"Mushara Bush Camp review"

1 night Arrived 10 Jun 2014
"The comfiest bed I have ever slept in! Situated just outside the Von Lindequist gate on the eastern side of Etosha this place was a delight.

The attention to detail, second to none. When we returned from the evening meal we found our bush tent all set up for the night and they had even put hot water bottles in the bed to warm them up. The tents were very clean and equipped with everything you needed and more, including tea and shortbread biscuits!!

We only stayed here as Namutoni was under restoration, but it was truly lovely and very relaxing after a long days drive. Evening drinks were very reasonably priced here. A delight!" See all these reviews: 25n in Namibia

"A delightful stay at Mushara Bush Camp"

2 nights Arrived 3 Jun 2014
"We were warmly welcomed by extremely efficient and friendly staff and warthogs on the lawn! The reception area and restaurant is a large, open and attractive area and there is a well stocked tourist shop with a rather wider selection of nice goods than is usual.

The food was very good and the staff charming.

The tented rooms were spread out in the bush behind the lodge. We had everything we needed and we liked this camp enormously. We would have been happy to stay longer and have no hesitation in recommending Mushara.

Mushara is close to the East side of Etosha and the park is easily accessible." See all these reviews: 14n in Namibia; 3n in Botswana; 2n in Zimbabwe

"Mushara Lodge"

2 nights Arrived 12 Feb 2014
"We were booked to stay at the Mushara Bush Camp but we decided after the Nhoma experience to upgrade the stay to the Lodge.

The lodge was great and we really enjoyed our stay plus the game reserve was also excellent with loads of good game sightings. We chose a self drive and this worked out really well." See all these reviews: 9n in Namibia

"An excellent stay near to Etosha"

1 night Arrived 7 Jan 2014
"This camp follows the format of having individual tented "rooms" spread out within an attractive area of gardens. The accommodation is large and well-equipped.

The staff were very helpful and charming and the food was excellent, served in a large thatched open "Lapa". There is wifi available.

The Lodge is conveniently located to reach the Fort Namutoni Gate of the Etosha National Park after only a few minutes drive." See all these reviews: 25n in Namibia; 3n in Botswana

"Mushara Bush Camp review"

1 night Arrived 4 Jan 2014
"We had a flat tyre that we noticed in the morning, just prior to the departure. Given that we couldn't identify the puncture, and the hotel staff was just a bit too eager to help out - we got suspicious that it may actually be one of the ways the staff gets their tips.

Other than that - it's a lovely location. Beautiful rooms, lovely setting.

Staff was not even nearly as friendly as those in Adersson's Camp." See all these reviews: 6n in Namibia
