With a tranquil, convenient location at the south east corner of the town centre, the Namib Guesthouse is a homely Swakopmund base. There are seven double rooms and one family suite, all with flat screen television, free Wifi connectivity and an en-suite bathroom with shower. The style is a soothing, elegant mixture of white linen, laminate flooring and subtle, pastel coloured wallpaper, meaning the rooms always appear light and airy. This contemporary aesthetic is maintained in the relaxed public areas, including a peaceful courtyard garden and spacious breakfast room, where English or continental breakfasts are served each morning.

The guesthouse owners are extremely helpful in booking restaurants and excursions during your stay, and they are also committed to eco-tourism, with recycling, composting and solar powered hot water all carried out enthusiastically. The Namib Guesthouse has an understated, effortless touch of class that makes it one the most interesting accommodations in Swakopmund.
