Stayed for one night at the end of a short trip to Namibia. A great experience. Lovely cabin, attentive managers and staff, super food and best of all, an unexpected surprise at breakfast! Can’t recommend the place highly enough. Ten out of ten.

This was a delight to stay at. A real live Giraffe that comes to breakfast and the the most amazing hosts. Food was so delicious and the Chef made custom meals that you rarely get anywhere now a days. We didn't want to leave! Thank you so much for the memories.

Wonderful stay!
My wife and I happened to find this game camp just north of windhoek and are so happy we did. It stood out to us for its beautiful views, local game (giraffe, oryx, and others), comfortable and clean and luxurious permanent "tents", well-equipped kitchen, delicious breakfast, pool, and friendly and helpful staff (especially Sandra). They're in the process of adding more rooms as well as a restaurant, as of October 2023, which will make it even better. We loved it and would absolutely stay again and recommend it to others. 10/10!

The hosts and the staff are super friendly and welcoming. They cook the best bacons and eggs. The breakfast is good and tasty. Even got the chance to enjoy the breakfast and swim with giraffes. The room is clean and comfy. It was good that warming mattress is provided for the cold night. The kitchen is fully equipped. The hotel is just 20 minutes drive from Windhoek city centre. It is a perfect getaway for relaxing after the long flights and long transits. Definitely recommend!

lovely location and nice to wander round. Liked the giraffes. Be aware you need to phone to gain first time access then you get a gate remote and bring food, beer milk etc. Well equipped kitchen and lovely tents. Great sundowner location and good breakfast.

We stayed at windhoek game camp the night we arrived in Namibia. We were pleasantly surprised by how lovely it was. We were immediately greeted by their golden retriever who showed us to our room. The luxury tent was clean, well decorated and secluded. I loved that they thought of little touches like providing robes and electric blankets for when it is chilly. Bear in mind it is self service, but I would definitely recommend picking up some things to braii and enjoying the lovely view. Definitely recommend.

great stay
Very friendly and welcoming, had a relaxing time and thanks for the complimentary champagne. Room was lovely and the environment great but scale of farm and no restaurant means it mostly would suit short term stays of one or two nights. Some signage at the turnoff would also have been helpful as it could be tricky to locate if you don't have gps

Windhoek Game Camp - The Best place to stay
What a pleasure to stay at this facility! It was our last overnight stay before flying back to SA. Wish we could stay longer. The previous night we stayed in Spitzkoppe Tented Camp for a much higher prize. This was the worst experience ever. Keep up the good work Windhoek Game Camp!! Know where to stay in future. Thanks, Thanks, Thanks!!!

We enjoyed our stay here. Very close to Windhoek, make sure you follow the instructions on their site for getting to the place. The chalet are like a luxury camping (glamping). The best time we found for animal viewing is early in the morning.

True definition of S.E.R.E.N.I.T.Y
Where do I begin? Exactly what we were looking for. Peace and quiet place to relax and fully appreciate the landscape and the wildlife. Nothing better than waking up to giraffes in front of your balcony. Carla (owner) was incredibly friendly, accessible and accommodating. And her golden retriever who was more of our personal security guard who never left our tent the first night and came by regularly to check on us and get a treat of course. The tent itself was well kept and the grounds were manicured in the areas such as the pool/reception, entrance and in front of the tents. Cooking al fresco was great with the fully stocked kitchenette. No TV made it even better. We didn't miss a TV at all. Would stay again and highly recommend it. Thanks Carla!
