Sielerus.

Heerlik, soos voorheen. Dalk kan net iewers aangebring word dat die sterrenag beter is sonder ligte wat deurentyd skyn van die bure? Mense is soms onbewus hiervan, veral as hulle uit stedelike omgewings kom!

Delicious, as before. Maybe it can just be mentioned somewhere that the starry night is better without lights constantly shining from the neighbors? People are sometimes unaware of this, especially if they come from urban environments!

In die woestyn!

Pragtige ligging en omgewing! Skoon linne en slaapgeriewe! Ons was bewus van die huurdiens van die breekware, maar was nie voorbereid gewees dat die vorige gebruikers nie regtig die verblyf wil gebruik nie. Jy moet jou eie piekniekmandjie saamneem as jy wel van die verblyf wil gebruik maak! Geen handdoeke word voorsien nie - slegte handewasseep word voorsien. Die kamers het nie 'n koffiemaakarea nie - slegs die buitekombuis, ongelukkig nie bruikbaar as daar 'n sandstorm is nie. MAAR as jy daar stop vir oornag, 'n vinnige braai en weer ry, is dit 'n ideale plek met pragtige natuurskoon!

In the desert!

Beautiful location and surroundings! Clean linen and sleeping facilities! We were aware of the crockery rental service, but were not prepared that the previous users did not really want to use the accommodation. You must take your own picnic basket with you if you do want to use the accommodation! No towels provided - bad hand washing soap provided. The rooms do not have a coffee making area - only the outdoor kitchen, unfortunately not usable if there is a sandstorm. BUT if you stop there for the night, a quick barbecue and drive again, it is an ideal place with beautiful scenery!

Beste Lorinda,
Dankie vir die terugvoer. Bly julle het ons pragtige ligging, omgewing, skoon linne en slaapgeriewe geniet! Ons het breekware te huur asook 'n lys waar kos voorraad bestel kan word om self voor te berei. Nie seker wat u bedoel met eie piekniekmandjie nie? Daar Word altyd vars handdoeke voorsien in elke kamer - indien daar nie was nie, moes dit ongelukkig 'n fout van die skoonmaak en bestuur personeel gewees het wat dit moes nagaan - jammer daaroor! Beste wense, Die Desert Camp Span.

Baie mooi area, meer verwag van die verblyf.

Hulle mis baie klein goedjies, soos hakkies vir handdoeke en koelplek. Hulle rekeningsdepartement is nie op standaard nie. WiFi was onbeskikbaar. Lugversorging het nie gewerk nie.

Beste Erna,
Dankie vir die terugvoer.

Daar is 'n yskas in die kombuisie op die stoep.
Tydens julle verblyf was daar 'n wêreldwye probleem met internet a.g.v. beskadigde Seacom kabels in die Rooi See - dit het ongelukkig ons WiFi ook geraak.
Ons het 'n span wat dadelik kan aandag gee as julle probleme met lugversorging ervaar en dit aanmeld by ontvangs.
Alles van die beste!

'n Reisiger se droom.

Dis die 2de keer wat ons hier tuisgaan. Vyf jaar terug was die huisies nog tente. Dis nou pragtig opgradeer. Eenhede is baie mooi skoon met 'n lieflike stort en 'n aparte toilet. Hier is soveel fotogeleenthede. 'n Fotograaf se droom. Die braaiplekkie is 'n klein bietjie op verkeerde plek geplaas veral as die Ooswind waai, want dan rook jy jouself uit, maar mens kan mos jou stoel skuif en deur toehou. Iets wat negatief was, is die "hol-gelê"-matrasse. Ons is nie swaar mense nie, maar as jy lê vou die matras weerskante om jou toe en jy kan net in daai gat lê. So asseblief vervang die matrasse sodat gaste uitgerus opstaan. Hoop ons kan volgende keer lekker slaap, want jul sien ons beslis weer.

A traveler's dream.

