La Rochelle

Only had one night at La Rochelle to break up a long drive. Wish we had stayed longer. The lodge itself is a lovely building which is both welcoming and luxurious. We were fortunate enough to stay in one of the rooms overlooking a waterhole. The room itself was well equipped with a very comfortable bed and spacious bathroom. There are some lovely outdoor areas to relax in as well as the Lodge itself. We had breakfast and dinner in-house. Both were very good with attentive service (thank you Antonio) and delicious food. Dining room and table settings were stylish. We really enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to recommend.

Advertised as a luxury lodge it is indeed stunning at first glance. But room lighting hopeless and my A/c not working so sleeping in 31C hopeless. Bottles of water (free) reeked of bleach!. However, staff lovely and food ok - no vegetarian option as per usual in Namibia. Grounds stunning with free range turkeys and chickens. Just needs attention to detail.

Lodge magnifique dans un écrin magnifique. Décoration magnifique et très haut de gamme. Les lodges sont à l'image de l'ensemble de la propriété. Il y a des endroits aménagés pour observer les animaux qui viennent s'abreuver au point d'eau. La cuisine est excellente, copieuse et bien présentée. Vraiment un havre de paix.
