Overall Ratings & Reviews Canyon Village

Beautiful property and location, sensational sunrises and sunsets. Excellent service. The restaurant service is great, the food is disappointing, we would much prefer a more simple a la carte options to the buffet.

Very good. We had a wonderful stay.

Quirky country atmosphere, very good buffet dinner.

Fantastic location- great, super friendly staff, very clean and cozy rooms, fantastic restaurant. Very highly recommended!

The Canyon village was closed but next door is Gondwana lodge , great place , on our arrival we discovered we had a flat tire, the maintenance manager kindly fixed it for us, no charge , repair lasted for our two week trip.The lodge is like bedrock re Flinkstones , great setting among huge rocks , highly recommend.

The surroundings where so beautiful & very peaceful. The staff was very friendly and ready to help. Will not hesitate to recommend this place.

The Canyon Village was closed, and we had a booking confermation

Fabulous setting among cliffs and boulders which can be accessed for walks/hikes. Lovely lodge with nice pool area. Great staff who look after all your needs with genuine enthusiasm and good humour. We loved it.

Excellent lodge / chalet in the wild areas near the Fish River Canyon. The facility is in great shape with an excellent and attentive staff. There are activities that can be easily organized or just hang around the pool. We hiked and enjoyed the views as well as the explanations of local plants & animals from the staff guides.

Such nice staff!!!!!!! And also a beautiful place to stay. Only disadvantage were the separate beds but doe the rest really great!!! Super nice guy who guided us to a sundowner location as well!

Very nice property but spoilt by tour groups - mostly French and German, - and staff seemed unable or unwilling to cope at breakfast after they had devoured most of the food and cups and utensils

The close proximity to the canyon was ideal. The local trail hike was invigorating but needs some attention in the way of markers for those that decide to do without a guide.

We loved Canon Village! A beautiful chalet in a stunning settings. The room was very comfortable and between us we finished many books lying on our bed, sitting on our veranda and by the gorgeous poolside - when we could fit them in among the beautiful walks (sensational at sunset and plenty of mongoose and game to see) that you can do around the place as well as of course, the short drive to Fish River Canyon. A comfortable, relaxing stay - thank you!

This place is magical. Like Lord of The Rings. Lovely cottages, pool terrace, stunning mood lighting at night, beautiful oryx everywhere, and a herd of excited zebras passing through the village in the middle of the night. And of course the most lovely staff and people. Recommended.

The hotel is made up of several chalets around the main building which houses the restaurant, bar and extensive souvenir shop. The arid landscape is quite spectacular with excellent views of the sunsets from a nearby koppie. The accommodations were very good on all counts. The buffet food and service for dinners and breakfasts was excellent. The hotel staff were extremely courteous, friendly and helpful. This is the closest hotel to Hobas which is the entrance gate to the Fish River Canyon National Park.

I was disappointed We were not given the room pictured. Staff were on the whole very surly, with the exception of one waiter who served at our table and was very apologetic for the lack of service up until then.

This accomodation is well situated in the middle of the desert of southern Namibia close to the Fish River Canyon. The setting is equisite with nice hiking trails set out from the lodge. The drive to the lodge already shows a beautifully varied scenery the setting at the lodge is unique. Staff is very helpful although sometimes a bit disorganized. The rooms are in specious separate huts which use the local design.

Great overnight stay - ideal for the Canyon viewpoint

Welcoming from beginning, we loved everything. The only point I was disappointed with, was when I saw the cost added to the bill for the drinks served on the hill, when we were invited to go walk and see the sunset. It was not the cost, I just felt it's not thing to do. Just include it in the price of the room.

Great stay - made welcome and well looked after
