Teufelskrallen Lodge

Wundervolle Erfahrung! Es war wunderbar und einzigartig. Die Mitarbeiter sind unfassbar aufmerksam und freundlich, das Essen war toll! Die Unterkunft war sehr sauber und man hatte einen wundervollen Ausblick! Ein einzigartiges Erlebnis!

Tolle Zelte, die zwar einfach - aber dennoch Luxuriös eingerichtet sind. Toilette und Dusche befinden sich in einem kleinen Nebengebäude, welche über einen offenen Steg erreichbar ist. Kann man auch bequem nur in Unterwäsche hinüber laufen ;-) Die Haupt-Lode befindet sich 3km über privates Gelände von den Zelten entfernt. Abendessen, Service und Frühstück waren für unsere Ansprüche sehr gut.

If you stay in this lodge you will certainly remember it. The tents are built on stilts and located on the top of small dunes which gives you superb views on either side of your lodging. The “hotel” only have six tents so no over crowding! Some tents cater for 2 and are a bit smaller but have the advantage of having a terrace on either side (others seemed bigger and désigne to accommodate a small family). Out tents were very comfortable and had all the amenities needed for a one night stop. The shower and the toilet are located outside at the end of a “pontoon” so best to have a shower in the afternoon with daylight, the view from the Throne is impressive! There are only 2 minor things that some travellers might be aware of: it’s a bit of hike from the car to the lodge (up the dune) with the luggage can be tricky for some. The restaurant, pool and reception are located a short drive away from the tents and driving back in the dark might be an issue for some. Otherwise the restaurant offered nice menu and staff were friendly throughout.

Great lodge in the Kalahari Desert. Beautiful, luxurious tents with an amazing view. You have a lot of privacy. We saw a wonderful starry sky and the Milky Way from our terrace. The staff is very friendly. We went on a morning walk and sundowner game drive with guide Etosha. He shared with pleasure and humor his many knowledge about the area and the animals. Both dinner and breakfast were outstanding.

Perhaps a more correct rating would be 3 stars, but based on the very extraordinary kind service and warm welcome, we enjoyed the stay and would be happy to visit again. It´s inconvenient the lodge is approx. 3 km from the tents where you sleep during night and that the place is quite close to a not very nice / interesting town. Also, that guards are present in the camp at night (that they are needed). But additionally on the good side; very fast internet, nice dinner and nice pool area." Perfect stop close to main route to Windhoek

Première étape après Windhoek. Le logement sur pilotis est en haut de la dune. Évidemment, il faut peiner pour monter les bagages mais une fois en haut, on domine la plaine à perte de vue ! Les springboks nous attendaient au pied des escaliers. La salle de bains est à l'extérieur mais elle est fonctionnelle. Il faut prendre la voiture pour aller diner dans le bâtiment principal mais c'est vite fait. Le repas est bon. C'était l'anniversaire de mon mari. On a eu une énorme surprise en fin de repas : un excellent gâteau au chocolat et tout le staff est venu chanté et dansé Happy Birthday ! Merveilleux souvenir. Merci à eux !
