Emanya at Etosha Game Lodge

5 star experience. Viewing spot of the water hole was nice.

Top top top ! Lieu magnifique, personnel aussi petits soins. Les repas sont très bons. La présence des animaux devant la piscine est magique. La chambre est très bien équipée et les literie excellente. En gros, on conseille vivement cet établissement.

Staff was great Pool needs maintenance

Schöne Anlage, reizendes Personal, üppiges Dinner, gutes Frühstück, Wasserloch mit vielen Tieren direkt an wunderschöner Terrasse. Nähe zu Lindquist Gate sehr gut.

Lively lodge. Modern. Very high standard. Roims very comfortable. Food very good. Lodge gas waterhole which has lots of animals at night. Close to Etosha. 30 minutes drive to park

This was probably the best stay in Namibia for us. The place was superb. The stuff excellent. Food was very good and the place was a pleasure.Not only we would recommend it, but we wold stay there again.But longer!

Very disappointed after this stay - staff let mosquitoes in our room and didn’t have a mosquito net so me and my partner were bitten numerous times after never being bitten in our two week trip to Namibia. We were served pork that was burnt on the outside and extremely undercooked on the inside resulting in food poisoning the following day. After raising our concerns with staff, no effort was made to amend this. Other accommodation in Namibia requested we have short showers to conserve water while Emanya has unnecessarily green lawns due to inappropriate sprinkler usage. Proximity to Etosha is convenient though

Initially we were abit annoyed with the insects flying all over while dining. But we know its in the middle of a forest. The place itself is newly constructed and modern, however the maintenance seemed a bit lacking. However the staff is beyond amazing. Our server Elsa was so amaazing that she made sure she remembered even the drinks and allergies of our group of 5. We celebrated our anniversary there and they were beyond excited to make a celebration possible for us. Thank you so much for that. Chalet wasn’t my style but still because of their hospitality I came to love it. Everyone else in the group loved the place already. I would encourage everyone to book this place, they make it feel like home.

Likes: The lodge has very decorative design and beautiful scenery. They even have a great watering hole that attracts zebras, giraffes, warthogs, and other animals. Dislikes: I did not like the windows on the bathroom doors that don't provide privacy, and the light shines into the bedroom and wakes the other person up. I also did not like the two gates you have to get out and open each time you enter or leave the property. There is also a set 4 course dinner menu each night, and if you don't like it, there aren't any other option around. We ended up eating snack food and drinking wine for dinner each night. And if you want to go on a guided game drive (safari), you have to book with another lodge because Emanya's truck is broken.

The setting was beautiful. We appreciated the foot spa, the great meals. The rooms were great. Keep up the great work!

The staff were exceptional and the property was spacious and quiet. Meals were good, though if you stay for more than 2 nights the menu is repeated. Some parts of the property were in need of a little upkeep and we didn’t enjoy the smoking of other guests when dining outside.

Architecture and use of space was spectacular. Service was excellent.

Excellent place to stay to visit Etosha near Namutoni. Dinner is an a la carte choice, but for vegetarians they specially prepared a different dish each evening.

Positives: The watering hole on the property attracted all sorts of wild life! Free foot massage. Lovely rooms (except for bathroom door, see below). Water running throughout property is nice. Coffee and cake midday. Cool bar. The owners were extremely helpful. Close enough to Etosha Nat'l Park to be convenient for day trips. A lovely, relaxing place. Negatives: A little too large for the number of rooms. Felt a bit more like a convention center than a quaint resort. Bathroom door was glass, so you could see into the bathroom from the bedroom, resulting in insufficient privacy. Nowhere to eat but restaurant, and food was just okay.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Food was great and internet good taking in consideration that the hotel is in the middle of nowhere. Rooms clean. The only downside was that there is no fridge there in the room and we were told that it is not allowed to drink our own wine or beer in our rooms. This was not explained on Expedia web site/confirmation. Saying this it was really a minor thing for us, but weird in an upmarket hotel.

The hotel is about 25 mins from the Etosha gate on the east side. It’s not that far and we self-drove to the park everyday. The design is different than your typical safari lodge but it is very pretty in person. The rooms are spacious and very clean. They have TV and air con but no fridge. The manager received us on check in and toured the hotel with us which was nice. They offered free foot massages too. The water hole viewpoint is one of the highlights animals come there all the time. The breakfast was good, there’s always a hot option. Lunch is very average and dinner was a 5 course set menu every night at a very high rate. I wish there was more choice on what to eat. However the manager was very accommodating in providing food for our dietary needs. There’s also complementary cake and tea every afternoon. The staff are friendly but could use some more training so they appear more confident. The pool is beautiful and nice after a long game drive though it could be cleaner. The lodge also does game drives with a guide but I done mine myself.

A luxury hotel. All services are of a five star standard.

Fantastic place with great facilities and staff. Close to Etosha plus their own watering hole and viewing area

Perfect for resting and doing nothing.There is no entertainment, exsept footmassage. Dinner they hv only 2 main meal with full meny for a price of 290 Nd+drinks. Not worth the price.

Beautiful spacious room in a lovely quaint setting. Romantic dinner and decent breakfast offered.
