This place is situated at the most critical waterhole in Etosha visited by a leopard a lioness and many rhinos all night If you stay at the waterhole chalets you can even watch the waterhole all night and it is amazing The food is a disaster basically: what they gave me as vegetarian dinner I would not give to my pet -to say the least- it was a messy pasta with some left over veggies on it. The pasta was broken soggy and tasteless. The worst food I had in Namibia. I stayed at this place purely for the waterhole

Wir hatten ein Premium Waterhole Chalet – und das war wirklich erstklassig! Vom eigenen Balkon direkt auf das Wasserloch zu blicken und dabei Elefanten, Nashörner & Co. beobachten zu können, war einfach traumhaft und ein echtes Highlight unseres Etosha-Aufenthalts. Das Camp insgesamt ist gut in Schuss, das Restaurant bietet eine ordentliche Menüauswahl und die Qualität der Speisen war absolut in Ordnung. Das Personal war freundlich und wirkte motiviert, was den Aufenthalt zusätzlich angenehm machte. Ohne das Premium Chalet wäre es eher eine solide Drei-Sterne-Erfahrung gewesen – aber mit dieser Unterkunft war es für uns definitiv eine klare Vier. Empfehlenswert!

De check in vond ik nogal kil. Ze kunnen sommige dingen beter uitleggen en rekening houden dat veel mensen hier voor het eerst zijn. Het huisje is vervallen waar dringend onderhoud aan nodig is. De drinkwater plaats voor de wilde dieren is te gek. Prachtig aangelegd en met geluk zie je verschillende soorten dieren gedurende de dag en nacht. Het diner (je moet reserveren en er zijn maar 2 tijdstippen) was niet best. Het vlees taai en weinig. Het is te groot en de bediening kan je amper aandacht geven. Het ontbijt ging beter. Je moet 500 dollar sleutelgeld als borg betalen dat je de volgende dag terug krijgt. Wifi is om te huilen zo slecht terwijl er zoveel gasten zijn. Alleen in het restaurant werkt het (amper) Een gemiste kans want dit is de toekomst. Wifi is tegenwoordig een noodzaak geen luxe.

Okaukuejo would be a solid 4/5 except for one thing - as many have observed, it is oevrpriced for the standard of accomdation. On the postive side, I found the staff at the reception and restaurant all friendly and helpful (can't say the same for the gate staff). The food (Oryx steak) was absolutely fine, beer was cold, shower hot, and room clean - so all the essentials are covered. They just need to either upgrade the chalets or bring the pricing in line with the standard; but as the camp was fully booked, I think there is little incentive to do either.

L’hôtel bénéficie d’un « water hole » où les éléphants et la faune du parc viennent s’abreuver : nous y avons été trois fois et sommes rentrés bredouille… Le chalet en dur reste spacieux et propre mais c’est tellement vieillot.: il a besoin d’une sacrée rénovation Literie pas bonne avec une chasse d’eau qui fuit : peut mieux faire… Le restaurant ? N’en parlons pas - trois plats à la carte Bref uniquement pour une nuit et sortez du parc … c’est mieux

We entered Etosha at Anderson Gate on 7 April, day 8 of 25 and drove to Okaukuejo Camp for one night. We took the first dirt road to the left on entering the park but turned back halfway since it turned into a large “lake”. They had had a lot of rain about ten days prior. Saw a few giraffes. Checked into the camp and had 2 rooms next to each other. Pretty basic, but that’s how the park accommodation has always been, and we hadn’t been expecting anything different. The pools were clean and refreshing. Dinner was a satisfactory meal in the restaurant. We sat at the floodlit waterhole for about an hour that night but only heard birds. Game not dependent on this waterhole at the moment. Next morning we drove out the camp, turned left and headed towards Okondeka and did the loop back via Adamax. The park was so green, and the pan was filled with water. Lots of flowers, springbok, wildebeest, an ostrich pair with 4 chicks, 3 jackal cubs totally engrossed in their game right next to the car, zebras. Headed to Namutoni and then Onguma. Had to navigate many deep pools of water along the main road and saw a variety of game including oryx and two male lions near Namutoni. We enjoy staying in the park and don’t mind basic accommodation. Best if you can take supplies with you and bbq. Can’t wait to go again.

For the entire 3 days/2 night stay, we got absolutely pummelled with thunderstorms and this campsite simply can’t hold up to that. There were enormous muddy puddles everywhere and I had to walk around endless puddles and through little rivers just to get to the bathrooms (which are truly horrendous btw, muddy and filled with cockroaches). There is also only one ablution block for a huuuge campground, so it got very busy and very dirty. The campsites have absolutely no privacy and most don’t have big enough trees to create any shade. The staff seem exhausted and overwhelmed and I felt really sorry for them (dealing with hordes of displeased Germans is no easy task). I think during the dry season this would be a slightly less stressful experience, because it really was the rain that made it so rough. It’s still the cheapest place you can camp in the area, and the only place you can camp if you want to be inside the Western side of the park. If you are a less avid wildlife enthusiast than me (aka you’re not gonna get up at 5am to be the first person out of the camp gates to go see the early morning action), you could definitely camp somewhere nicer just outside the park gates and just drive into the park every day. This campsite is 50/50 because I would recommend staying inside the park, but the NWR resorts in Etosha need some serious work.

Don’t go there ! This place is a shame for Namibia. Everything was bad: unfriendly welcome, unfriendly restaurant booking, dirty room, dangerous electric installation in the room, … This is not representing the rest of our great experience in Namibia. What a pity. I would prefer sleeping in my car or with lions rather than going back there.

Camp molto grande, presenza di tante comitive....piazzole numerose, grandi, con tavolini e sgabelli fissi di cemento, luce e corrente....i servizi lasciano abbastanza a desiderare, non pulitissimo e con funzionamento non ottimale....personale piuttosto indifferente, poco cordiale, con decisamente poca voglia di "darsi da fare" per rispondere ad eventuali richieste!!! Bella pozza ma senza animali che nel periodo in cui siamo stati noi trovavano acqua a volontà ovunque! Market veramente scarno, da non farci troppo affidamento!
