Fine, but not "Gondwana Collection"
It's in a central location to the Namib dessert and is a green oasis.
As part of the "Gondwana Collection" I was a little disappointed by the feel of the place: more like a motel or mid-range resort than a chic hotel in the desert of Namibia. Expensive for what it is - causal dining (buffet, included in the price) and rooms nice but not as nice as the pictures. No fridge. A very annoying Wi-Fi system that requires a user name and password every time one connects or moves between the various Wi-Fi hotspots. While there was plenty of it (breakfast and dinner are included in the price), the food was only average: warmish, not hot; the meat was tough and it all lacked taste.

Poor
The food was good and ths pool area is nice.Staff are friendly
You don't get a lodge here you get a room.We expected a stand alone lodge.In reality we got placed in rooms that are sandwiched together in one long line. Unfortunately the laundry,workshop and recycling section was behind our rooms so if you try and sleep you will be woken up by the activity of the lodge . If you are looking for a quiet desert experience you will not get that here

Comfy stay, attentive staff.
Comfortable room, clean. Aircon worked well.
The second pool wasn’t kept as clean as the first one. But it wasn’t that busy so we just sat by the first pool all the time.

Fabulous lodge next to the red sand dunes and gemsboks aplenty!
This is a fabulously situated lodging next to the fossilized red dunes of the Namib desert. The gemsboks are attracted to the lodge and come in very close to its borders, allowing for optimum wildlife viewing and photography. The hikes around the lodge were very nice and there were many birds. The meals were very good and the staff are super friendly. The female chef was particularly charming and came out after each meal to see how we liked our food. There are two pools. A freak sandstorm with rain and thunder arrived suddenly one night at dinner and the staff quickly relocated diners from outside to safety inside and suggested we move our cars to avoid damage from overhanging branches. They were very kind and thoughtful.
This is an older property and the rooms are underwhelming, pretty small and have shared, thin walls. We asked to switch to a quieter room at the end of the walkway with no noisy next door neighbors and it was well worth it. The lodge was not full so I don't understand why they placed everyone tightly together in the first place.
