"First Class"
Very luxurious. Good food and service. Only spent one night so did not take part in their activities.
Note : Recent big price rise in entrance fees for sights to around 250 – 270 Namibian Dollars for international visitors." See all these reviews: 26n in Namibia
"Camp Kipwe review"
Stunning and varied scenery on the drive from Swakopmund and some tricky driving on the D2612, but a fabulous welcome from such a professional friendly staff. Cold towels, cold drinks, then tea and cake!
Our room (No. 1) was gorgeous - spacious, luxurious, quirky and a fabulous view from our terrace.
The restaurant was so good - exceptional service and beautifully presented delicious food in a superb setting for both dinner and breakfast.
Great game drive with Ziggy who worked so hard for us to find the desert adapted elephants, when we also saw giraffes with babies.
The pool is very attractive but merely a plunge pool, but lots of shaded sunloungers for relaxing.
The sundowner spot up some steps was very special - a terrific view and nicely served drinks with some tasty canapés.
We were so impressed with everything about Camp Kipwe and the service was exceptional." See all these reviews: 14n in Namibia

Food was excellent and staff great. Trip to see the desert elephants with a knowledgeable and patient guide.
This place will live long in the memory (particularly the sundowners). Fantastic location with wonderful views.
Swimming in the pool whilst being watched by a gecko and a mongoose was especially memorable." See all these reviews: 16n in Namibia

There is also a sundowner spot at the top of the boulder hill that gives great 360 views.
We loved the desert elephant tour too along the huab river. This was pure bbc wildlife documentary stuff in real life and our guide ziggy was very good.
Stunning scenery. Twfellfontain is also very close by, which is worth a quick visit." See all these reviews: 21n in Namibia

The road to the camp is horrendous and it was a relief to arrive with the car in one piece & very glad we were in a 4 wheel drive! There were no activities planned on the first day, which was actually quite nice as it gave us a chance to chill.
The bungalows are quite sweet and we had a separate deck with chairs looking towards the west for sunset. The bathroom is all outside & it’s surprising to feel a little chilly in the shower when the temperature outside was so high.
The nature drive the following morning was great and we saw plenty of elephants as well as giraffes. We also did the afternoon drive to see the rock carvings and enjoyed that more down to the quality of the guide." See all these reviews: 15n in Namibia
