Gondwana Collection

Gondwana Collection

Please share this page

Gondwana Collection Namibia brings together more than 20 destinations across the country. Founded in 1995, the group has grown from a conservation-focused project into one of Namibia’s best-known hospitality collections. Its properties range from comfortable lodges and tented camps to self-catering stays, campsites and private retreats.

Gondwana Collection Namibia: lodges, camps and distinctive stays

The collection makes it possible to connect several regions within one itinerary. You can stay near Etosha, cross the Namib and Kalahari landscapes, explore southern Namibia or slow down beside the rivers of the north-east. Each property has its own setting and character, while practical comforts make it easier to travel between Namibia’s remote highlights.

Where to stay with Gondwana Collection Namibia

Travel 2 Namibia’s selection below covers key routes throughout the country. Therefore, you can compare different regions and accommodation styles before deciding which stays fit your journey.

Southern Namibia and the Fish River Canyon

Canyon Village and Canyon Roadhouse provide convenient bases for exploring the Fish River Canyon area. Farther west, Desert Horse Inn and Eagles Nest Chalets work well on routes between Lüderitz and the Namib. Kalahari Anib Lodge and Kalahari Farmhouse introduce the red dunes, open spaces and quieter pace of southern Namibia.

The Namib Desert and central-west

Namib Desert Lodge, The Desert Grace and Desert Whisper place travellers close to the dramatic scenery of the Namib. Meanwhile, Damara Mopane Lodge and Palmwag Lodge suit routes through Damaraland and north-western Namibia. These areas combine desert landscapes, geological landmarks and opportunities to learn about local culture and wildlife.

Etosha and northern Namibia

Etosha Safari Camp is positioned near the park’s southern entrance, while Etosha King Nehale offers access from the north. Both can be included before or after a wildlife-focused stay elsewhere in the country. Omarunga Epupa-Falls Camp extends the journey to the Kunene River and the palm-lined landscape around Epupa Falls.

River stays in north-eastern Namibia

Hakusembe River Lodge, Namushasha River Lodge, Namushasha River Villa, Chobe River Camp and Zambezi Mubala Camp and Zambezi Mubala Lodge offer a different side of Namibia. Here, river views, birdlife, boat activities and seasonal floodplains replace the desert scenery found farther south. These stays can form part of a longer route through the Zambezi Region.

Accommodation for different travel styles

The collection includes classic lodge rooms, safari tents, campsites, self-catering options and secluded stays designed for two. As a result, it can suit couples, families, independent travellers and guests planning a special occasion. The listings below show each property’s current overview and starting price.

Responsible tourism and conservation

Sustainability has shaped Gondwana’s approach since its beginning. Tourism supports conservation areas, while the properties use measures such as solar energy, water treatment, responsible waste management and resource-efficient operations. Gondwana also works with conservancies and communities in several parts of Namibia.

A stay within Gondwana Collection Namibia can therefore support more than an overnight visit. However, sustainability practices vary between properties, so travellers who need specific information should ask before booking. We can help confirm the facilities and initiatives relevant to a chosen lodge or camp.
