"The lack of knowledge on Shipwreck / HVC transfer was a shame - but Sabina explained that they were both new lodges that your team had not yet experienced."

Hoanib Valley Camp

3 nights Arrived 19 May 2019
"Our favourite lodge - tent are fantastic / staff were amazing / setting magical

My biggest complaint was the 2 hour drive from the airstrip. I was not aware that the drive was so long - it may have been mentioned, but it really needs to be made 100% clear that the airstrip os 60km bad road (almost not a road in parts!)

Also you should have made clear to me that the drive from HVC to Shipwreck takes the same time and the flight do the the 2 hour transfers each end. Please make sure any future clients are told that the drive from HVC to SL is one of the most amazing drives you can ever do. We learned tis from other guests and felt that we had seriously missed out. The flight is only 25 mins but you spend 4 hours transferring to and from airstrips each end. Although I was offered the drive option by Sabina - it was not made clear to me that we were only saving about 1 hour in the car by flying."

"Quad biking was brilliant.

Feels like a ski lodge - nice.

Other activities involved very long drives so we didn't partake.

Rooms a bit cold and Hot water is an issue due to carbon neutral solar heating and lack of sun."

"Luxury lodging - villa was great - needed a good spring clean though

Etosha involves a lot of uncomfortable driving with not much to see away for the water holes.

The drought has really affected this area - very sad"