It's the 2nd time we stay here. Five years ago the houses were still tents. It's now beautifully upgraded. Units are very nice and clean with a lovely shower and a separate toilet. There are so many photo opportunities here. A photographer's dream. The braai place is placed a little bit in the wrong place, especially when the East wind blows, because then you smoke yourself out, but you can move your chair and close the door. Something that was negative is the "hollow-laid" mattresses. We are not heavy people, but when you lie down the mattress folds around you on both sides and you can only lie in that hole. So please replace the mattresses so guests wake up rested. Hope we can sleep well next time, because you will definitely see us again.

Baie dankie vir die terugvoer. Ons is baie bly om te hoor dat julle van ons opgradering hou asook die pragtige fotogeleenthede!
Die braaiplekke is eintlik perfek vir normale weer en lugvloei - die oos-wind waai bitter min en is maar dwars om dinge omver te gooi - jammer vir die ongerief. Ons neem ook die matras kwessie op met ons verskaffers.
Hoop om jul binnekort weer te verwelkom!

Pragtige ligging en uitsigte.

Ons het twee nagte by Desert Camp oorgeslaap. Ons moes ongelukkig twee huisies bespreek en betaal vir 'n gesin van vier, wat die verblyf baie duur gemaak het. Maar dit was steeds goedkoper as die alternatief. Die kamp is pragtig, die huisies skoon en ruim, en die badkamers modern. Daar is 'n swembad en gedeelde kuier-area. Ons het braaipakke met vleis en bykosse vir aandete bestel, wat baie gerieflik was. Die omgewing rondom die kamp is stil en rustig, met die mooiste uitsigte. Sterk aan te beveel.

Beautiful location and views.

We spent two nights at Desert Camp. Unfortunately we had to book and pay for two cottages for a family of four, which made the stay very expensive. But it was still cheaper than the alternative. The camp is beautiful, the cottages clean and spacious, and the bathrooms modern. There is a swimming pool and shared lounge area. We ordered barbecue packs with meat and side dishes for dinner, which was very convenient. The environment around the camp is quiet and peaceful, with the most beautiful views. Highly recommend.

Beste Freddie,

Baie dankie vir die aanbeveling en wonderlike terugvoer! Ek is baie bly om te hoor dat julle ons skoon huisies, swembad, die mooi uitsigte asook die gerief van die kosbestellings vir braai geniet het!

Die slaapbank wat in die eenhede by Desert Camp is sal net té ongemaklik wees vir tieners van 13 tot 15 jaar met die lengte asook die matras se dikte in ag genome. Dis hoekom ons dit beperk tot klein kinders onder 12 jaar wat kan deel met ouers.

Ons sien uit daarna om julle terug te verwelkom met jul volgende kuiertjie in Namibië!

Oulike plek, maar kort aandag aan detail om selfsorg te vergemaklik.

Mooi plek, een met die natuur, nuut oorgedoen. Daar was net 'n paar klein goedjies wat die ervaring minder aangenaam gemaak het. Proppe vir wasbakke was weg, eetgerei het goed gekort, die klein stofie het een plaat nie gewerk nie, te min stoele. Alhoewel ons geboek het vir twee kinders ekstra, was daar nie beddegoed vir hulle gewees nie. Anders as dit, was dit steeds 'n baie mooi plek om te oornag en 'n ervaring om die natuur so te beleef.

Cute place, but lacks attention to detail to facilitate self-catering.

Beautiful place, one with nature, newly redone. There were just a few little things that made the experience less enjoyable. Plugs for sinks were gone, cutlery was lacking, the small duster didn't work, one plate didn't work, too few chairs. Although we booked for two extra children, there was no bedding for them. Other than that, it was still a very nice place to spend the night and an experience to experience nature like this.

Beste Petri,
Baie dankie vir die terugvoer. Ons is bly om te hoor dat julle van mooi Desert Camp gehou het. Ongelukkig het ons besprekingskantoor nie die kinders raakgesien op die bespreking nie en het dit toe nie so oorgedra op ons stelsel nie, so ons ontvangs het nie geweet om ekstra beddegoed in die kamer te sit nie. Baie jammer daaroor! Net so jammer dat daar ander dinge fout gegaan het, gaste steel die proppe, maar ons het nou punte bygelas wat ons vloer bestuurde daagliks moet nagaan soos die proppe en dat al die plate op die stofies werk.
