The main area, built of stone, canvas and thatch, looks out onto a much-frequented waterhole; where guests can observe the wildlife that come to drink from here. Â A swimming pool is also available to cool off during the heat of the day.
Guests can experience game drives in the Etosha National Park and on the private Ongava Reserve, as well as guided walks, birding and visiting hides to observe wildlife.
