Namib Outpost l Ondili

The Namib Outpost resort is a very friendly 5 star resort. The staff are so friendly and helpful, ensuring that everyone has a super time while at the resort. We arrived by flying to the resorts airstrip. We received a warm welcome by Jason, who drove us to the resort about 15 minutes away. Our welcome at the we resort was very pleasant. This continued during our hole stay here. Our accommodation was very comfortable and the view over the desert was magic. Jason took us on two excursions, the Sundowner drive and Sossanvlei sand dunes. These were so much fun. The food at the resort was very good.

A bit of context first. My wife and I are in our early and late 60s respectively and generally have one ‘big holiday’ a year. While we always go ‘relatively high end’ we still look for value for money (so, for example, we still believe that ‘tips’ need to be earned but we tend to be generous when they are!). We have always booked through Scott-Dunn who always come up with a special trip that includes some amazing accommodation and are more than willing to amend the holiday to suit our specific requests. We were very lucky to be upgraded to the Outpost from its sister hotel - and what a place. Each room overlooks the desert and has a balcony looking out onto the savana. Each has inside and outside showers, indide and outside beds and LOTS of space! Meals were exceptional - with dinner being a fixed menu - while some things on the menu would not have been my choice - they were all superb! In reality - eat what's delivered, you will not be dissapointed given the chef (a lady called Sara) is clearly a culinary magician! We were looked after exceptionally well by all the staff ancd the location is to die for. I have no hesitation in giveing a 5 start review - thank you to all at Outpost - a truely memorable experience.

We stayed at the Namib Outpost towards the end of January 25 for 2 nightsThe long drive from Windhoek was well worth it. An outstanding Lodge with Epic Scenery, great accommodation and the food and service was first Class. We would especially like to thank Alan who made such an enormous contribution to our stay. Don’t miss it.

Great view and nice design of the rooms! Food is amazing too!

The best bed and rooms of all safaris, amazing sundowner cocktails and enjoyed all the much needed pools. A true oasis of excellence in the desert. Enjoyed our desert tour and the many sights. Food great service and evening chef outstanding - breakfast not quite as good!

We absolutely loved every aspect of our stay at this exceptional lodge! Special thanks to Given, our guide, Whitney at reception, and Erasmus, our waiter, who truly made our time unforgettable. Overall, the staff were incredibly attentive. Also, the views from our bungalow were breathtaking, making the entire experience from start to finish wonderful. Don’t hesitate to book – we’re confident you’ll love your stay just as much as we did!
