“Unique space and beautiful property all round”
The Host were excellent. Great information in room. Never felt more at home. My stay was short but will definitely come back next time. Access to the kitchen and cooking yourself made it more enjoyable and felt at home.

This is not just a place to sleep, this is a special place you could call home. It has its own soul and vibe. Hosts are welcoming and helped us with everything! Also we had a needed flexibility. Important to notice: breakfast is breathtaking! I never saw such a huge selection of food for breakfast!

“A lovely place with affable interesting hosts”
We were met by Frenus who was lovely and showed us around, explained the washing machine (a bit of a welcome priority for me!), how the breakfast and kitchen were shared and generally made us very welcome. Also recommended a good restaurant. Felt like we'd made a new friend

A brilliant, comfortable place with very helpful hosts, who can point nice places in town for you and help to book any excursions you may be interested in. The self-service breakfast is amazing!

“A hidden gem😃”
Beautifully put together with a unique charm. I absolutely loved the fire oven, it added such a cozy touch. The complimentary wine and chocolates were a thoughtful surprise, and I really appreciated the access to the kitchen in case you need to warm up food or make yourself some tea or coffee. Breakfast was a full self-service buffet with a generous variety of cereals, cheeses, cold meats, teas/ coffees and additional hot breakfast. The owners are incredibly kind and welcoming, which made the stay even more enjoyable. The rooms are spacious and thoughtfully arranged, with small comforts like electric blankets and hot water bottles that really make a difference. I’ll definitely be coming back, with friends and family next time!

We have visited before and were looking forward to our stay. The welcome was hearty as were the included breakfasts which set us up for each day. It was helpful knowing our vehicles were secure in the rear compound, and we were pleased that laundry facilities were available.

“A truly special place to stay in Swakopmund”
I liked everything about the accomodation. The architecture, the friendly hosts Sibylle and Frenus and the location. It‘s in a quiet neighborhood close to the dunes and a bit further from town center and beaches. The room was clean and welcoming. The kitchen well equipped and breakfast was abundant.

Very friendly couple who run the place - they made you feel at ease in the space and were very accommodating. The rooms were beautiful and furnished very well (the entire space was eclectic, but cosey and did not feel out of place). The breakfast was a feast, if you are up for it!
