Homestays in Karas, Namibia

After completing my booking, I contacted the hotel to request a waterfront room. I was fortunate that one was still available, and I truly appreciate the hotel’s effort in accommodating my request. The ocean view from the room just stunning. Although the room is not very large, it is exceptionally well equipped-including a multicooker and a washing machine, which makes it very convenient for longer stays. A hairdryer is not provided in the room, but it is available upon request. The location is excellent: the port and a well-known Portuguese restaurant are within walking distance. The neighborhood itself feels safe and pleasant. Overall, a very good stay.

The place is simply beautiful. However it speaks in volume where the service level is concerned  We had an issue with our local Namibian guide where our trip was potentially in jeopardy with our rental car being withdrawn due to the latter’s mistake  The hotel manager, Johnny was awesome in helping us to resolve the issue and the service crew, Jessica, Ruby and Moses exhibited such care and concern that our flailing confidence in Namibians was restored  We applaud Gondwana canyon resort for having such a great crew and look forward to a visit again in the near future

Simple rooms, overall their value is appropriate. At dinner, dishes are cooked for a long time, confused in orders

The Eagle's Nest Chalet was one of our most adorable accommodations in Namibia. The small cottage we were in was really beautiful and the kitchen was excellently equipped so you can feel well around. Of course it is a little rustic, but it is perfect for the surroundings. Specially recommended is grilling at night – the hotel provides Braai plate and wood and we enjoyed it in two evenings. The sunset and the stars are just awesome – That's something we've never seen before. On one morning we received visits from wild horses and pavians. Absolutely recommendable accommodation for nature lovers!

The whole ambience, just great! All the people are friendly and relaxed, no stress on Christmas Eve 👍 Rooms very nice and clean We can highly recommend to take a look at the area around the Fish River Canyon

The location was great and the dinner overlooking the starry sky was great. The owner and staff were also very kind and told me the position of the Southern Cross with a penlight. In addition, playing in the pool while looking at the wilderness was an experience that I couldn't do easily. I recommend it.

The lodge is good, location is good, hot water in the shower. But. Apparently not quite the season in August, it was very cold in the evenings and crazy cold. No heating device was given. Breakfasts were very simple. Probably when another season, more attentive attitude to the guests. But we were crazy cold, we won't come back.
