Great old west feel at Fish River Canyon
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.
Chalets around the main building.
Evening dinner on the patio.

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!

Village in the canyon rocks
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.

Perfect hotel near Fish River Canyon park entrance
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.

Wouldn't return
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.

perfect desert lodge
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.

Memorable expierience
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.
