10/10 Excellent
"Lovely place to stay. Really enjoyed having evening meal/BBQ with the family/owner, and the food was fabulous, and fantastic view from the balcony. Very helpful in advising what/where/when re Etosha Park. Only minor problem was finding the place, take the D2710 off the C38, pass 2 cattle grids (the 2nd is about 30km along the D2710), and then travel a further 8km to see their gate on the right-hand side, which has a big red sign - Push to Open, and then travel about 2km to reception. And a 4x4 is essential for the last part."

"This review is for Epacha Lodge and not Eagle Tented Lodge. They are on the same property, but i was upgraded to Epacha lodge. The property really has a lot of charm with colonial architecture. You can see wildlife while being at the restaurant, which serves delicious food. The rooms are spacious, with balcony and outdoor showers. You can go to Etosha Park with 1h drive; a guided safari in Etosha is a must-do activity. Massages are great too. The staff is really adorable."

Etosha Oberland Lodge l Ondili

10/10 Excellent
"This is a lovely property in an incredible setting. It has its own white rhinos that come right up to the water hole just by the (rather cold!) pool (maybe cover the pool at night??). We were gob-smacked by this. The chalets are beautifully appointed and are huge with outdoor showers and a terrace overlooking the reserve. Some are a bit of a distance from the lodge so you may have to drive over. Breakfast is good and we were supplied with a good packed lunch. The staff are very attentive but the draw here are the white rhinos!"
