard Tracking in the evening and Cheetahs in the morning.

Leopard tracking was excellent plenty of game to see on the drive and we got extremely close to two Leopards.

Cheetahs in the morning had the added bonus of seeing the lions been fed." See all these reviews: 7n in Namibia; 4n in Botswana; 2n in Zimbabwe

"Had a wonderful stay at Okonjima.

Staff so friendly. Rooms had wonderful views of the savannah with plenty of wildlife.

Family of warthogs slept in front of our room at night — very cute. Food was excellent.

Activities were outstanding. Two members of our group did the pangolin tracking at night and were rewarded with 30 minutes watching a pangolin.

Had a sundowner in the company of 3 white rhinos whilst out of the vehicle on foot - very exhilarating.

Can’t rate this place highly enough." See all these reviews: 15n in Namibia

"Okonjima Plains camp is a great place to be highly recommmended.

We were delighted by the huge glass windows of our Standard Room. From our bed, we could see animals roaming in the bush.

Very good food, excellent service.

Stunning successful trackings of leopards and the day after of the white rhinos with one of their competent guides.Among the best experiences we have ever had ." See all these reviews: 21n in Namibia

"Okonjima was a perfect end of our trip. The standard rooms were huge and spotless with a fantastic view of the plains. The main lodge is very comfortable and welcoming with tea , coffee and cake and excellent food .

I was a little worried when I saw a long line of vehicles ready to take the guests for the afternoon activities . I thought we are going to be ten cars around a leopard . But everything is so well planned that the cars went in different directions and for our leopard tracking it was just our car ( excellent guide Martin) and we saw first a collared leopard and later her 2 years old son uncollared and very relaxed .

The next morning , we went to the Africat center and even though this is for their safety , it is still a little sad to see the cheetahs walking around their large enclosure. Still a positive and interesting experience." See all these reviews: 13n in Namibia

"Beautiful room and site.

Great opportunity to see the big cats we hadn't seen already.

Had an issue with a guide/drive here, but we mentioned this on a feedback form and the manager came and spoke to us about this directly to resolve this" See all these reviews: 12n in Namibia

"This was our second visit to Okonjima, as we had enjoyed our first visit. There is a great Savannah view from the standard room, with a large picture window.
Little has changed and we had an excellent leopard tracking activity.
HOWEVER, Okonjima is a cheetah santuary. When we asked about cheetah tracking, we were advised that they have all been eaten by the leopards.
Don't laugh." See all these reviews: 30n in Namibia
