Ongava Lodge

The Etosha National Park is Namibia's premier wildlife park, and home to great concentrations of game. Ongava Lodge is situated within the Ongava Game Reserve, a 30,000 hectare private reserve which is located adjacent to the southern boundary of the Etosha Park.

The Lodge offers the full Etosha experience, whilst providing superb accommodation and service. The main lounge and bar area both overlook the floodlit waterhole with wonderful views across the plains below, as does the dining area, where meals are served around a large 'family' style table. There is also a swimming pool for guest's enjoyment in-between game drives.

Activities include morning guided game drives in an open Land Rover into the Okaukuejo area of Etosha, where it is possible to see elephant, lion and many plains game including springbok, gemsbok, giraffe and hartebeest.

Guests can also enjoy day and night drives on the private reserve, which is home to resident white and black rhino. Tracking them on foot is a highlight.

Walks with a guide are also available, as are visits to a hide overlooking a waterhole.

Guests are accommodated in 12 luxury twin-bedded brick and thatch chalets, each with air-conditioning and an en-suite bathroom with a bath and a shower.

Each chalet is built on an elevated deck, which are linked by walkways.

Glass fronted doors lead out onto a private veranda, where guests can relax and look out over the bushveld and the waterhole.
