Gmundner Lodge

“Nice, but bad value for money.”

The staff and guides were lovely and helpful, and the rooms are incredible and probably the best thing about the lodge. The price was high—one of the most expensive lodges we stayed at in Namibia—which set expectations that weren’t met; it feels overly overpriced. The lodge has a deeply inauthentic vibe, being new and owned by an Austrian millionaire who resides in a Bond‑villain house on the estate. We had an interesting farm tour, but it was disappointing to see that, despite the owner’s unlimited budget and thousands of hectares, chickens and pigs are effectively battery‑farmed in concrete pens with no mud or space.

“Luxurious Lodge with great facilities but improvement needed on Guest Experience”

I had an incredible experience at this luxurious establishment, where every detail was meticulously thought out to make me feel at home. The beautifully designed rooms and communal areas were truly exceptional, and the food was nothing short of incredible, with an impressive wine selection. The staff, particularly the host at the restaurant, who was from Zimbabwe, went above and beyond to ensure our needs were met.

“Hochpreisige Luxus Lodge mit tollem Personal, sehr gutem Essen und vielen Aktivitäten”

I had the pleasure of staying at this luxurious lodge, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, always eager to fulfill our requests. The food was superb, with high-quality dishes and impressive wine selection, all sourced from the farm. Although the colonial-style furniture was aesthetically pleasing, it was a bit uncomfortable to sit on, and the gravel paths outside made it difficult to escape the sound of passing cars.

I had an amazing time enjoying the sundowner with Dr. Charly - it was truly special! However, I was a bit disappointed that we missed out on stargazing during our stay due to the guide's absence.
