La struttura è posizionata in una bellissima posizione a ridosso del fiume con una vista stupenda. Molto gradito il caffè sul tavolino esterno al risveglio mentre si guarda l’alba sul fiume. Purtroppo oltre ai lodge e alle bellissime cascate ad Epupa non c’è praticamente nulla e nessun servizio

Super mais bien choisir la période pour les chutes

Super lodge, très nature et situé au bord de la rivière et a 2 pas des chutes. Cependant, nous y sommes allés en Juin et les chutes n’étaient pas complètement en eau donc un peu déçus d’avoir fait autant de route pour ne n’avoir vu les chutes qu’avec que très peu d’eau, ce n’était pas l’effet attendu… mieux vaut donc choisir une autre période pour cela.

prachtige locatie, helaas waren de kamers aan de waterkant niet bewoonbaar door de overstroming een week voordat wij er kwamen. Gastvrij en vriendelijk personeel. Bezoek aan de Himba's en Epupa falls is een must.
