Stay at the “Heaven’s Gate” cottage. Amazing!!
This is a wonderful property and hotel. We stayed on top of the plateau in an incredible cottage called “Heaven’s Gate”. It is a bit of a trek to get to and from but worth every bit of the effort. Has a lovely wood fire heated spa, total seclusion, and incredible outlook. There is also a smaller restaurant on top of the plateau which we ate at each night. The hotel at ground level is also terrific.

Must visit in Namibia
This was by far my favourite place we stayed in Namibia. The rooms, location and food were all spectacular and the value for money was great, I found the quality to be better than other places we stayed that were double the price. I would recommend people don't make the same mistake we made and stay more than 1 night! I would also recommend requesting to book dinner on top of the cliff on one occasion.

Great staff. Upgraded our rooms to let our family spread out. Walk to eagles nest is worth it, but be careful of drinking too much because you have to walk down again after dark. Beautiful place with great hosts.

Vingerklip Lodge is a unique, memorable and eclectic place to visit. The views from the chalets are some of the best you will see in Africa, food is of a good standard but the property is elevated by the friendliness and flexibility of the staff. The assistance given to my 81 year old mother was appreciated. Even through very unfit, the climb up the metal staircase to the plateau above the property was a great experience. We were concerned about the lack of air conditioning between 4.00am and 10.00am after 37c days however did not find this a issue. The property does need some updating in the rooms but as covid has hit small business hard, its difficult to criticise, as none were deal breakers. Its also not a good property for people with mobility difficulty as there are many steep slopes and stairs within the hotel property. Overall, I would definitely highly recommend Vingerklip Lodge to anyone travelling in the area for the service, views and experience. After a few trips to Namibia, it may now be my favourite lodge.

Top Namibia experience - but windows need screens
The environment here is surreal! What a gorgeous stay! Adorable (large) chalet, with own patio, looking onto watering hole! They claimed there weren't many animals but we saw at least 1 giraffe and some others. Dinner at Eagles Nest was just incredible! But even if you can't get a table (seats 20), you can walk up there (and you must) for sunset, a drink, and the view. One of our favorite Namibia experiences. Great little pool, wonderful cake (available with complimentary tea and coffee all day). Wifi only in reception area. BUT - no screens on windows so didn't want to leave them open. Room has ac but working on being off grid so solar can't run it yet. Fan and open windows would've been fine. But power went out in whole place for at least 4 hours in the middle of the night, so no fan either. Way too hot to sleep.

Top of the mountain
When I booked the room I didn't realise the room was the one on the top of the hill. It was magic! The view, the room decor, the service at dinner and breakfast, the food, the staff.

Jaw Dropping
I stayed here en route to the Skeleton Coast. I picked it at random from the offers in the area which were fairly limited. As it turned out I made an incredibly lucky choice. The location might seem a little odd initially - about 15km down a gravel road from the C39. It's actually incredible - being a little past the Ugab Terrace which is (I learned) something of an attraction of itself. The lodge sits at the base of a sandstone massif (?) in a broad, fairly flat valley with some very dramatic views. The views alone were worth the trip. My room was effectively half a thatched bungalow. Super comfortable bed and all very clean and private. There was a nice outside deck area where you can sit and watch the sunrise and sunset over the valley. The main lodge has an excellent bar and restaurant. I did only visit the restaurant for breakfast which was very good. For dinner I visited the Eagle's Nest restaurant which is on top of the massif. The views were simply increible, enhanced by a free lightning show after sunset. I was incredibly impressed with Vingerklip. I'd been in Etosha for 3 days where you are effectively car bound. It was nice to go for a short walk around the massif and get back on my feet. I understand there are game on the property although I only saw the one giraffe well off in the distance. There were plenty of antelope spoor on my walk. Staff were great. Location is great. Value for money is incredible. I hope to go back, that's the best I can say.
