Stay at Kalahari Anib Lodge, Southern Kalahari
Anib is an ideal stop between Windhoek and the Canyon. It is simple, pretty and your hosts are friendly and welcoming.
Kalahari Anib Lodge, Southern Kalahari, Namibia
Anib Lodge is situated on a large farm about 30km outside the tiny town of Mariental. On the edge of the Kalahari the farm encompasses vegetated dunes and expansive yellow plains. There are a number of pretty walking trails around the farm which guests can undertake on their own. Should you ever get lost (which is very unlikely) you simply look for the tin windmill and head for it as the lodge is underneath it!
The lodge has 53 rooms with private verandahs situated around the courtyard, these rooms are often used by group tours. For those travelling privately, there are nine sunny rooms slightly set apart, offering views of the savannah scenery. Each room has double or twin bed, simple Germanic furniture and spotless en-suite bathrooms. Outside there is a pool, small green lawn and profusion of colourful and fragrant flowers. Anib is a perfect spot for relaxing, however the more active can go rambling, mountain biking or on farm and nature drives.

Suggested Kalahari Anib Lodge itinerary
Southern Namibia self-drive explorer
This is an adventurous self-drive trip around Namibia's southern highlights. The trip begins with a night in Windhoek where you can relax after your international flight and perhaps enjoy a meal out at one of the city's excellent restaurants. After a good night's sleep you set off for the Fish River Canyon in Namibia's deep south. The Fish River Canyon receives few visitors and you can often sit at the top of the gorge and enjoy the spectacular views to yourself. From here you head west to explore the ghost towns of Kolmanskop and wild horses at Aus. After a night in a lodge perched on a granite outcrop in the desert you head north to Namibia's most famous sight, the dunes at Sossusvlei. From your base at a small guest farm you can climb a dune at Sossusvlei, explore the Sesriem Canyon and enjoy stunning sunsets over the desert. A leisurely drive through mountain scenery takes you out of the desert and high up into the Naukluft Mountains. Here you'll stay at Corona, one of our most popular guest farms and enjoy gentle hikes in the fresh mountain air. A final drive brings you back to Windhoek where you will catch your international flight back to the UK.

Where possible, we like to offer a range of accommodation for each stop of your trip, chosen by our specialists as some of their favourite places to stay. To help you make the right choice, we give each property a rating based on its facilities and service, but we also look for hotels with distinct character or a location that can’t be bettered.
Bagatelle Kalahari Game Ranch
Bagatelle Dune Lodge is located just a couple of hours drive from Windhoek, which makes for an ideal stop-over en route to the Naukluft Park or south to the Fish River Canyon.
Kalahari Farmhouse
The Kalahari Farmhouse is a simple property on the outskirts of the village of Stampriet. Formerly the home of the old-established Van der Wath family, the farmhouse has a rural atmosphere which provides a contrast to many of Namibia's lodges.
