Accommodation Description

Huge stone and thatch chalets squat in the African bush and the hospitality at Kavita Lion Lodge is as welcoming as their beds.

Located on a private game ranch on the south-western corner of Etosha, the lodge offers a complete experience of Namibia: remote wilderness, excellent game viewing and birding; passionate conservation and fascinating cultural interactions.

Sleeping just 16 people, the mood is intimate and your hosts, Uwe and Tammy are an affable pair who are as passionate about nature as they are about your comfort. The lodge has a swimming pool and large thatched lapa restaurant as well as a bar and a game viewing hide that overlooks a waterhole.
