    This is a hidden little gem. Gorgeous property in gorgeous location. What is not mentioned is that they have a cheetah sanctuary on their property. Rooms are quite simple but the property and surroundings compensate for it. I’d recommend to stay couple of nights to explore what the place I had to offer.

    Located 3 mins by car from Solitaire, very quiet and with good food and services. We stayed here as we did not find any accommodation in Sesriem but we are very happy with the choice!

    The name of the location is not correct. The Solitaire desert farm is now called Mountain Lodge. So when you use Google maps you end up on a campsite. The booked safari was canceled at the last minute.

    The food was excellent. The rooms spacious. Beds okay for tall people. Wonderful accommodation

    The name changed, but it was never given through. Thus, was it troubleful to find the location on just name bords without Google Maps.

    The food was excellent!

    Nothing, everything was great.

    Small but very nice lodge in the middle of nowhere! Very well taken care of, clean and very good attention from all the staff Food was also great. We asked if they had any local dish and the chef prepared something specially for us. It's great value for money after a long day out in the desert.

    The WIFI connection around the place is terrible, you can only get connected when you are by the reception area. The room takes in too much dust for my liking.

    It is a beautiful place and the location is awesome. The set up and everything is really just the best.

    My shower water was just a cold trickle, but it’s also in the desert, so what can you do really?

    The staff really made this stay for me. They were so friendly, fun and helpful. I loved the decor of the main building and the location. I got to see some foxes, kuru and an oryx just casually strolling around the property.

    It is still quite a drive to hike big Daddy and the dunes of Sossuvlei but, things are far apart in Namibia.

    Beautiful property, beautiful room. A little oasis out in the desert. The 2 staff members who checked us in, served drinks and food and took complete care of us, Thomas and Katerina were so friendly, kind and capable. We felt welcomed in every way. Highly recommend this place if you want to see the dunes in sossuvlie! Room was large, bathroom HUGE and a gorgeous view of the animals at the watering hole in front in the evening from the deck outside our room. Food in the restaurant was very good!

    Nothing in particular.

    The natural beauty of the place! We spotted a few animals coming to the watering hole in front of the premises. The staff are nice too. They prepared a takeaway breakfast for us in advance as we were leaving early in the morning the next day to go to sesriem. We really appreciated this.

    The only thing I could maybe complain about is that there isn’t wifi in the unit I stayed in. I am glad about this as it kind of forced me to read the book I had brought on the trip. If you do need wifi though the bar/dining area has wifi.

    The staff are awesome and the property offers very tasty breakfast, lunch, and dinner at very reasonable price. Lowkey was awesome at all the jobs he seemed to have on the property.

    Nothing to complain.

    I have been travelling Namibia for many years and stayed at dozens of lodges, but this place is a real gem! Everyone at the accomodation and also the management are doing such a wonderful job to make their guests feel comfortable. The scenery is amazing and the food is delicious. Highly recommended!
