"Etango"
The manager shared too many of his opinions about immigrants and politics in my opinion. He actually said that not all of Hitlers ideas were wrong! I found his comments quite startling.
We also feel we were charged too much for the five minute drive to and from the airport." See all these reviews: 13n in Namibia; 2n in Rwanda; 1n in South Africa

"Nice location close to airport"
"Etango Ranch Guest Farm review"
Etango is a ranch and, although close to the airport, has a very rural feeling which we liked. The rooms are comfortable and very quiet. Food was very good. We had excellent steak (from Etango Ranch) for dinner.
I highly recommend Etango if arriving late or leaving on an early flight." See all these reviews: 27n in Namibia
"Etango Ranch Guest Farm review"
The host was not mincing words, said it how it was with a wry sense of humor. The steak was great and the garden/pool was refreshing.
A bit dated but it suits the hosts." See all these reviews: 10n in Namibia
"Perfect place by the airport"
"A pleasant oasis near Windhoek Aiport"
The accommodation and food were excellent and it provided a very pleasant welcome for us on our first evening back in Namibia (one of our favourite countries!). There was wifi in the bedroom.
We regretted having to leave early next day as it seemed a pleasing place to stay." See all these reviews: 19n in Namibia; 10n in Rwanda; 1n in Kenya; 1n in South Africa
"Etango Ranch Guest Farm review"
Greeted by Mrs Grellman who welcomed us and settled us into a very comfortable room for our brief stay.
Tea and cake in the afternoon was followed by an excellent dinner.
Thoroughly recommended." See all these reviews: 10n in Namibia
"Etango Ranch Guest Farm review"
The evening meal included an excellent steak - and we had had plenty of good meat earlier in the trip to compare it with - which was only marginally let down by an angel delight sweet." See all these reviews: 16n in Namibia
