Stayed for one night as part of a road trip. Simply a wonderful place - everything is top notch: the design and architecture of the build, the interiors, the exemplary service, the food, the vistas.... it's all so relaxing and energising at the same time. Sunset on the rooftop bar, dining by the fire, the very comfortable rooms - I cannot recommend it highly enough. Extra thanks to the wonder staff - excellent levels of personalised service. And the morning elephant drive was magnificent. Loved it all :)

Special stay - get it on your list!

We stayed here for two nights during a Namibia Road Trip. The hotel was recommended by our travel consultant.
Camp Kipwe is located in a rocky outcrop, with the rooms nestled into the rocks. We had a standard room which was more than adequate for our needs. It was made better by the fact that we were the furthest from the main part of the lodge so it was exceptionally quiet and had lovely views from the porch. It was lovely to sit and read outside our room and watch the 'small' wildlife - geckos, lizards, birds etc.
Marius, front of house, was really helpful, and all the staff were both discreet and attentive to our needs.
We dined at the lodge and the chef produced lovely vegetarian meals for us. Service was efficient, and again, the word discreet comes to mind. The local attractions, other than organised elephant viewing, are really restricted to the local rock art site, so we used this location as our 'chill out' days. And Camp Kipwe was perfect for this. 
We would certainly recommend this accommodation and are so pleased our travel consultant suggested it for us.

Top notch accommodation

Absolutely fantastic. As seasoned travellers and lodge stayers in Africa over the years (Kenya, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, South Africa) , this is one of the best lodges we have ever stayed in. It starts with the wonderful room  with the very special outdoor bathroom. Totally private but with the desert sky as your ceiling. 

We did two great tours with Ziggy - one  geology one and trailing one elephants. He was knowledgeable and entertaining - a great mix. 

Overall a very high level of service by all the staff. Well done everyone! And obviously well trained. 

Climb up the stairs to their sundowner bar with a great view far and wide. 

Food was excellent. Even their hot food sandwiches for breakfast brought something new and elevated to the experience.

And if they could not top this, unrequested they even washed our car on the day of departure. 

Highly recommend!!!!

I want to give 6 stars!

Wonderful lighthearted staff. So nice, very good food and marvelous rooms! 
Spectacular to wake up every morning in this paradise. The evening viewpoint is a huge plus and meant a magical start to every evening. In the morning, with Ziggy at our side, we were well prepared to explore the world of the elephants. 

Overall: extraordinary.

Closest to paradise I have ever been!

We stayed for just one night and wished it had been longer.  We arrived, dusty, sweaty and hot after a long drive and sightseeing at the petrified forest and rock carvings sites and were greeted with ice cold towels and a cold drink. We were made very welcome and shown around the amazing site (pictures do not do it justice) while our baggage was taken to our room. We loved our room, private sitting area and bathroom which was fully private but under the open sky. A drink at the bar at the top of the rocks while watching the stunning sunset was followed by one of the best dinners and wine that we have had on our holiday in Namibia. On the following morning we had a very good  early breakfast before our knowledgeable and cheerful guide took us to see desert adapted elephants, with giraffe and springbok as well as stunning views as a bonus.  Camp Kipwe were most obliging about keeping our cases until we returned from our game drive and carried them to our car. Camp Kipwe is a wonderful place!

Friendly and very comfortable

Fantastic location in the semi dessert. Tastefully decorated rooms with excellent service and facilities.  Food was great and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful.  The local guide who took us on a few excursions was very knowledgeable.  Great experience.  

Unforgettable experience 

We've stayed at many luxury lodges on our travels and Camp Kipwe rates as one of our favourites of all time. From the amazing architecture (everything is built into and around the boulders) to the sensational staff (the Kipwe celebrities: Philip, KK, George, et al) there is little to fault about Kipwe. The food was fantastic, the wine even better. The sunset bar right at the top of the boulders is just breathtaking. We stayed 3 nights and think that was perfect. Next time we visit, we will most definitely be staying at the villa - utter luxury in the heart of the desert. Mareille and her husband are wonderful managers who ensured their lodge ran like clockwork. We can't wait to get back - family and friends in tow! 

Exceptional across the board!

Exciting Area, Perfekt Buildings in a natural Style, super-nice Managemnt and Staff, verry good kitchen and cellar. Game-Drive with Elefants quasi guaranteed 😊

We stood here vore 2 nights an can recomand it absolutly! Perfect Place for 2 or 3 nights

Perfect Namibian Safari-Lodge

Wow, this place is hard to describe in words. Even pictures won't pass the amazing experience this place offers.
The architectural plan that fits perfectly its surroundings, the beautifully decorated interior spaces, the great food, friendly and helpful staff and above all -  the unique and amazing location and view - all make it one of the best places we ever visited. The close by Bushman engravings are impressive and we so some wildlife near by, including elephants, giraffes and others, but the main attraction for us was the camp itself!  

Exceptional experience

A beautiful location not far off the main road but quiet. It's close to Twyfelfontein World Heritage Site with the rock engravings and the Damara Living Museum which you pass on the way, and is a must to visit. Both easy to do on your own if you have a car. Great views from the balcony of our bungalow which was superb. Lovely food in the dining room which was in an elevated location. We went on an excellent guided nature drive with Ziggy & were fortunate to be the only two. We found two herds of elephants and a roaming bull, with breakfast on a dune with great views. Sundowners on the hill above the lodges was nice. Very good service from the staff.
