Surroundings, location, staff

Double bed quality, small and not a good mattress

Amazing location, great dinner buffet. Loved the souvenir shop. Rooms were awesome. Loved the animals walking past the rooms

The lodge is located close to the Fish River Canyon's main entrance. The rooms are spread around this well designed lodge. The swimming pool is a great place to enjoy the sunset. The beds were very comfortable and the bathroom incorporated natural material to make it a very pleasant place to have a shower. Staff were very friendly and helpful. I enjoyed the sunset walk up to the hill overlooking the property. The buffet dinner was delicious with a great selection of dishes.

The rooms were quite far out from the main entrance so a bit of walking is required. The signage leading to the lodge is quite confusing as most guests end up going to the Gondwana Village instead, so this needs to be addressed.

what a paradise in the middle of nowhere. excellent food, extremely friendly and helpful staff, very luxurious and comfortable bungalows with comfortable beds. our drive with Simon to the Fish River Canyon was the best, absolutely book the drive in the morning because of the morning light. We think its absolutely better to take the guided tour to the Canyon, Simon explained a lot to us which was very helpful and interesting. we will come again.

rooms were delightful staff excellent but didn’t enjoy the buffet breakfasts or buffet dinners served food always tastes better

way too much rosemary garlic and red peppers in the buffet food

The personal attention given by all the staff.

Great location Mega views Lots of animals Fine food

A spectacular green oasis in an impressive desert landscape - with friendly and efficient staff, great meals and comfortable accommodation.

Stunning oasis, gentle thoughtful staff and beautiful location.

next to everything else the lodge was very flexible in moving my wrong booking (one month to earyl) to the right date without any penalties. Thank you very much!

only two things that could and should be improved: - close the outside doors during dinner; it was constantly too cold despite the fire inside, because some of the doors were open - offer one day hikes down into the canyon! (with a guide)

Amazing location, very friendly staff, good food.

Lack/ unavailability of family rooms.

Beautiful area to stay for a few days while visiting fish river canyon. The staff were great.

The pool could use a heating system.

Lovely location - built right into the outcrop of rocks. Really pretty area and clean rooms. Friendly staff. Everyone seemed very open and helpful. Took one of the guiding walking events and this was enjoyable.

The food was a buffet and not a great value for the price. It would have been great to have more activities organized by the lodge. We wanted to explore the area but there were not many guided or recommended activities for active travellers.

As we have experienced before with Gondwana: a professionally run accommodation with good and friendly staff. The lodge is beautifully situated and you can relax there in a nice athosphere. The silence, the space, the stars make a stay an unforgettable experience. And the buffet, in a word fantastic. Of course a shame about the grasshoppers but that's nature that one can't do much about i think

filter coffee in room help to bring luggage to room — a long trek even tho my room as he nearest electric point for my car fridge overnight

wifi didn’t work in the morning

excellent service. beautiful spot. exceeded all expectations

nil

Beautiful property, friendly staff, and incredible location. The food was delicious and plentiful.

The staff needs more training. It was like being at a summer camp of kids, quite friendly but not organized or knowledgeable.

Lovely property. Rooms are small. Great staff

Small rooms

The position is amazing and beautiful. The pool amongst the rocks is awesome.

The aircon in our room did not work and we asked to move to another room. They offer 350mb of Wifi and then you have to pay for more - in these times this was a 1st in a long time. Dinner is a fixed amount of N$ 460 which we felt is very expensive.
