Africa Safari Lodge
8.6 (54 reviews)

Africa Safari Lodge ★★★

📍 25km West of Mariental on the C19, Mariental

"Everything was great, until we got into the bed. The mattress was terrible and the pull out mattress squeaked every time one of the kids moved, so we had almost no sleep."

Gondwana Kalahari Anib Lodge
8.9 (78 reviews)

Gondwana Kalahari Anib Lodge ★★

📍 01 Mariental, Mariental

"The lodge is located in a huge private reservation with lots of animals and beautiful scenery. The rooms are nice and clean and the service is mostly great. We took the sundowner drive and it was wonderful!!! The only downside was diners, since we came after the ”rush hour“ choices were poor and most of the remaining buffet food was cold. Disappointing. However, all in all it is a wonderful lodge."

Boutique Guesthouse Mariental
8.6 (42 reviews)

Boutique Guesthouse Mariental ★★★

📍 65 River Street, Mariental

"As a family of 5 adults, as part of a 9-day Namibia self-drive, we stayed the last night at this wonderful guesthouse. Though arrival was late at night, we were warmly welcomed by the most wonderful owner, Stefanie. The 3 rooms booked were very comfortable and spacious. There a a few good options for dinner locally including the Tahiti restaurant. We decided to eat the American-style restaurant at the Shell garage ( across the main road), food and service was great. Breakfast was excellent. Stefanie, I can only describe as angelic, really goes out of her way to accommodate the guests needs. If we are lucky to return to Namibia, we will definitely rebook- without doubt."

Camelthorn Kalahari Lodge
9.1 (35 reviews)

Camelthorn Kalahari Lodge ★★★

📍 Kalahari Game Reserve, District Road D1268, Mariental

"Situated in the sand hills on the edge of the Kalahari the location of the lodge is perfect. The individual chalets are spaced across the sand around the reception and dining lodge. The lodge overlooks a small waterhole and feeding station for animals and there are generally some about. Game drives are available and quite good but the number and variety of animals is limited as you would expect in the desert. Meals are provided and are excellent with an option for game at dinner. Staff are excellent, welcoming and efficient. The thatched rooms are spacious and very quiet complete with air conditioning and the beds are comfortable."

Lapa Lange Game Lodge
9.1 (42 reviews)

Lapa Lange Game Lodge ★★★

📍 Off the M29 Road, Mariental

"We had a very nice Bungalow, 2c, directly on on the waterhole. We have seen many animals the whole day. The dinner an breakfast was very delicious. The prices for the drinks was low. We recommended this lodge."

Bagatelle Kalahari Game Ranch
9.1 (62 reviews)

Bagatelle Kalahari Game Ranch ★★★★

📍 Bagatelle Kalahari Game Ranch D1268, Mariental

"We stopped off here for one night whilst travelling from Windhoek to Fish River Canyon, as its a short 3hrs 45 min journey to start your trip down to the far south. Easily signed posted from the main road and a stunning drive through the red sand. You are met at reception with a welcome drink and a warm smile. After checking in you leave your car in the parking area and a member of staff takes you and your bags in a golf cart up to your accommodation . They are lovely chalets well spaced out and private from each other and overlooks the beautiful red sand dunes .Our chalet overlooked the illuminated water hole and the rooms are spacious , bright and airy , a lovely comfy bed with mosquito nest and an en suite bathrooms. As with most other lodges they had a lovely deep roll top bath but low water pressure meant it would take forever to try and fill it, so it looks good but not much more. There is a nice bar lounge area at the main lodge , a curio shop, an observatory and a swimming pool. We had pre-booked two activities with the lodge: an afternoon drive and sundowners and a night drive. We walked back down to the reception to meet our guide and joined a full safari vehicle. The drive is around the whole estate which is vast, and you get stunning views of the red dunes and plains and the wildlife found there. However it did feel a little staged for us , they trip felt more like a fun drive out rather than wildlife watching . The guide didn't appear to actually have to look for any of the animals they seemed to be on the set route he followed . All of the animals had been bought in by the owners and even the rhinos would come when called. The most impressive thing we saw was a Cape Cobra trying to enter a weavers bird nest ( we were impressed that the guide found it but later found out that another guide had seen it earlier and told him it was there) What spoilt the trip for us was a group of Austrian teenagers on the vehicle who spent the whole trip playing Tik Tok videos on their phones, laughing and joking about what they were watching , constantly asking when we were going to stop for sundowners and then for 20 minutes singing pop songs at the top of their voices . We stopped in a nice dune location where we met with another vehicle from the camp to watch the sunset and the drinks and snacks were very good. We then returned to camp for dinner in the open sided restaurant near the pool area. You had a choice of two starters which were served to you , you then choose your main courses and sides from a buffet and then had a choice of two desserts again served to your table. All the food was good and well cooked. We then went out on a night drive where we were the only guests. This guide seemed far more knowledgeable and also allowed my husband to use his own lamp . Although we didn't see a lot of wildlife it was good fun and the guide was very informative , and we had an exciting fast ride home as a thunderstorm hit with torrential rain. Be "

Zebra Kalahari Lodge
8.6 (31 reviews)

Zebra Kalahari Lodge ★★★★

📍 Main Road, D1268, Mariental

"We stayed here for just one night. The peace and quiet here is amazing, a real get away from the world and the night time view of the milky way spectacular. The rooms are quite large with lovely verandahs to sit and watch any comings and goings of animals. The room furniture is tired as was the internal bathroom area. There is an outside shower, but it was too cold for us to use it. Each room is close to the pool. Wifi is only available in the lounge / common areas. The food is eaten outside, unless it's raining. The food was enjoyable. One of our party was gluten free and they catered very well for her needs. We did a sundowner game drive which was amazing and saw lots of different animals."

Africa Safari Lodge ★★★
"Security: it was secure My room was clean The cook who received me was friendly. The manager service was rubbish. I asked for a wifi password but she told me a story about not being able to extend to my room . She probably thinks I'm a bit daft and I don't know what I'm saying "

"You never expect such a beautiful place in this surrounding. Very good value for the price!! Only the pool is a little bit small and not well maintained (in August). But a place we could recommend at all."

Bagatelle Kalahari Game Ranch ★★★★
"This place is a great first stop on your journey and is worth staying a few nights. It allows you to instantly arrive in Africa while observing wildlife just meters away. The style of the lodge and interior is modern but authentic. Activities offer great value, especially the Bushmen Walk."
