"Cornerstone Guesthouse review"

2 nights Arrived 23 May 2022
"A well presented, clean and comfortable B&B, ideally located within easy walking distance of the sea front and the town centre.

We stayed for just two nights, having a full day to relax and wander around the town.

A visit to the Swakopmund Museum was really worth while, providing insight into both indigenous cultures and colonial history.

Could have done with a second full day to take one of the excursions into the surrounding area." See all these reviews: 19n in Namibia

"Cornerstone Guesthouse review"

3 nights Arrived 30 Apr 2022
"We stayed in the apartment. It is big and roomy with lots of space for two couples. We would have preferred staying at the smaller B&B for the ambience and location of the smaller B&B.

We only interacted with staff at breakfast and they were very nice. It is a convenient place to stay in the area for exploration of the dunes, coast and desert." See all these reviews: 19n in Namibia; 8n in Botswana; 2n in Zimbabwe

2 nights Arrived 4 Oct 2021
"A pleasant stay in Swakopmund, with many nearby restaurants and bars. We also found a laundry to wash our clothes. And we had to repair one of our tires. Sort of a German beach town. The boat trip to Walvis Bay was wonderful." See all these reviews: 15n in Namibia; 1n in South Africa
