Waterberg Plateau Lodge

Waterberg Plateau Lodge stands on a high terrace directly below the enormous, vividly red sandstone rocks of the Waterberg Plateau. There are eight stone chalets, all offering sweeping views onto the Kalahari below and a sense of comfort and tranquillity.

Each of the twin-bedded chalets has a shower/WC, a lounge area and a fireplace for chilly winter evenings. The shady terrace in front of your chalet boasts a plunge pool which you will find wonderfully refreshing during the hot summer months. The fresh spring water also attracts birds and klipspringer (small antelope) — early in the morning you can watch them while still in bed.

Chalets are supplied with flasks of hot water for making tea or coffee whenever you wish. Meals are served in the lovely dining area on the top of a hill, which has open sides to make the most of the views. There is a main swimming pool as well, and guests can park their cars next to their rooms.
