“Wonderful staying”
+A wonderful place immersed in nature, where every detail has been thoughtfully taken care of. The owner has created an elegant, refined and welcoming atmosphere, making the stay truly special. Her care and attention can also be felt in the kitchen, where everything is fresh and homemade, with a clear focus on quality. And a special mention goes to Cinthya, their lovely dog, who is an adorable added touch to the experience! A truly charming place where you immediately feel at home.

+The setting was beautiful and such a lovely contrast to a day's international travelling. Andrea, Harold and Franz... it's a family run business that understands what travellers really value, warmth of welcome, meticulous attention to detail, cleanliness and wonderful, freshly prepared homemade food... utterly delicious. The accommodation is beautiful and lives up to or exceeds the pictures on Booking.Com. The entire experience for us was a sublime welcome to Namibia. Thanks Andrea
−Pointless question.

“accommodation beyond expectations”
+an excellent spot, gem, not that far from Windhoek. Very friendly hosts and staff. The owners paid attention to every small detail. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The restaurant nicely decorated. You can feel that the owners put a lot of love in this accommodation and this is experienced by the guests. Food being prepared by the host is delicious. The lounge is cosy with an open fire to make you feel at home.

“Most pleasant; I would return for a stay.”
+The food was very good both at breakfast and dinner. The staff most agreeable and helpful. The facilities are very interesting.
−The location is remote without a car. On the other hand, you had an enjoyable and quiet environment.

“A hidden gem close to Windhoek!”
+An old mission that's been completely renovated with taste and elegance. A wonderful surprise, a hidden gem near Windhoek. Even the drive to the mission, through the mountains south of the city, offers unexpected and beautiful views. Upon arrival, the hosts greet you with grace and immediately give you a sense of the love they've poured into what they've built, which is evident in every detail. The dinner and breakfast were a true demonstration of their passion and care,completely unexpected. This isn't your typical lodge. Go here if you want a moment to yourself, a moment of relaxation, care, and elegance.

+Очень тихое и уединенное место относительно недалеко от Виндхука. Как раз для отдыха на 2-3 дня. Отель новый, уютный. Есть хороший бассейн. Утром вкусные завтраки. Вечером ужины (за отдельную плату). Из номера виден рассвет. Гостеприимная хозяйка. Классный удобный номер, отличная кровать. Отличные десерты на ужин.
−Позиционируется как отель и высококлассный ресторан. Как отель - отличный, просто супер. А ресторан очень слабый для ужинов (завтраки вкусные). На ужин горячие блюда готовят слабо, мясо сухое и невкусное. Закуски тоже слабоваты для ресторана такого уровня, а вот десерты шикарные.
