Travel reviews by Mr R & Mrs B from Portugal

"A very friendly and efficient welcome and was surprised to find a bottle of champagne in the room after Matilda found out it was my birthday.

A lovely first night of the holiday."

"A really great camp run by an efficient and very friendly team. The manager Maggy deserves a special mention as she runs what it seems is a very happy place.

We will not forget the first mornings breakfast when we were taken to the top of a hill and everything was laid out including a fire to cook by. All done just for us two. We then had a super game drive with Willem and spent sometime watching the elephants playing at a waterhole. A truly magical experience for our all too short time there and is a place we would love to revisit."

"This a new camp in the Western side of Etosha and very different from the other government run camps in the park that we have been to.

The accomodation is excellent but we do not think that guests with mobility problems would be too comfortable. There is a golf buggy to take guests from the car park but there are a lot of steps to reception then the restaurant and bar. The bungalows are then very spread out and the paths are steep in places and quite uneven.

However the setting at the top of the hill is lovely with great views as you would expect. The staff are very enthusiastic and quite different to our previous experience at the older camps."

"The accomodation has been revamped since our last visit and is now very good and comfortable.

The restaurant is ok but not brilliant and as usual most of the staff are just doing their job."

"This was just a one night stop but very comfortable with highly efficient and friendly staff.

The tent was lovely and dinner excellent."

"We visited during the quiet season so renovation work was being done and the swimming pool was not in use.

The room although large was rather tired but we understand some are being improved."

"The staff were very good and helpful but they were let down by a very indifferent management. There was no atmosphere which stemmed from the management who did not seem to have a lot of interest in us or their job.

Our guide Costa was excellent as was the food and the serving staff. It is a shame that they were let down. Please be aware that if you visit in the rainy season there is no roof on the bathroom! A place we would not revisit."

"A super location as it was so easy to walk to the falls.

The grounds were well kept and the overall standard of the hotel was excellent."

"Nice accomodation in pretty wooded gardens.

Friendly reception and knowledgeable guide on our river trip."

"This was a last minute booking as the lodge we were originally booked into was flooded but we were made to feel very welcome.

The bungalow was lovely witha pretty private garden and overlooking the river. Food was excellent and the owners were welcoming and helpful."

"We met our guide at the main road as arranged and he was spot on time wise. As we had 4x4 we followed him to the river and left our car there. The trip then by boat to the lodge was amazing and to come round a bend in the river and see the lodge overlooking the river was super.

The management Justine and Chris (relief) could not do enough for us. We could go out on the river when we wanted. The atmosphere was friendly and very helpful and we felt relaxed and comfortable. The guiding was very good and knowledgeable. On leaving we were given packed lunches for which they refused to charge us.

A definite place to return."

"This was just a convenient place to stop in between two long days.

The rooms were clean comfortable and the food good and service friendly."

"We were expecting an average place near the airport for our last night but we could not have been more wrong. It is really wonderful to come across somewhere like this. After 65km on a gravel road we were so surprised to find Eningu.

The rooms were large and well equipped and comfortable. We received a very warm welcome and were only sorry that we only had one night to enjoy this oasis in the desert. We were the only guests on that night but the lodge was prepared as if it was full. Dinner was excellent and breakfast buffet also.

A definite place on our return list to spend longer there."
