Little Ongava is a luxurious thatched lodge built on the crest of a hill with wonderful views. The lodge is in the Ongava Game Reserve, a private 30,000-hectare conservation area that lies on the southern boundary of Namibia's flagship Etosha National Park, and offers a comprehensive wildlife experience.

Little Ongava boasts both black and white rhinos in its private reserve as well as a healthy predator population, particularly lions. There are only three suites here, each with a private plunge rim-flow pool that leads directly off your spacious bedroom through glass doors and looks out onto the plains below. This is the ideal lodge for couples or small families who want to reserve the entire property on an exclusive-use basis.

The waterhole in front of the lodge attracts many animals - especially in the winter dry season from about June to October - and the birdlife, even within the camp, is spectacular. A professional guide accompanies you on day and night drives through the Ongava Reserve as well as in neighbouring Etosha, and you can also enjoy guided nature walks, perhaps being lucky enough to come across a rhino during your hike!

Rooms

Luxury Suite

Each incredibly spacious thatched suite has a large bedroom and a separate lounge area, both with floor-to-ceiling glass doors that lead onto a private deck with its rim-flow plunge pool and a sala - ideal for watching passing animals and for keeping an eye on the teeming waterhole. The stylish en suite bathroom also offers incredible views, particularly from the bathtub and outdoor shower.

Facilities

The main lodge area at Little Ongava is made from stone, thatch and canvas and contains a cosy lounge with an enormous stone fireplace as well as the dining area. Both rooms lead onto the deck overlooking the camp's waterhole that regularly attracts all kinds of game as well as providing what seem to be never-ending vistas of the Namibian landscape.

Dining

Meals at Little Ongava are taken under thatch in the cosy lounge and dining area or out on the deck under the African night sky while you watch animals come to drink at the floodlit waterhole.
