"Okaukuejo Camp review"
The food was excellent, the chief cook had a nice word to all the guests. The staf is not so kind at the reception, maybe because of having soo many tourists." See all these reviews: 8n in Namibia
"Okaukuejo Camp review"
The shop was a little disappointing in as much there was no bread, cheese, ham etc to buy. I had thought we would probably be able to buy things to make a lunch to take with us the following day. In the event we returned to camp and used the kiosk, which was good value,for a snack like toasted sandwich and chips was around £4.
The system of checking out then having breakfast, so giving them chance to check the rooms, worked well for us, as we had left a torch and some shower gel behind, which we were able to get before we left!" See all these reviews: 11n in Namibia
"Okaukuejo Camp review"
Room was comfortable and clean, great location near waterhole and for going round the park. Good facilities, shop, food, maps etc. We drove ourselves round the park (great game viewing and wonderful views of the salt pan) so can't comment on activities." See all these reviews: 14n in Namibia

"Waterhole room?"
The overall feeling in the camp was very corporate - imagine a holiday camp run by the civil service, and you wouldn't be far off. The food was OK but not great, with long queue's for the buffet, and a general feeling of being rushed through. Due to a powercut in the morning, the breakfast was restricted to cold meats and yoghurt, which was a bit disappointing as we'd paid for the full breakfast in advance, and no refunds were offered.
However, the amazing variety of animals visiting the waterhole made up for the shortcomings in the set up. We would have liked to stay another night for this reason alone, but the camp was fully booked so we had to move to Namutoni for the rest of our stay in Etosha."

"Okaukuejo Camp review"
The camp is geared towards mass tourism and the overall experience was unpersonal and not memorable." See all these reviews: 12n in Namibia; 2n in Botswana
"Wildlife at Okaukuejo Camp"
Staff were very good in looking after individual guests, who were in the clear minority. We had breakfast and dinner in a small room off the main restaurant, which was lovely.
The selection of food in the shop was unfortunately very limited, therefore there was no chance to use the BBQ." See all these reviews: 17n in Namibia
"Good location and waterhole."
"Okaukuejo Camp review"
Two nights in a row we saw elephant and rhino at the water hole. The water hole area gets a big crowd and can be loud due to inconsiderate people.
Room was clean and comfortable." See all these reviews: 19n in Namibia
