Otjozondjupa Region accommodation from NZ$105

We had a wonderful time at Waterberg Wildness. We stayed in the Valley Lodge. Note that there are several different lodges all a few km apart. We enjoyed a self-hike and also did the game drive offered. It is guaranteed to see rhinos as they live within the farm/reserve itself. We also saw giraffes in the park. The plateau itself has excellent views. The evening buffet was good, although not extensive (beef and chicken and veg) because there were only 4 tables. All the staff were very helpful. The last 24km of the drive are in a gravel road which was a bit rough in places and a 4x4 is recommended to get to the lodges themselves, which is then straightforward. We did have a problem with our shower, but it was fixed within 30mins. Overall, we were delighted we chose to stay here when we were originally not sure whether to visit waterberg.

The pictures show thatched roof buildings, but we were placed in concrete structures with no charm despite the hotel not being remotely full. The real horror show was the restaurant. Service took over 1 hour to deliver food and al food came with missing components - no bacon on the bacon cheese burger, meat loaf instead of a burger, and schnitzel that was not thined basically a pork chop in batter

Staff excellent. Food absolutely excellent.
