Grootberg was my boyfriend and my favourite lodge in our 12 day self-drive of Northern Namibia. The spiced soups, hot fresh-baked bread and tender meats were better than I've had in most restaurants in Sydney. We made sure to thank the bashful but brilliant chef. The family & non-family members who run Grootberg sit at the table next to you... More

An amazing location with a view to die for. Well run establishment by the community and very comfortable accommodation. You need a 4x4 to reach the lodge otherwise you have to wait for the lodge transport to collect you. Really friendly staff and lovely atmosphere, great place to visit and catch your breath after a long drive.

What an amazing place! Perched on top of a high plateau, looking over the Klip river valley and for miles around is the Grootberg lodge. A small handful of 'huts' with terraces nestle into the rock face overlooking the valley and a larger lodge houses the bar, restaurant and small infinity pool. A word of warning...don't try to drive up... More

Had a fantastic 3 nights here. All the staff were lovely and the management team take a real interest in the guests and go out of their way to help. We were upgraded to one of the new family rooms which we didn't ask for, but which Dominic offered to make our stay more pleasant. Evening meals were a real... More

This was our second visit to Grootberg Lodge and still love it so much! The location s just fabulous on the top of Grootberg looking down Klip River. The place is small, has 12 rooms but is in process of finalising a few more. Each room is on the edge of the plateau with a small deck and fabulous views... More

This place is small- not for groups. Each room is a chalet perched on the slope of the valley. You can see tens of kilometers. This place is special. Only a 4x4 can reach it as the road is rocky, bumpy and the slope very steep. Built with the help of the EU it is managed by the people of... More

Our 2 day stay on Christmas day at this lodge was the highlight of our whole trip. Not only you have an incredible view on the valley but the staff is the friendliest we have met. Memory at reception was extremely professional always smiling and ready to provide all the information needed, the food was like a 5 star restaurant... More

A stay at the Hoada campsite is like camping in the wild with the comfort of a 5-star campsite. Everything is hidden within huge big boulders: bathroom, kitchen and even the lounge area with a pool and deck terrace with a hammock to lazily enjoy the spectacular views! The team was very helpful and friendly especially the baby staffordshire terrier... More

We had a great stay at Grootberg. I chose this particular place because it is somewhere where you can actually do walks, or did. Lions have moved into the area so no walking around. Great news for the lion population. Bad luck for my walks. The lodges at Grootberg are a bit basic but that added to its charm for... More
