A gemsbuck - one of Etosha's specialities

 

ETOSHA AOBA LODGE

Etosha Aoba Lodge is located on the Namutoni side of the Etosha National Park, Namibia's premier game-viewing destination. It is tucked away in a tranquil setting amidst tall Tamboti trees and savanna bushveld.


The comfortable chalets

The lodge consists of ten well-appointed thatched cottages and a large open plan common area, all connected by gravel paths. Each cottage has electricity, en suite facilities and a private furnished veranda. Décor is basic but tasteful, in a neutral color theme using indigenous materials wherever possible.




The spacious open-plan dining room


Delicious and satisfying meals are taken in the main lodge overlooking a small waterhole. The chef uses home grown and local produce as inspiration for her Euro-Namibian fare. Venison from the reserve is often found on the menu.

Etosha Aoba Lodge is a wonderful base for the self-drive visitor to Namibia who wants to explore Etosha National Park under their own steam. A mere 6 miles from Von Lindequist Gate, Aoba is perfectly located for excursions into the eastern and northern sections of the park. In addition, Aoba offers its guests a number of walking trails and hides on its own private reserve, as well as a number of optional activities: the eclectic game viewing vehicle is a highlight in itself, and "sundowners" at a point on the reserve overlooking the spectacular Fisher's Pan are one of the real treats at Aoba.



We think that Aoba, with its friendly, intimate atmosphere and choice location, is the pick of the lodges on the eastern side of the Etosha National Park.
