Incredible Place
Incredible setting at the top of the world. Great views,great staff and food, excellent rhino game drive. I loved the accommodation. A definite bucket list spot. The game drive is long and very bumpy but probably the best we did in Namibia real wildlife seen especially the rhinos on foot

Lovely Place
Proper drive up the escarpment, tests your 4X4 driving skills ! It’s the start of the fun. The post card views from the pool are so unreal. Drove for the pool picture , wasn’t disappointed. The staff were great , friendly and hospitable. Would love to see it in the rainy season

Would definitely go back
We had an amazing stay at Grootberg Lodge and we really regret that we had to leave after one night. The staff at Grootberg Lodge was very welcoming, well trained, attentive and always smiling. The rooms are stunning and the view from the rooms and the lodge is absolutely beautiful. We loved the food . We will defenitely go back!
