With just six rooms, you’ll be lucky to get a booking at Villa Violet - one of the top rated B&B guesthouses in Windhoek, Namibia’s capital.
Villa Violet is a smart and attractive guesthouse tucked away in a quiet neighborhood of northern Windhoek and is a great place to start or end your safari or self-drive holiday in Namibia. You will easily find Villa Violet coming from the airport; it is close to the central areas of Windhoek.
The rooms at Villa Violet open onto small patios making an ideal spot to relax and read a book or have a cup of tea while you chat with Ben and Heidi. Rinse your travel-weary bones in the swimming pool or retreat to your air conditioned room with a book from the small library.
The décor as simple, elegant and modern with hotel-like amenities including wireless internet, climate control, tea/coffee, personal safe, honesty bar and hair dryers.
If you are looking for a warm welcome, genuine hospitality, convenience and comfort, we cannot recommend Villa Violet highly enough: we have yet to have an unhappy customer and, so long as Ben and Heidi are at the helm, we doubt we ever will.

Die Mushara Lodge liegt nur 8 Kilometer vom Von Lindequist Gate entfernt am östlichen Rand des Estosha-Nationalparks und ist ideal für die unabhängigen Reisenden, die den Park besuchen. Unsere Lodge besteht aus zehn geräumigen Chalets, einer Familieneinheit, zwei Einzelzimmern und einem Dreibettzimmer.
Der Name Mushara leitet sich von dem Purpur-Pod-Terminalia-Baum ab, der im Überfluss auf dem Gelände der Lodge und in der Umgebung wächst. Der reetgedeckte öffentliche Bereich besteht aus einer kleinen Bibliothek mit einer Auswahl guter Bücher, einer Bar mit einem ausgedehnten Weinkeller, einem luftigen Aufenthaltsraum mit einem einladenden Kamin für Winterabende, einem Essbereich und einem gut bestückten Souvenirladen. Große Aufmerksamkeit wurde der eleganten und frischen Einrichtung gewidmet - eine Mischung aus traditionellen afrikanischen und modernen Kunstwerken in Kombination mit Originalgemälden.

Captivated by the river and the people whose history and lives are intertwined with it, Tino and Karin Punzul spent the next four years turning their dream of a lodge in the Kavango region into a reality. Working with local craftsman, they build the lodge from the ground up. The traditional owners of the land and the community have shared in the process and will share in the future of the lodge’s proceeds. As owners and your hosts at River Dance, Tino and Karin share their passion for the magic of the river, their knowledge of the bush, and the spirit of generosity, an essential part of life in Namibia, with their guests. Their passion for River Dance is contagious, and their years of hard work and waiting for their dream to come true means that you don’t have to. River Dance is yours to experience today!

Not only is Okonjima a luxury lodge, but it is also home to The AfriCat Foundation, a non-profit organisation, committed to long-term conservation of Namibia's large carnivores, especially cheetahs and leopards. A visit to Okonjima will give you an opportunity to witness some of AfriCat's work. The NEW, Plains Camp design honours the Okonjima cattle-farming history. In the early 1920’s, Okonjima became a cattle farm and was bought by Val (VJ) & Rose Hanssen in 1970. They were well-established Brahman breeders and continued to farm cattle until the need for solutions to increasing livestock losses became pertinent and post-independence interest in Namibia as a tourist destination, escalated. In 1993, the herds of Brahman and Jersey cattle were sold, changing the face of Okonjima as well as that of Carnivore Conservation! STANDARD ROOMS: Each of the 14 Standard Rooms enjoy a view across the Okonjima grass plains! VIEW ROOMS: The 10 exclusive and spacious View Rooms, all have a view across the Okonjima grass plains! The OKONJIMA activities include tracking rehabilitated carnivores on foot; visiting the AfriCat Carnivore Care & Information Centre; tracking leopards from a game–viewing vehicle. OKONJIMA also offers a guided Bushman Trail. Birding and Game drives are offered on request and if guests stay longer than 2 days.
