Etusis Lodge
Overview
Set on a stunning 21,000-hectare private reserve, Etusis Game Reserve offers an unforgettable escape into the heart of Namibia's wilderness.
With exceptional service and a variety of activities such as walking trails, scenic drives, and horse-riding, guests can immerse themselves in nature while encountering abundant desert wildlife.
Accommodation at Etusis caters to every traveler’s style. Seven luxury, air-conditioned bungalows are tucked around the main lodge, offering privacy and comfort in a serene farm setting. For those seeking a more adventurous experience, five Meru-style tents evoke the spirit of an "Out of Africa" safari, offering a rustic yet refined stay.
Families or groups can enjoy the self-catering farmhouse, perfect for up to seven guests, where farm animals add to the charm. For those craving solitude, five campsites located 20 km from the main lodge provide a peaceful, immersive wilderness experience.
Etusis is also home to the Etusis Foundation, dedicated to protecting the endangered Hartmann’s Mountain Zebra, making your stay not just a retreat but a contribution to vital conservation efforts.
