Huab Lodge, Four times winner in Namibia 's Best Lodge category, is situated on the ephemeral Huab River in dramatic mountain scenery bordering Damaraland.

Huab Lodge consists of eight stone and thatch bungalows that can accommodate a maximum of 16 guests. Meals are enjoyed with the hosts at the family table, where in the Lodge's friendly atmosphere guests can make friends and exchange opinions and learn more about the country. In Huab Lodge tradition a variety of less well-known South Africa wines are presented ceremoniously each evening for guests to appreciate and enjoy.

The spacious bungalows have a large private patio and are tastefully and practically furnished. They all include a separate en-suite toilet, two hand-wash basins and mirrors and even the shower has a view. The airy room with two king size beds has large windows giving lots of light and a view across the Huab. Tea and coffee making facilities are set out. Mosquito nets, a ceiling fan, and a torch as well as biologically degradable soaps and shampoo is provided. 24 hours 220 volt power comes from the silent solar energy plant concealed on the hill. The chemically untreated water has a neutral pH value.

There is a bungalow for physically disabled guests with limited facilities.

Use of the swimming pool with its decorative island is recommended, and you can also enjoy a wallow in the thermal spring, which contains soothing and healing minerals and has a neutral pH value and NO sulphur. The temperature fluctuates around 37 to 39 degrees Centigrade and the pool is shaded by an attractive thatch roof that still enables stargazing. There is a cool plunge-pool next to the hot wallow. A secluded birdbath makes this a prime spot for birders.

If the stresses of life leave you in need of rejuvenating, the aromatherapist, who trained in South Africa, offers reflexology and aromatherapy massages in the privacy of the bungalow or at the thermal spring. This additional offer has proved extremely popular since its inclusion in the array of activities and can be another reason for wanting to stay longer.
