Very disappointed after this stay - staff let mosquitoes in our room and didn’t have a mosquito net so me and my partner were bitten numerous times after never being bitten in our two week trip to Namibia. We were served pork that was burnt on the outside and extremely undercooked on the inside resulting in food poisoning the following day. After raising our concerns with staff, no effort was made to amend this. Other accommodation in Namibia requested we have short showers to conserve water while Emanya has unnecessarily green lawns due to inappropriate sprinkler usage. Proximity to Etosha is convenient though

Initially we were abit annoyed with the insects flying all over while dining. But we know its in the middle of a forest. The place itself is newly constructed and modern, however the maintenance seemed a bit lacking. However the staff is beyond amazing. Our server Elsa was so amaazing that she made sure she remembered even the drinks and allergies of our group of 5. We celebrated our anniversary there and they were beyond excited to make a celebration possible for us. Thank you so much for that. Chalet wasn’t my style but still because of their hospitality I came to love it. Everyone else in the group loved the place already. I would encourage everyone to book this place, they make it feel like home.

Likes: The lodge has very decorative design and beautiful scenery. They even have a great watering hole that attracts zebras, giraffes, warthogs, and other animals. Dislikes: I did not like the windows on the bathroom doors that don't provide privacy, and the light shines into the bedroom and wakes the other person up. I also did not like the two gates you have to get out and open each time you enter or leave the property. There is also a set 4 course dinner menu each night, and if you don't like it, there aren't any other option around. We ended up eating snack food and drinking wine for dinner each night. And if you want to go on a guided game drive (safari), you have to book with another lodge because Emanya's truck is broken.

The bathroom was not cleaned and the toiletries were not re-filled. The price/value is way to expensive. Diner was ok for the first night but not good the 2nd day. There is no supervision in the restaurant. Nobody came for breakfast so after 15min I checked with a waitress, then another 30min we had to wait for 2 scrambled eggs, they were forgotten it. No mosquito net in the room, neither a refrigerator. For this price you'll find better!

The staff were exceptional and the property was spacious and quiet. Meals were good, though if you stay for more than 2 nights the menu is repeated. Some parts of the property were in need of a little upkeep and we didn’t enjoy the smoking of other guests when dining outside.

Excellent place to stay to visit Etosha near Namutoni. Dinner is an a la carte choice, but for vegetarians they specially prepared a different dish each evening.

Excellent hotel, with great rooms, superb food and great service. At a reasonable price. Some may think the hotel is a little far from the park (about 30km). But for me that did not matter, you have to travel a lot of distance anyway around Etosha so that bit extra was worth it for the above reasons. In comparison to the lodges in side the park, this place is miles better. So don't be persuaded to stay in the park. It offers little extra for a lot worse service.

It is a lovely place, the rooms are spacious, the service good, the dinner and breakfast tasty, one cannot fault the place. I was just a bit surprised to find a place, clearly inspired by the Cape winelands in the bush, just outside Etosha. I expected a bush lodge.I found it a bit out of place, but this is my personal sentiment. There is nothing wrong with Emenya.

I decided to treat my parents to a luxury stay at the Emanya. The place looked amazing and it could be, if not for the unwanted guests sharing your bed with you at night. There are tiny creatures in the beds and most guests won't notice them until they look closely at their pillows/sheets. You just feel something "walking" on your skin. Once you look closely, you won't sleep again - that feeling is a thousand tiny little living bugs falling down from the thatched roof onto your bed! I woke the owner at midnight asking for a new room. She was clearly aware of the problem, but not apologetic at all. She merely told me, they don't bite! OK, that makes me feel better at over N$10000 spent at Emanya for a luxury 2-night stay. She gave me a new room, but never walked with me to check that it was ok. The new room had the same problem - all the guest rooms do. No-one slept that night and it was too late to find alternative accom. The owner did not refund us for our terrible stay. Instead she kept saying the bugs don't bite and charged us the additional N$2600 for dinner for 4 people for 2 nights without so much as an apology. Unbelievable... and just shows that there is no intention to resolve the problem soon. According to the manager, the bugs live in the thatched roofs due to the grass not being treated properly. The dining hall has the same grass roof and I actually saw these bugs in my tea cup and plates as well. No doubt they fall into the food containers.
