9/10 Wonderful! (86 reviews)
"Wonderfully situated in an out crop of rocks. Staff extremely helpful and friendly, can’t rate them highly enough. Good choices of food at both breakfast and dinner. It’s a 2 day drive from Windhoek but worth it if you want to visit Fish River Canyon"

"The roadhouse is quirky but fun. Staff were mostly friendly and competent, food was good, and our hotel room was comfortable. Remarkable considering how isolated it is. After a long day’s drive, it really felt like an oasis!"
