Onkoshi Resort

About - The Onkoshi Camp is an exclusive, low impact environmentally friendly semi-permanent, up-market lodge on the eastern edge of the Etosha Pan, on elevated wooden decks.

With only 15 private chalets and a maximum of 30 guests at any one time, Onkoshi offers a more peaceful tranquil stay than any of the other camps in Etosha.

Guests arrive in Namutoni from where they will be transported to Onkoshi Camp in NWR vehicles.

Accommodation and Furnishings - The thatched roofs and insulated canvas walls help protect guests staying at Onkoshi from the heat of the Namibian sun, while large, wooden-framed retractable doors allow for a spectacular panoramic view.

All accommodation at Onkoshi is tastefully equipped with locally crafted fittings and furnishings. A combination of metal and wood, along with natural fabrics, creates a natural and ethnic ambiance.

Facilities - Onkoshi has an infinity swimming pool overlooking the pan.

The small restaurant and bar area spill out onto a lovely large decking area that looks directly onto the Etosha Pan perfect for sundowners and sunsets.

The site is on a secluded peninsula, and offers a full view towards the west, overlooking the immense saline pan. The location is entirely out of view of current tourist routes, and offers a pristine, tranquil and unique experience to its guests.

Activities - One of the primary attractions of the lodge is the proximity to the pan, with its shimmering mirages during the hot days; dramatic sunset and sunrise textures and colours; sense of isolation and space; clear night skies; and the sights, smells and sounds of untamed and unadulterated Africa.

Other activities provided at Onkoshi include:

• Access to exclusive areas within the north-eastern sand veld area of Etosha
• Guided morning or afternoon game drives
• Guided night game drives
• Guided walks
