Ugab Terrace Lodge

We had a great time at the campsite of Ugab Terrace Lodge. Bathrooms were spacious and clean and the staff really friendly. Although the campsite is located on the foot of the hill, it still has a nice few and just a short walk up the hill is the lodge, with a terrace offering great views of the Vingerklip and possibility for a drink.

We stayed hear for a night at the campsite on our way to Etosha National Park. The setting is incredible, perched high on a terrace overlooking the area's stunning scenery. The drive up the last few hundred meters to the lodge is not for the faint-hearted, but if that's an issue for you they will come and collect you. The welcome from the staff was wonderful; Friendly, efficient, helpful and highly professional. The three campsites are at the base of the terrace, they are well situated in a wooded area with amazing views to the East a hardstanding area, running water, a sink and waste bin. Each campsite has it's own spacious and immaculately clean bathroom.

The adventurous approach leads to the lodge, which invites a unique panoramic view into the distance. The lodges were tastefully decorated and lying out of bed there was a panoramic view immediately after waking up. The activities offered from zip line and guided walk and much more offer something for everyone. The pool is also spectacular. In addition to a good cool down, the loungers offer time for relaxation and sweeping views into the distance. All pictures describing the lodge are already posted here.

I'm going to be plain here: the campsite is simply overcharged. I had high hopes for this place but when it turned out that there's no electricity available I got quite disappointed. Lacking electricity for a campsite in Namibia is not a problem in itself - we stayed at several places without possibility of charging our devices during our trip, but those were available on half price. Shower and toilet are private and I have to admit that the view is great, but at a previous - similarly remote - campsite with private facilities, ELECTRICITY and even superior panorama we were charged less. Not to mention, that at the Ugab Terrace lodges - situated on the top of a hill with the steepest slope I ever experienced - they were able to manage to build up everything. So it kinda feels that they thought was 'campers should be happy with this and they also will be happy to pay more for the view alone'. Well, think again.

We spent a wonderful day at the campsite, three exclusive spots with private bathroom in a fantastic surrounding! Dinner up at the lodge was excellent with a stunning view! Service ist really friendly! Thumbs up!

The view is breathtaking, it's on the very steep hill. Don't even think to drive to the top with a regular car. The staff was helpful. The food was average. And something was wrong with the plumbung, and we couldn't mix hot and cold water, so it was hot OR cold, never lukewarm.

The staff at Ugab Terrace Lodge were very accommodating and they took excellent care of us, from perfectly cooked breakfasts in the morning to icy rock shandies at the pool in the afternoon. Our group of four booked two chalets. One member of our group has mobility issues, and I requested a room that would be easy to access. They gave us one with no stairs, and it was very close to the main lodge. It worked out great! I chose a lodge in this area because it looks interesting on Google Earth. We stayed two nights and spent a day driving around. This is a really neat region of Namibia, and I'm very happy I picked the Ugab Terrace Lodge. It's such a comfortable place to hang out. We also spent a lot of time sitting on the decks of our chalets, reading, chatting, and watching the colors of the sunset spread across the panorama.

We visited on 9th June Ugab Terrace Lodge. Lodge is perfect with beautiful views. Kids enjoyed the Zipline Hospitality by WP and team was awesome. The view is on the Vingerklip and worthwhile for a visit. Our previous visit was before the airconditioning in rooms. This is really the best value they could add to the lodge.

The views and scenery is out of this world. The accomodation was good, but the water mix between cold and warm was not good, it wasted the hot water. The food was average, expected more for the price paid, but the service was friendly and again, the views are really amazing.
