We had this Lodge planned as a stopover on the long B1 road. But it was a hidden diamond on our Nimibia trip! The nice reet covered huts were spacy, well-appointed and offered a modern, fully equipped bath room. The lodge has a lovely terrace to view the animals coming to the water hole. The dinner in Namibian cuisine was excellent, the food perfectly prepared and tasted deliciously. The wine list offered more than expected (Thank you for having the shiraz from ReV, Stellenbosh on the list;-)! The service was perfectly attentive as well for dinner, for breakfast and on the terrace. Thank you for your motivation, we could feel your passion for the job! We can highly recommend your house.

We stayed here the night before our departure and after two weeks of safari. It was just what we needed. As soon as you arrive there is a sense of serenity. The rooms are beautiful and peaceful. The viewing deck is magnificent with a floodlit waterhole to spend the evening watching the great variety of antelope. The restaurant is worth 5* in itself, we had one of the best meals we had experienced on our trip. All of the staff were kind and helpful. We slept like a couple of logs and woke up wishing we could stay for longer. We enjoyed a walk of the grounds and came face to face with some zebra before heading back for a wonderful breakfast. There was a mix up with our bill that was rectified without us even noticing. Not only that but they offered a very kind gesture to apologise for the mix up. We will definitely stay here again and would highly recommend to anyone.…

We have been guests of Frans Indongo Lodge for several years and it has become one of our firm favourites. Almost like visiting family or even better. Being so ell acquainted, and remembered, our welcomes are of course special but so they are to 'new' guests too. The old maxim that a new friend is simply a stranger that you have yet to meet holds very true here. We love the place and the ambience from all staff. The managers are on site and very visible which is a very good sign although teh staff are competent to work independently when required. Meals are single menu or limited choice but can be flexible to various personal tastes. The wine list is very comprehensive and worth exploring but the staff are happy to help you choose. There is a small pool for sybarites and a large viewing deck over the game reserve. New this visit was a floodlit waterhole which drew in antelope etc., as the sun started to set each evening. Activities include a short game drive into the reserve to see animals including Rhino close to. Visits to nearby Cheetah Conservation HQ and several walks along marked and unmarked trails on the property. Accessed by about 18km of gravel road from the main tarred B1 highway the Lodge is about 3 hours 30 mins from Windhoek City.…

second time at this lodge, has become our favourite stop over on the way to the airport. Beautiful gardens, nice pool to relax a bit and a very nice deck for a sundowner and watch the animals come to drink. Staff is great, food is super, really like this lodge.

Although we were the only two guests staying this evening, they did not fail to meet all expectations. Dinner menus printed, table set with candles and great attention to detail. Amazing ambiance, tasty food and an exceptional breakfast buffet, just for two! I will happily visit again!

It is one of the best maintained and cleanest lodge in Namibia. Rooms are spacious and spotlessly clean. Staff is very attentive and food is decent and based on sets. There are different activities on offer. It is a short drive from the main B1 road.
