Small lodge nestled in the mountains

Fairly spartan tented camp (only outdoor bathroom) but truly very welcoming in an incredible location amidst the rocks. I particularly appreciated the common areas of the restaurant and bar, which were truly very nice, and the fact that it is a small, intimate lodge. I highly recommend the full-day excursion on the riverbed in search of the elephants that have adapted to living in the desert, especially if you get our guide, who was truly exceptional.

Lodge with charm in the middle of nature

The lodge is beautifully situated in the middle of nature. The tents themselves are already pretty run down, broken mosquito net, doors that can hardly be closed. But the room was clean. But somehow that's exactly what made the lodge so charming. The bathroom is completely outdoors, that was quaint. Although I imagine it difficult in the rain. The staff was very motivated and the food was very delicious. We had great trips from here with our guide Ueera to the rock paintings and the desert elephants.

Discrimination Against Locals

I visited Khowarib Lodge and was deeply disappointed to experience blatant discrimination. As a Namibian local, I was refused service while foreign tourists were welcomed without hesitation. This kind of treatment is unacceptable anywhere, but especially in a country that prides itself on hospitality and unity.
Khowarib Lodge markets itself as a gateway to Kaokoland and a celebration of local culture yet it excludes the very people who live here. If you’re considering staying here, ask yourself: do you support businesses that deny service based on nationality?
We deserve better. Locals deserve respect. And Khowarib Lodge needs to be held accountable

Rustic but comfortable

Everything is nice in this lodge
Well-equipped tents with sanitary facilities outside for a shower under the stars although in winter the temperature drops quickly at night, unique defect of the place
Friendly staff and very good food
The tours proposed with Smiley the guide are really exceptional in sublime landscapes, the encounter with desert elephants was magical

One night stage between Twyfelfontein and Opuwo is more than enough

Rustic lodge that must be nice in the dry season located in the beginning of the Khowarib Gorge (toilet, shower and open-air sink ...)But that was for me the worst night of our 19 days. The rigid tents on stilts are very and / or too close to the river bed in times of rainstorms floods ... An impression that at any moment we would be swept away! A crackling sound heard at night ..... Dinner and breakfast not great.
