Overview

Emanya@Etosha Game Lodge is a comfortable, well-presented safari base located just 20 minutes away from the renowned Etosha National Park in north western Namibia. Privately owned, the lodge accommodates no more than 40 people at any given time and has a fairly exclusive feel, along with a large outdoor pool and wonderful views of the surrounding scenery and wildlife. The all-inclusive rates cover accommodation, three daily meals and one activity per day.

There are 20 chalets, all decorated in a stylish, contemporary style. Amenities include air conditioning, tea and coffee making facilities, a TV and a safe. Bathrooms are en-suite and house either a shower or a bathtub. Some of the chalets have two beds, while some have a single queen size bed.

Etosha National Park is named after an expansive salt pan that covers roughly a quarter of the park’s total area. It’s known for its vast and dramatic desert landscapes and wonderful biodiversity, with tens of thousands of animals calling it home. The lodge leads thrilling guided game drives which reveal the park’s dense wildlife and breathtakingly beautiful terrain. Game drives take place in the early morning, at sunset and in the evening.

Plenty of animals and birdlife can also be spotted from the comfort of the lodge itself. The dining area and bar both overlook a busy watering hole where wildebeest, giraffes, sables, antelopes and more come to drink. There’s also a viewing deck which offers brilliant vantage points both for watching wildlife and admiring the surrounding natural scenery.

While there is no spa as such, foot massages are offered for those looking to unwind and enjoy a bit of pampering. The restaurant serves a selection of delicious dishes, and private dining can be arranged on request. There’s also a well-stocked wine cellar housing fine wines from around the world.

Children of all ages are welcome to stay at the lodge and those under the age of 12 get discounted rates for the game drives. Parents are reminded to keep their children under constant adult supervision.

  • We had such a good holiday. You did a fantastic job!

    The house in Marrakesh was ridiculous. We effectively had it to ourselves. The accommodation was borderline palatial.

    I actually think that the time we had in Marrakesh was sufficient. We could potentially have done a day by a pool but I think we’d done enough souk-ing by the end of Day Two.

    The hotel in the mountains was a shade more rustic than I was expecting, but all great fun. Stunning views. The guide / mule / cook team were excellent and our guide (Hassan) tailored the treks to our capabilities well. He was superb, and really made an effort with the kids. The second and third day of trekking were particularly good. Such an adventure for the kids.

    All the logistics worked seamlessly. Every aspect went like clockwork. Top marks. The advice on tipping was also much appreciated (I hate thinking that I’m getting mugged off or am potentially not giving enough…).

    From my seven-year-old son:

    I thought it was GREAT. The food was amazing and the culture was very interesting. My favourite bit was scrambling up rocks in the Atlas Mountains.

    In retrospect, I’d probably do the trip in reverse. Flopping on the roof terrace after the rigours of the mountains would have been even more satisfying.

  • We had an extraordinary time. It was magical and we couldn't hav asked or hoped for more. Thank you both so much for all of your time and assistance.

  • We had an amazing experience - absolutely loved it.
    Mohamed and Said were great and very patient especially with me going downhill - was quite nervous about the scree slopes and paths.

    Will be a trip we remember forever
