Travel reviews by Mrs V from Stratford

"Mediterranean style accommodation, not luxurious but perfectly acceptable. Had our evening meal there which was easy, good food pleasantly served. Good breakfast and provided a packed lunch the next day."

"Great welcome from Andrew who explained how everything worked, the maids whisked away our laundry and returned it promptly.

Willem was an interesting and helpful guide and took us for Sundowners and for sunrise over the dunes. Good food, choice of fish or meat which was good.

Enjoyed sitting on the deck in the shade."

"Very efficiently run, Bettina anticipated everything we wanted including an early breakfast so that we could go kayaking.

Very helpful suggesting restaurants and making bookings.

Excellent breakfasts."

"Good location for one night to visit rock etchings and petrified forest. Not many animals in rainy season.

Very friendly staff."

"Great location, very friendly welcome.

Festus was a great host throughout our stay and Leon a great guide.

Saw every possible animal at close quarters and mostly in large numbers. Rhinos and lions visited the lodge waterhole whist we were having dinner. Lions growling around the tents some nights."

"Slightly frosty welcome, told twice that we were late even through we arrived at 4.30. Think that they meant that we were too late for afternoon drives at 4.00.

New accommodation at Plains camp was good, central barn with restaurant and barn was nice but reminded me of a farm, which I suppose it is. Slightly lacking in atmosphere. Told when and at which table we had to eat, no choice of food. Saw leopard on the early morning drive, guide quite pushy to sell further drives.

Good for stop off between Windhoek and Etosha. Arrive before 4pm if you want to go on the afternoon drives."
