ONGAVA LODGE

Was sadly really looking forward to my stay here and maybe because I had just come from Onguma on the other side of Etosha, this place was wildly disappointing. The prices that they charge seem to be pretty high but the service is sub par, we were greeted by someone who I thought was a ranger but who turned out to be the host/receptionist.

The rooms were a far walk (I didn't mind but fyi if you have accessibility issues, it would be near impossible if I had brought my parents with me) and really really rundown (especially for the luxurious prices they're charging). Very little amenities in there and felt a bit dorm-like. The food was also really lacking.

I'm giving it two stars because I did like our guide (even though we didn't really see much on the game drive but not his fault) and the hide was awesome! I wish we stayed longer in Onguma on the other side.

Both Richard and I are very well traveled and have been fortunate to visit many luxury places around the world. We have found “Little Ongava” to be somewhere without compare. Namibia is a wonderful country and “Little Ongava” a gem within its many riches. The resort is simply magical, the experience one that provides so many enjoyable and enduring memories, and the staff incredibly warm, friendly and obliging.
Their passion and desire to make our stay so perfect resulted in the most fabulous time anyone can imagine.
The time has passed all too quickly, but we will for sure come back (we are already making arrangements for it).

Les chambres sont de grand confort,grande terrasse, douche au choix extérieure ou intérieure...Nourriture correcte, piscine, belle vue de la terrasse du restaurant sur le point d'eau. Mais lodge d'assez grande capacité, donc, plus de monde, on préfèrera finalement l'atmosphère familiale du Tented Camp.
