Game viewing paradise
Nestled on the banks of the Otjovasandu River in the country’s north-western parts, Hobatere Lodge promises uniquely Namibian encounters. A private airstrip makes access even easier for guests with little time to spare for long distance driving. Hobatere, due to its location on the western side of Etosha National Park, is known as ‘little Etosha’. Apart from its abundance of game species it is a paradise for birdwatchers, too.
The main area and surrounding chalets are covered with thatched roofs, cooling the air with the fragrant scents of the African savannah.
Six cosy chalets (Rondawels) as well as six comfortable, adjoining rooms (bungalows) ensure a pleasant stay. The en-suite bathrooms are equipped with a shower, toilet and washbasin plus complementary toiletries. Your ‘second home in the wild’ is furnished with a desk and a coffee and tea station, and it sports a deck at the front. Hobatere Lodge is powered entirely by solar panels. Therefore the rooms have no sockets for electrical kettles. Instead, hot water flasks are provided for guests to enjoy tea or coffee with home-made biscuits in the comfort of their rooms.
At Hobatere Lodge you will become immersed in the untamed wilds of Damaraland. The whole area is a paradise for nature lovers, and the proximity of the waterhole ensures exceptionally intimate experiences with the wild creatures that frequent it. ?
Sip on a refreshing drink lounging on the veranda while just a breath away a variety of antelopes, including elands, as well as giraffes, Hartmann’s zebras and occasionally elephants and big cats such as lions quench their thirst.
