"We arrived late due to car trouble and Namibian border trouble; Stephanie met us on the road after 10 pm and showed us the way in. Breakfast was wonderful, staff friendly and helpful."
"Location was amazing overlooking a waterhole frequented by animals.
Staff were wonderful and food excellent.
We only stayed one night unfortunately however we did 3 nights at a sister lodge (outpost) and the quality was the same. "
"Wonderful location on margins of Kalahari desert. Make use of hiking trails of partner lodge 8km away, where we saw giraffes and other animals. Tented lodge accommodation wonderful, but it did get extremely cold at 3 degrees during the night, so minimally ask for an extra blanket depending on the weather forecast. Swimming pool should be closed to save water, extremely cold. Dinner was good quality cooking, but European-international food, not what we have come to Africa for. At least have an...
"sehr schöne Lodge in der Nähe des Kgalagadi Transfrontierpark am Ende unserer Namibia Reise. Da wir den Park bereits 1 Woche vorher von Südafrika aus besucht haben, haben wir diese Gelegenheit nicht genutzt. Wir wollten hier noch ein bisschen relaxen, was wir einen Tag lang am kleinen Pool gemacht haben. Unsere Unterkunft war sehr schön. Das Frühstück reichhaltig und das 3 gängige Menü zum Abendessen sehr gut. Wir haben die 2 Nächte dort genossen."
"Incredibly friendly staff, went out of their way to make our stay special, good food and a very acceptable wine list. The room was good with efficient air conditioning. We had a great time!"
"Wir haben eine Nacht in der Unterkunft verbracht, um am nächsten Tag von dort in den KTP zu fahren. Die Grenze zu Südafrika ist nur 15 km entfernt. Wir haben uns sehr willkommen und wohl gefühlt. Als Pärchen bekamen wir ein großzügiges Familienzimmer, welches sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet war. Das vorab gebuchte Dinner war das beste, was wir während unserer 16-tägigen Reise gegessen haben. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wir würden dort jederzeit wieder übernachten und...

"Loved our 2 night stay in the Dune 2 chalet! Room was well appointed with an excellent view of a waterhole and the Khalahari desert - saw wildlife out the window everyday. Enjoyed the Night and Combo Game Drives with our outstanding guide, Gabriel - very knowledgeable and engaging with guests. Saw rhinos, giraffe, kudu, Hartebeest, eland, springbok, steenbok, maribou stork, oryx, zebra, and more. Outdoor dining area is set up as a Boma and nicely lit - dinners were very good!"

"We were there in February (Namibian summer) so it was hot in the tent during the day, and the huge water-filled cooling thingy (don't know what it's called) didn't help at all, if anything it made the tent hotter not to mention the noise it made. We decided to just open the windows and through in the warm breeze. It was better once the sun had gone down. Otherwise it was a great stay. Staff were nice and friendly and we enjoyed the sundowner game drive."
