Surprisingly excellent rooms
Being a state run camp we didn't expect such good rooms - they were on a par with most of the lodges we stayed at (particularly good shower).
Great location for Etosha but we didn't see anything at the waterhole.
Namutoni Restcamp review
Namutoni rests on its "designer" bathrooms and the atmosphere of the old fort. The rooms lacked mosquitoe nets and were smaller than at Okaukuejo. The food was poor, service indifferent and the waterhole simply not in the same league as the one at Okaukuejo.
We kept wishing we were back at Okaukuejo!
Namutoni Restcamp review
Much improved accommodation since our last visit in 2002. The bush chalet concept was excellent. The old style barrack type rooms are still there but look as though they have been refurbished as well.
No problems with the all inclusive concept of meals , although not as good as some of the private lodges with d'hote menu was quite acceptable . The Camp was quite empty so the service was fine.
Due to heavy rains the park was flooded in certain areas and some roads had been shut by the park authorities. This did stop not some good sightings LIon Hyena, Eland especially around the Chudop waterhole area. The Fischers pan drive was great for Zebra, Giraffe , Wildebeest, Warthog, Gemsbok. No elephants as they had all gone north.
Namutoni Restcamp review
Lovely new room very nice decor, but I must say I would prefer some sort of door on the loo,( it was only behind a concrete wall down2 steps) Actually this arose in one or 2 places we stayed in.it made the experiece rather public
Helpful pleasant staff

Namutoni Restcamp review
Water hole not as good as Okakujo. Courtyard of old fort an excellent setting for restaurant.
The new bungalow we were allocated was excellent.
The resort manager introduced himself and it is clear that the Namibian government is making a real effort to maintain high standards at the rest camps.
Great stay at the "Fort"
Reception staff better than other Etosha camps but accommodation was almost luxury and quite a pleasant surprise.
Food was from a la carte menu and with waitress service was of far better standard that other Etosha camps. Waterhole fine and gives very close experience to animals. Some very good waterholes nearby too and if you are carefull you should see pelicans and flamingo on the pan.
Elephant camp
Saff need to be more organised and more welcoming (smiles are free) the accomodation was excellent and we had great viewings of Elephants and other game from nearby waterholes.
