"Villa Violet review"
1 night Arrived 25 Jun 2019
"This B/B was clean and very basic. Very small room, no easy chair or room for one, uncomfy bed.
Friendly people, but we would have preferred to be in town for this one night.
Disappointing." See all these reviews: 16n in Namibia; 8n in Zambia; 4n in Botswana; 2n in Zimbabwe

"Very comfortable"
1 night Arrived 21 Sep 2018
"Excellent place to stay for a night or two. It was easy to find from the airport.
We could not eat out because we were waiting for the Duster to be delivered. They allowed us to eat a takeaway meal in the dining room." See all these reviews: 19n in Namibia

"Convenient, attractive, guest house"
1 night Arrived 4 Sep 2018
"We thought this an attractive, neat, friendly guesthouse with plenty of shaded sitting out areas and a nice guest lounge. It was easy to find from the airport and easy to reach the B1 the following day.
We opted for reception’s recommendation of finding an evening meal at Joe’s Pub which they kindly booked and was about 15 mins walking distance away and found it a very good choice.
The beds were comfortable and our only minor problem was that we struggled to find the ceiling light switch in our first room and couldn’t then turn them off completely.
Also, Heidi prepared grapefruit for our breakfast which we couldn't eat (because, for some reason, it interferes with a course of statins), so it might be better for guests to help themselves. Having said that the staff could not have been more helpful." See all these reviews: 11n in Namibia
