What Our Guests Say

Idyllic setting with a wonderful view of Brandberg. Has everything you could possibly need and more. I enjoyed walking around their garden with all the animals. Very creative place. Went on the game drive which included complimentary drinks. Our driver (Helmut) was great. We got to ride alongside a herd of elephants. Certainly a priceless experience. Also had dinner here which was really delicious. Definitely recommend a stay here.

We had a wonderful stay. This is a little piece of heaven! It’s amazing to experience such quality in such a remote location. This extends to the facilities, the food, the service, the staff and especially the natural beauty. The encounters with the desert elephants were magical. Clayton, our guide, knew every animal by name and told such interesting stories. Highly recommended!

My partner and I loved this place. It is beautiful and the staff is amazing. We should have stayed at the Brandberg White Lady Lodge for one night, but due to an issue with our car we stayed for one more. Both the staff and the owner were lovely and very helpful. They did everything they could to help us and let us have the best experience possible. We definitely recommend this place, one of the best of our entire trip in Namibia.

The lodge is located in a beautiful setting with glorious sun rises and sun sets that light the mountain in its awesome red glow. But what makes it really special are the staff – for us it started with the lovely warm welcome at reception. Each evening they sang wonderful Damara songs filled with their own special magic. The service throughout our stay was excellent.

A great lodge situated in a beautiful, secluded area. Suitable for camping, glamping or if you prefer to just stay in a chalet or room. One can really see the effort put into the lodge. Small details that go such a long way, lots of love and thought. Kids stay busy for hours, the food is exceptional, really outstanding team of friendly and attentive people. We’ll definitely go back as often as we can.

You honestly stay here for the desert elephants. We booked a campsite and not a room and thought it was reasonably priced. We had dinner and other drinks. Dinner was ok and better than some other places in Namibia. Staff were super nice and accommodating. My husband used the pool and it was pretty good but again the highlight here are the desert elephant tours. We went twice and loved every minute of it.

The place to be in Namibia. We stayed here now for the second time after Oct 2022 and we will come back. Rest, relax and watch elephants on their way through the Erongo riverbed. That’s all it takes. Friendly helpful staff, a lively always approachable manager and a sugary Meerkat. The only criticism of the food was the abundant amount.

This is a magical lodge, for the fact to know that you have the ancient history drawings in front of you. Very friendly place, spacious parking and too safe. The location is magnificent. A must go to for geologists, families and those urging for silence. I loved it.
