Hotel Pantai di Swakopmund

All of the times I went to Namibia, I spent at least one night there and when I come back I feel at home although I am more than 10 000 km from home. Once my emotional bond towards this hotel has been disclosed, I can tell what we like: The staff, who are always kind and responsive. Before departure, I bothered the receptionist Maike with several request, and I always got enduring and useful answers. Similarly for the waiters, who are kind and professional. The restaurant, which serves very good food, both fish and meat, and also a rich and various breakfast. That particolar flavour that only an original-colonial-style establishment more than 100 years old may have. We also enjoyed the inner garden, full of exotic plants and large trees. Last but not least, though located in a small city in the middle of the desert, the hotel offers large, comfortable rooms provided with all that is exepected from a town hotel.

We decided to book two nights at the Strand after having had a fantastic week staying at the Mokuti Etosha, which has the same owner. We had also stayed at the Strand for two nights in April last year and had a much better experience then than now. Already at the check in we were met by a sour man who seemed completely uninterested in small talk and in hearing that we were here also last year. He only scoffed at us when we asked for a room with an ocean view, which is part of the whole reason for staying at this hotel, in our view. The hotel was booked for us by the Mokuti reception so we were unaware that the price for two nights was extremely high in comparison with the standard of the hotel. The hotel is nice but absolutely not worth the requested price for two nights. We asked for a discount as returning guests who came directly from a week at another hotel by the same owner, but the sour check-in officer brushed it off. Also the hotel requested payment up front, which my husband paid. But after discussing the price between us we decided it was not worth it and asked for the manager. We said we wanted to reduce to one night only and to stay at another hotel the second night. There are other hotels nearby that seem very nice and charges 1/4 of the price. The manager wanted to make us an offer in hope to make us stay. After a long while two employees came to offer us free dinner or 10% discount. We declined as we rather would try the other option. But to get our money back for the second night became a big problem. According to the manager, it was not possible to put the money back in our card and the hotel did not have any cash available (!). They also only wanted to return the money for the two nights if we agreed to first pay for a third night. In addition they could apparently only send the money back via Swift international banking which takes at least a week for us to receive. There was absolutely zero will to find a flexible solution in order to accomodate us. The room we received was the last on the row overlooking a play ground and with a bit of ocean view on the side of the balcony. We discovered that the hotel was only a little over half filled up so it probably would have been possible to find a room with a full ocean view if they had wanted to. In the room we discovered that the shower was partially broken, there was almost no water pressure in the bathroom tap and there was no soda, water or any snacks in the fridge. For the price they charge that would have been a minimum to be expected. We had lunch in one of the restaurants of the hotel and the food was more or less disgusting. The fried calamari was soggy and only half-fried, the chicken wings tasted weird and the fries were very dry. Dinner was fortunately a little bit better in another of the hotel restaurants (we did not have the energy to go outside and look for a restaurant). All in all this hotel is a great disappoin**ent and can not be recommended unless the servi

We spent two nights in this hotel during our Namibia holiday. The hotel has its own secured parking space. The balcony of our room faced the road and a busy parking lot so there was no way of using it. Unfortunately there was no balcony facing the nice courtyard. Room was clean and the size was o.k. too. There was a floor lamp on the right side of the bed which was flickering when turned on. At night couldn’t open the window due to the noise. Buses reversing or waiting with the motor full on. [There is a ****** there]. Apart from the above shortcomings, some of which , understandably, the hotel cannot help, the hotel was o.k. What really stood out was the attitude of the breakfast room staff and the reception. One receptionist in particular appeared to be bored, disinterested and even when directly addressed couldn’t be bothered to help the guests as in when asked if she could recommend a cafe nearby. The breakfast room staff on the other hand were very friendly, doing a great job. The breakfast was also good, including as one guest has already mentioned, Oysters and sparkling wine

The level if service at Atlantic Villa Boutique Guesthouse was very exceptional. The staff demonstrated a genuine passion for hospitality, going above and beyond to anticipate and fulfill every need.

Great location, double bed (rare in Namibian accommodation), nice and simple, secure parking. We stayed here, explored Swakopmund. It has great restaurants, friendly people who are all willing to help when needed. Near Walvis Bay: if you are a surfer try Dolphin Beach. I tried Donkey Bay, but was way beyond my skill level.

We stayed here from 22-27 December 2023, and absolutely loved it. From the time I made bookings, Brigitte's assistance was top notch. When we arrived we were welcomed with broad smiles by reception staff. The staff was so helping and went the extra mile to ensure we had all activities booked. The rooms are clean and spacious. The only down side was the charismas lunch, which I felt did not deliver on what was promised on the menu. I looked forward to tasting eggnog which i have never had, but it was not available. The food that was served was tasty which made up for the missing things on the menu. Overall we had a great experience and will visit the hotel again Thank you to all staff. Tuelo
