I stayed three nights when attending a conference. Clean large chalet with bedroom, bathroom and lounge with kitchen. Some items and tiling a little tired, but spotless and functional. A good buffet breakfast. All the staff I dealt with were friendly and helpful. A free bottle of white wine in the room was a nice touch.

If you just want a bed for the night in Swakopmund with no frills, this is the place. It was clean and the staff at the reception was very pleasant. Unfortunately there was nowhere to sit in peace outside as there was a constant stream of vehicles coming past. Breakfast was very good indeed, they even had steak tartar and... More

This was indeed a great campsite. We booked for one night and loved the grassy (although slightly smelly from the boar water) site, private lockable bathroom, big braai and patio area. The sites are a short stroll from the beach and convenient to the town. A bargain for what you pay!!

We were so surprised (positively)! The camping places are very luxury: you have your own small building with shower, toilet and safe. Big covered BBQ place and private veranda. They even have wifi. It was not expensive at all, especially not for what is included. I can recommend this camping to everybody!

Conveniently located near the beach and a beach bar, the site offers camping with private ablutions. Each campsite is equipped with a washing up area, braai pit and power. The ablutions could have been cleaner, a lot of mould on the ceilings and walls. The water is also heated by solar only and so on cold, cloudy days the water... More

I rated this 9/10 in my TR and will give it the full Monty of a five according to TA's rating system. Green grass all around, right next to (or in?) the Namib desert! Each campsite has its own ablution facilities with a braai, electricity , a work surface and dishwashing sink! This means privacy and a short walk to... More

We spent three weeks camping in Namibia and Botswana and this is the best by far. It is actually the best we have ever come across in our travels in Southern Africa. Each site has it's own ablution facility, Clean, modern, spacious. It's like en-suite camping. The area is beautifully grassed with a built in Braai (BBQ), work surface, washing... More

Weather was harsh, stayed at campsite, breakfast was very nice, location excellent. Amenities basic, but probably exactly as necessary. First campsite experience, so cant be a good judge. Would prefer chalet at any given moment :-)

We stayed 5 nights here while getting repairs done to our truck, the facilities are spotless and cannot be faulted. Having individual ablutions per campsite made a longer stay easier, being close to the town centre and facilities was useful. The only downside to our stay was the loss of items in the laundry service.

We have visited Alte Brucke a few times and were never dissapointed. The staff are super helpful and can book a table at a local restaurant without even consulting a telephone directory. Laundry facilities are available too. We have stayed in the self catering apartments and well as the camp sites. Standards are high throughout. Will stay there again in... More
