I feel that more needs to be done to maintain the place. Though the vintage style of the hotel is a nice pick, the furniture looks old and is not being maintained to still have a polished and new look despite being vintage pieces. The tips of the poles supporting the thatched roof were covered with plastic wrapping and cell tape- I’m not sure why…. The curtains were dirty and the aircon and conventional heater that was on the floor were both not working. We arrived at night so we were too tired to go back to the reception to ask for help as it was a bit of a walk outside considering that it was cold and windy - there are no phones in the rooms so this could possibly help in the future. Thank God we had tea and coffee amenities in the room so that helped to keep us warm- these utilities need to be upgraded too.

It’s right by the beachfront making it a great place to stay for those who would love to explore the waterfront especially for sunset and sunrise walks. It has a vintage style to it and an outdoor pool. The staff were really friendly, professional and welcoming. There is good security (parking spaces are right by the street side so it can look a bit daunting). I especially loved the shower design, it has ample space for two (or more 😂), the shower head is quite big and the water was really hot! Even though the breakfast was a la carte, it was good and served hot. Overall an okay experience for an overnight stay.

The waiting time at the restaurant.

The location is amazing. Just in front of the Flamingo lagoon. The staff is very friendly. Florence is the best.

Although breakfast was included, we were additionally charged for ordering a fresh omelet as it wasn't in the buffet. There was a limited wine list, so we had to order more expensive options than we previously wanted. Some of the la carte meals weren't available. Also... and please treat it as friendly advice... the staff shouldn't have complained to guests about the salary level and problems they were personally struggling with. We didn't feel comfortable about it.

This hotel is designed impressively in an old African style. It's located by the beach where flamingos visit Walvis Bay so you can admire these pink birds right from the terrace, however, it's a bit far from the city center, shops, and other restaurants. The rooms are jaw-dropping, the family room has a mezzanine and everyone who has kids knows that that ladder is those little creatures' obsession. There is a nice and well-maintained patio with a swimming pool and resting area. The restaurant offers various la carte options, drinks, wine, and cocktails.

The only thing I'd comment on in the breakfast - the warm section was a bit cold by the time I went to have breakfast.

Lovely staff, good dinner, comfy bed, quiet, safe. I felt very comfortable and enjoyed my stay!

Slow service at the restaurant.

We had a lovely big room, with a balcony, over looking the lagoon. Bed was very comfortable. Although service at the restaurant was a bit slow, the food was very good.

The rooms were a little dated. But in general matched the cost.

Rooms are a bit dated. But the location and value for money is what made this a good stay. Directly across the road is the pink flamingo colony. And 5 minute drive around the point is the pink lagoon. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

both at lunch and dinner there were work parties in the bar; the deluxe rooms right next to the bar (and the female loo) so v v v noisy; these rooms are also on the main road so large salt trucks rumble past at all hours. I moved to standard room at the back of the property. in conclusion, don’t stay in the deluxe room; you won’t get much sleep

staff v polite

The food... The salmon special was horrible. The kabeljou dish was horrible. They should really learn how to cook salmon. All fish dishes were smeared in sweet chilli sauce. Tastes horrible.

Not much, other than there was no official door to our bathroom, but there was a separate toilet rite outside out door, so we managed.

Everything from the staff, to our room facing the lagoon to the breakfast was all just what we needed. The staff were always available, ready to help with whatever we needed ie, tours, taxis, recommendations etc. We felt so well loved.
