Onguma The Fort

On the eastern edge and with close access to the Etosha National Park is the 34,000ha private Onguma Game Reserve. One of five lodges on the reserve and entirely unique, Onguma The Fort features massive raw walls, stone-cladded features and a large tower with views over the Namibian Pans.

The lodge overlooks a waterhole, an excellent vantage from which to view some of the approximately 30 species of game and more than 300 bird species recorded in the area. In addition to onsite activities, the spectacular wildlife experience of Etosha National Park, with four of the Big 5, is practically on your doorstep.

The décor is African with a palpable Moroccan influence and an understated but luxurious feel. There are Mini Suites and a Honeymoon Suite that are adjacent to the Main Fort and spaced at 50m apart for privacy. All feature an air cooling system, en-suite bathroom with indoor and outdoor shower, and a wooden deck with sun loungers and a view. The Sultan Suite is within the Main Tower of the fort, featuring a double bedroom, full en-suite bathroom, lounge area and private deck with elevated views.
