Never again! Get more value for your money at any other lodge in the area. Here is why; Poor maintaining in general. Tents were not nice at all, I’ll get back to that later. Main area is on top of a hill, so you need to make a steep climb to get to the pool and bar. The pool and bar area has a lot of potential but it was not cosy at all. There were 3 tables to sit at, but in total only 2 chairs. We were with 4 people so we needed to take turns on sitting… Back to the tents; The tents are not maintained at all. For example; Closet was falling apart. It was still standing because of the pole it was leaning against. Window was totally cracked, one water tap wasn’t working, poison placed in the room for some reason, power plugs falling of the wall, in general a lot of stuff was broken. The deck in front of the tent has a nice view but during the day there is no shade. So you can’t really sit outside but also definitely not inside because the tent doesn’t have a fridge or airco, thats because they call themselves an Eco lodge but you have to do a 20 min drive 3 times a day to the main area to have breakfast, lunch and dinner… not really Eco… They tried to charge me 2 times while it was payed before arrival. Staff at the reception became VERY unfriendly. There is one person (staff) present at the lodge. You will find him at the bar but not when leaving the lodge or anything. Positive things; staff in restaurant was friendly and the food and drinks were good.

Dear Mr. SnijdersThank you for taking the time to report back on your stay at the, The Elegant Desert Camp. We truly regret you did not enjoy your stay with us and that we fell short of your expectations. Part of the appeal of Elegant Desert Camp is because of the location of the Pool & Pool Bar on top of the hill, giving our guests an exceptional view over the desert landscape and to be able to experience some of the most breathtaking sundowners. It is a property whose appeal lies with the close harmony with nature and its surroundings, trying to have a minimalist impact, compared to our usual mainstream property. We apologize for the lack of suitable seating at the pool area. The preponderance of guests sit on the hanging swing chairs at the pool bar. We have experienced some heavy winds and most chairs have been taken down from the deck for repairs, both due to being blown but also for some revarnishing. We acknowledge that we should have ensured they were back in time and that they should have been present. This has been remedied as we appreciate our shortcoming. We do regret that you did not enjoy your accommodation due to the lack of maintenance within your tent. We have realized that the cupboards have become broken due to the weight from some of the guests’ suitcases being placed on them. We regret that, notwithstanding how good the cupboards looked when purchased, the wood itself is compressed and not suitable for our conditions. This is being remedied but the replacements have not yet arrived. Our whole network system has been out of order since Thursday (09.05.24) night due to a lightning strike and meaning our Booking System have not been able to sync with our main service in Windhoek. Therefore, it still showed that your accommodation bill has not been paid yet. But we do apologize for the lack of communication on the ground and that they again asked you to pay for the accommodation when you checked out after it have been sorted out on the first day already. Our only relief was your comment that notwithstanding that we failed to meet your expectations, that the staff was friendly and the meals and drinks good.This is not the standard we deliver and as apology we would invite you back in future and host you at our cost to apologize for our shortcoming and show you real Elegant hospitality. We regret that we were not able to resolve your issues during your stay.

The Elegant Desert Camp has beautiful grounds, including an amazingly isolated feeling desert camp. However, in the summer months, the heat in these luxurious tents is almost unbearable (it easily exceeds 40C/104F during the day) and there are no fans, let alone air conditioners. While temperatures do drop overnight, they remain above 27C/80F for most of it. Fans would help. There is another somewhat awkward design feature of the luxury tents, which is that there is no wall or privacy screen for the toilet.

Very nice place. This was a perfect experience of desert. Peace, nature, quiet, animals, stars and nice pool. The staff was very accommodating and nice with us. I would go back there for sure.

Nous nous sentions seuls au monde dans notre tente face à une vue exceptionnelle animée par des groupes d’animaux qui viennent se rafraîchir au point d’eau. Les tentes sont spacieuses et confortables, et la terrasse est sublime pour apprécier le coucher de soleil. La piscine est elle aussi très jolie, l’eau est propre et entretenue (assez rare en Namibie). Nous avons particulièrement apprécié la gentillesse du personnel qui s’occupait des tentes (contrairement au personnel à l’accueil du Lodge, plus antipathique). Le repas du soir était aussi merveilleux, tout est très bon et le personnel est adorable.

Überragend, individuell, speziell und einzigartig. Nachts hört man die Tiere vorbei tragen und der Himmel ist voller Sterne. Die Aussicht ist einzigartig, die Ruhe phänomenal. Unbedingt hingehen. Hendrick, dortiger Head of Service am Camp (sehr glamourös Camping) ist sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich.

10 Chalets/Tentes privilégiés au milieu de la nature. Posez le lit sur la terrasse et laissez vous envouter.... La piscine de roche qui surplombe l'horizon est fantastique. Le brai à l'hotel était délicieux

Unglaublicher Service, würde ich jederzeit wieder empfehlen. Nur der Camp ist an eine andere Stelle als in der Karte dargestellt, beide Camps sind an der Lodge und nicht in sesriem direkt
