A great place to stop over near the Fish River Canyon. After a visit to the Canyon we arrived dusty and hot over a bumpy gravel road. This was soon rectified with a cold shower and a colder beer. The sunset over the desert was stunning and the buffet diner laid on was more than adequate. The rooms are by... More

The stay, the food and atmosphere were perfect. There was an incident with one of the staff members, that was very tasteless, she was the manager at that time. After the trip we contacted their head-office, and things was sorted out. Otherwise, its the perfect place to stay.

We have stayed at this lodge twice now, and once at the nearby Canon Lodge (part of the same Gondwana collection properties). Our stays tend to come towards the end of a camping holiday so perhaps the sense of adulation contains some inherent bias - aircon, a clean pool, and great food and service. The rooms are relatively spartan but... More

We only stayed at Canon Village for 1 night, but wish we could have stayed for 2. We arrived early, but early check in wasn't a problem. Throughout our stay we were looked after by Gwendoline, who was happy, friendly, helpful and very well informed about the area, routes, petrol etc. She sent us out to see the canyon and... More

after a night at Auob lodge, oh what a relief to see Canon village, this was definitely the best place/room that we saw in Namibia (remember I was not on a luxurious tour, so my feeling with most of the rooms were that they were very US motel 6 type of standards) Canon village was just beautiful, everything was perfect...

I loved my stay at Canyon Village Lodge. It is situated in a spectacular setting under giant granite outcroppings. Rocks and boulders are incorporated into the interior decoration of the restaurant/bar/reception area. The rooms are big, clean and nicely decorated. Rooms and restaurant have paintings by Namibian Fine Arts students. Food was good, like all food we had in Namibia.... More

The area around the Fish River Canyon is a very beautiful part of Namibia, with wide open spaces, big sky, and peace and quiet aplenty. I stayed at the Canon Village for two nights, and enjoyed every minute of it. If you want to unwind, see the canyon, go for a few walks and just experience the area, then this... More
