An excellent selection of Cape wines can be ordered before and after your evening meal. A light mid-day meal and lunch packs need to be booked in advance. Relax on the terrace or at the swimming pool to enjoy those spectacular Namibian sunsets. There is also a 'boma', where you can sit around a campfire and enjoy the lodge's traditional hospitality.

A very good alternative to the lodges inside Etosha. Beautiful campsite (but just 4 sites) and dinner room.

Toshari Lodge was o.k. In German: Aufgrund des Brandes des Restaurants im Februar diesen Jahres musste auf der Lodge viel improvisiert werden, was aber sehr gut gelang.

Fantastic experience. The Staff were friendly and helpful. The accommodation was lovely and so was the evening meal and entertainment. The perfect place to stay just outside Etosha.

Fantastic! Very nice rooms, great service. Loved the dinner outside with the fires blazing keeping you warm and such a lovely atmosphere. Very good price for such quality. We would go back again.

We had a great time with excellent game drives both days. The room a little disappointing as you would not use the word `luxury` to describe it, but we spent so little time in there it didn`t matter. Grounds, pool, food, staff all excellent. Again would highly recommend

Lovegrove, Tom

Perfectly nice place to stay after a day in Etosha. Friendly service, food less good than other places we stayed. Nice and close to Etosha which we decided to revisit the next day to explore the west side of the park before heading off to Grootberg. That day was our best day on Safari by far!!
