Vogelstrausskluft Lodge wowed me from the moment I arrived. The staff was incredibly friendly and flexible - they created a custom day trip into Fish River Canyon that I will never forget. The food was brilliant and the lodge was gorgeous. It is an incredibly romantic place to go and get away from crowds. I would highly recommend this to... More

We booked the Fish River Canyon Experience and stayed here for two nights. The rooms and lodge itself are well appointed and decorated. Service was excellent, despite being the only guests in the lodge on our first night, and the managers Pieter and Suzanne made us feel right at home. The most impressive thing about this lodge is, by far,... More

Superb and luxurious lodge with probably the best thatched main lounge/bar/dining area/library of any lodge in southern Africa! Lovely pool deck overlooking small cliffs - the rooms are luxuriously fitted with en-suites and airconditioning. The lodge is on 26000 hectares and the first 50miles/81 kms, YES 50 MILES! of the Fish River Canyon belongs to the lodge. We went on... More

We had a two nights here at a most awe inspiring special desert treat. It is situated in a very scenic area and we partook in activities with twilight view over the Canyon and walk down the canyon. The hosts are delightful people

We stayed here during our honeymoon in Namibia. We had only booked high-end accommodation and Vogels was the best lodge at which we stayed. It was also very reasonably priced compared to its peers and so was the best value acommodation too. We were greeted with a warm welcome and upgraded to a suite as we were honeymooners. Upon entering... More

If you want to go in the canyon, this seems to be your only option to stay. The food however is terrible: they add suger to all dishes! We had a very nice room but no hot water, even when the boiler was supposed to be fixed. It was freezing cold when we stayed and the heating only worked 2-3... More
