"In the middle of animals"
The waterhole was as spectacular as ever. Food very good considering the numbers served." See all these reviews: 12n in Namibia
"Slightly better NWR property"
"Wonderful floodlit waterhole"
The accommodation was spotless, cleaned throughly everyday and a good place in which to stay so close to the waterhole. The 'star' of the place is without doubt the waterhiole at night where in total I saw over 16 rhinos! All the staff were unfailingly friendly.
It's also a good advantage to have the post office at this camp." See all these reviews: 8n in Namibia
"Waterhole 1- a room with a view!!!"
We had a 6.30pm meal each evening which meant when we returned to the waterhole most people were leaving for a 7.30pm meal so we had no problems getting a bench to sit and watch all the activity.
Both breakfast and evening meals were buffet style and this meant there was ample to eat and choose from but nothing startling.
There is a large swimming pool area but we didn't make use of this whereas some people would really enjoy it." See all these reviews: 15n in Namibia
"Waterhole Chalet in Okaukuejo Camp"
We found the food pretty average and the main courses poor apart from good steaks. Vegetables overcooked.
We did not like the way our postcards were sorted in the PO into countries and left exposed to the public.
We did one night drive which was good." See all these reviews: 8n in Namibia

"Spectacular game viewing from the waterhole."
The dining room and the food are fine with good service.
We didn't participate in any activities as we drove ourselves around Etosha" See all these reviews: 13n in Namibia; 2n in Botswana
"two chalets - take the pricey one!"
The restaraunt facilities are what you would expect from such a large operation - fine but not splendid!
We had a good chalet one night and the best waterhole chalet the other. However much it cost, the second one was worth it - to be able to sit in a palatial bed looking out over a balcony and floodlit waterhole and see lions in the early hours of the morning cannot be surpassed."
