Amazing property. We were made to feel very welcome for our entire stay. The room was big, clean, comfortable and beautiful. Breakfast was fantastic, service was brilliant and the beach was only a minutes walk away. Property came with parking, was a nice quiet location yet restaurants/bars etc were only a few mins drive away. We really enjoyed the extras in our room to make our stay even more perfect.

Located in the centre of Old Swakopmund, The Secret Garden Guesthouse offers simply decorated rooms overlooking the garden. It features a sun terrace.

Swakopmund Museum is only 1 km away from the guest house. There are also many bars and restaurants within walking distance from the property.

A cozy nook in Swakop. Everyone was very welcoming and helpful. Mind that the room was quite cold and damp even with the heater, so towels don’t really get dry, but overall we enjoyed our stay. The atmosphere at breakfast is peaceful, and the food and service was great. On our last day they prepared a breakfast bag to go, since our departure was early morning, - very nice. Big thanks to the whole team!

There is a private entrance at the guest house for the convenience of those who stay. Martin Luther Steam Locomotive is 19 km away and Otavi-Bahnhof is 22 km from the guest house.

My wife and I booked 3 nights at Moon Landscape outside Swakopmund. As the rate was very reasonable and suited our budget, we didn’t expect much. The host Suzanne invited us for an early check-in. (Not common practice at most other places) Heartly welcomed by Suzanne, offered a nice ice-cold welcome drink, and briefed us on what was available. The view from our unit and from the common guest area was very peaceful and eerie in a sense. Late afternoon Suzanne invited us and the two other guests for a tour into the Moon Landscape valley and hills. What an unsuspected experience this was, the landscape was breathtaking, and it was clear why it is called Moon Landscape. (Scenes of the movie, Mad Max, an apocalyptic story set in the furthest reaches of our planet, in a stark desert landscape, were shot in the area.) On our return we were invited to braai at the common area with the hosts and the other two guests. Hindi, Suzanne’s husband spoiled us with his interesting stories and time went too quick. The unit was very clean and stocked with everything needed for a pleasant stay, even a gas barbeque inside the unit, the springbuck kebabs barbequed excellent on the gas braai. Fresh milk in the fridge, 5 litres of drinking water and full suite of Netflix including internet connectivity and good Wi-Fi include in the very reasonable rate. Next day Suzanne spoiled us with a freshly homemade mealie bread and sweet peaches. In closing, arrived as strangers and left as friends. Thanks once again for the tour and your hospitality.

    We stayed for 2 nights and didn't regret a second. Rian is a fantastic and open-hearted host. He will help you immediately with any problems or concerns. We felt very welcome and the accommodation is full of character with great attention to detail. The location is in the middle of swakopmund and therfore perfect as a starting point for excursions but still very quiet. Rian, Thank you for a wonderful time. Best regards Ines and Hendrik

    Rustic Inn was our 'home abroad' for four nights, and we really enjoyed every moment over there. It's hard to image a more cozy atmosphere with all the nice details our kind and thoughtful hostess Mariann had created into rooms and a large, beautiful patio. Even though the place is in the heart of Swakopmund, the street is quiet, and nothing will disturb the peace of the sleeper. Highly recommeded - thank you so much !
