Didn't stay here but randomly ran into the owner Bruno in town and he was SO kind, offering to help us and make sure we were safe and got where we needed to go! We really appreciated his kindness and are sure it would be a great place to stay. If you need to contact them in advance, the office number is +264813100013 and his cell is +264811491051 and email is [email protected]

We arrived in this camp a bit by chance. We went there so much more that we spent 3 nights there. The camp is very well maintained and the toilets/showers are very clean.
Bruno, the owner is very friendly and always ready to help. Even to sing and play the guitar.
The camp team is also very helpful and offered us a little singing show the evening of our arrival.
Rose, the camp manager, can offer you an outing to a small authentic Himba village and another village where Owanbos live.

As described, it is a nice place. A big plus is that they offer laundry service according to a list of items, not cheap but ok (washing only or washing+ironing)

Report Check-In

As described, only thing to add is that outside alcohol is not allowed, everything must be purchased at the bar. You can buy cold beers and drink them in your own camp. Not sure of the price of beers but a single of Gordon's gin was 35 and tonic was 21. Water comes from well, nice and clear.

Nice campsite. Owner and staff are super friendly. Facilities are in decent shape but not the best. MTC signal was 3G but useable. Wifi in the bar area. At 150pp to camp, it's great value.

An absolutely wonderful campsite on the outskirts of Ruacana.  Came for 1 night stayed 2. Have wonderful tented areas each with own shower and toilet. Well maintained and cleaned. Option also to sleep in RTT. Bar and restaurant is serves great food had the Kalpana was excellent. The owners and staff are very friendly and put your comfort first. They even did a special traditional singing session. Swimming pool and Gym also on site.
Definitely very highly recommended

Simple campsite organised by a lovely group of women, who sang and danced for us one evening. We felt very welcomed. The pool with sun chairs and shade was a good place to relax and they prepared dinner for us at the roof terrace. A lovely place!

Indeed a very nice place. Very welcoming and lovely staff. We camped next to the tents and had our private abolutions (150 ppn). The whole camp is well kept and very clean, nice pool, restaurant, bar and even massages. Bruno is a perfect host. We will defenitely stay here again 👍

Perfect Place! We stayed here some days ago.
Nice campsite with pool. If you want, you can stay next to the tents and have your own bathroom.
But the real highlight of this place is Bruno,his wife Rosalinde, their work and the Community. The atmosphere here is indescribable like all of the people.
If you stay here (and you should ;)) watch the traditional Dance and have a chat with the people.
We come almost every year to Namibia for holidays. This was one of the best, if not the best, evening of all the Trips. We are very pleased that we met all of them.

Warm welcome. They offered us tented camp with private ablution for the price of campsite. Ablution very clean. We had a nice chat with owner Bruno. Good breakfast.

Rose, our host, and her staff were very welcoming. Although we intended to camp for R150pppn, we stayed in the tented camp instead for R400 for the tented room. Although a rustic seeing, the facilities are clean and neat. Highly recommended. A very good experience. Traditional dancing and meeting the local residents.

Still 150ppn. Good Wifi around the restaurant. The staff around Rosalinde and Bruno is great. The campsite seems to be normally combined with the tented places around a sandy circle. You can use the tents (incl the bath, electric) or sleep in your own vehicle. Very nice place.

We didn't see the campsite because we were offered to stay in their lodge tents for the same price. Very friendly staff. The dinner for 200 ND p.P. was more or less ok. Nothing special. The French owner sang some chansons while we had dinner. If you like it, good for you. Nice pool and wifi.

A nice spot to recharge ones batteries after the long drive. We asked for camping and were offered a tented camp for the price of a campsite. Comfy mattresses, pillows and bedding. Everything spotless. Very friendly and helpful host. Stayed longer than planned, because we felt so at ease. Will be back!
