"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."

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...
