Mopane Village Lodge Etosha

We were very pleased to stay at Mopane Village. The Staff are very friendly and helpful. The food was amazing!!! We honestly had a great stay at Mopane Village and would stay there again in the future. Thank you.

We were warmly welcomed, all staff was friendly. The individual rooms (tents) were clean and big. A negative point was that the attachment of the blinds covering the windows did not work. This resulted in some wind entering the room at night and (loud) noise. However, we liked the buffets and the surrounding.

Their hospitality is the beset. We enjoyed staying in the mopane village lodge. Safari tent was clean and convenient and place was very quiet. And lodge is not far from the etosha national park. Thank you for all staffs who supported us.

This tented accommodation provides an authentic African bush experience. The hosts were very welcoming, friendly, kind and knowledgeable, and the camp is in a prime location near to Etosha National Park. The tented rooms are large, comfortable and have an en suite bathroom. There is a pool for cooling off and an outdoor elevated viewing platform for evening drinks and watching the sun set. The meals are delicious, and the staff were friendly and meticulous in their care of us during our stay there. We loved it, thank you!

We were booked into this lodge by our tour operator. The lodge is in need of maintenance especially the toilets and curtains. The staff are friendly and accommodating. Please be aware that the lodge only provides hot water during the day, which is when you are usually in the game park. When you return at the end of the day, the water is Luke warm and only enough for one shower. There is no means of hot water in the mornings and a huge problem in the cold mornings in the winter months.( we stayed there in July 2023) There is also no heating provided in the rooms. The rooms were also not cleaned/made up during our stay.

Good budget option to visit Etosha, especially if you don’t require all bells and whistles from the larger & more commercial lodges. A little bit further from the entrance gate to Etosha, but still only a 15 min drive on a tarmac road. Decent restaurant on site, although it’s just whatever the chef made as choice.

The place is not too bad however, it requires maintenance. The tented camp in which I slept is very much exposed to the cold weather. There is an opening that needs to be fixed. In addition, customer care is not so good. Our visit was during very cold days (-1 degrees celcius) but only twice when the water was warmed out of the 4 days of staying there. In addition, the rooms were not cleaned the whole period of staying there, despite the promise that was made to clean it after 2 days.

Please dont make a booking through booking apps. Just give them a call directly for a quote. It is a mistake we did. Very Friendly staff. The chefs can whip up vegan food in a jiffy and is well worth it. Had a great stay. Highly recommend

We had a very lovely and supportive stay in Mopane. Everyone took really good care of us, the room was very big, comfortable and clean and the food was very good. Our drive to Etosha was just 10 km. We really enjoyed our stay. Highly recommended!
