Frans Indongo Lodge is located northeast of Otjiwarongo and northwest of Waterberg Mountain in Namibia. The lodge is ideally suited as a stopover from Windhoek to Etosha, the far north, to Bushman land or the Caprivi. The Lodge is close to the tar road but nevertheless in the midst of the African bush savannah.
The lodge has 2 double rooms, 2 family units and 8 generously proportioned chalets. All the rooms have their own bathroom and air-conditioning.
In the main public areas you can find a restaurant, bar, pool, wooden terrace and a deck for game viewing.
Activities offered are two-hour game drives in open off-road vehicles and for those who like exploring the wild on foot; there are three walking trails to choose from. The main attraction is the sprinted training for cheetahs run by the Cheetah conservation fund and restaurant for vultures established by the rare and endangered species trust to protect cape vultures in Namibia, a colony of which can be seen on the cliffs of the Waterberg Mountains. Excursions to the Waterberg on the eastern cliffs of “Water Mountain” can be arranged with the lodge. All activities are at an additional cost.
The plateau on the table mountain is a designated nature reserve. Ovaherero cultural centre is situated on a farm called Hamakari east of the Waterberg; it is an historical site and is now a cultural and tourism centre.

Frans Indongo Lodge exudes the sense for life of northern Namibia’s people in a most charming way. The complex is modelled on traditional Ovambo homesteads: palisades of tall pointed stakes embrace the lodge and convey a feeling of the warmth and security of home right in the middle of the African bush. Inside the complex a palisade separates the restaurant and swimming pool area from the guest chalets and thereby provides more privacy. A variety of beautiful building materials like natural stone, wood and reed were used for the houses. Items of daily use in Ovambo – earthen pots, voluminous storage baskets or original wooden figures – serve as decoration to emphasise the African theme, and lend a very special charm to the lodge.

All the rooms have their own bathroom, air-conditioner, fridge, hairdryer, telephone, and an electric kettle for tea and coffee.
