About
Gmundner Lodge

Journey just southeast of Windhoek to discover Gmundner Lodge, cradled between the Kalahari Desert to the east and the Khomas mountain plateau to the west.

With a philosophy founded on sustainable luxury, Gmundner Lodge reimagines the traditional safari to offer guests a distinctive and highly personalized back-to-nature experience in Namibia’s enchanting wilderness.

In homage to our heritage, Gmundner Lodge is a timeless and elegant representation of wild luxury, encompassing unrivalled comfort, exceptional service, meaningful experiences and unwavering devotion to our people and planet. Gmundner Lodge lends itself to more extended stays for a deeper immersion into Namibia’s rich culture and ancient history.

The
Lodge

Reminiscent of a by-gone era and enveloped under canvas, our main lodge welcomes you to relish the slow, unhurried pace of life in the wilderness.

Thoughtfully designed for lazy afternoon aperitifs or post-safari tipples, the heart of our lodge is drenched in safari nostalgia, featuring handcrafted campaign furniture and inviting lounge spaces scattered with antique safari curiosities, telescopes and binoculars.

To make the most of the exquisite natural setting, the lodge’s billowing canvas exteriors roll away to unveil sweeping views of the dramatic landscape and passing wildlife outside. Here, cloud-like sunbeds surround the sparkling infinity pool for a cool reprieve from the heat of the day, poised at the edge of the deck to capture spectacular sunset horizons.

At nightfall, the lodge transforms under the warm glow of flickering lanterns and candlelight to reveal an unimaginable deep onyx sky, splashed with stars best admired from the expansive deck or around the boma’s fire.

The Gmundner Dining Experience

In keeping with our back-to-nature philosophy, dining experiences at Gmundner Lodge showcase a variety of seasonal produce harvested year-round on our farm. With this earth-to-table concept, our farm supplies our kitchen with fresh, nutritious ingredients combined to take guests on an epicurean journey that will delight the senses.

Dining at Gmundner Lodge is purposefully relaxed, allowing our guests to relish in the art of slow living while sharing wholesome meals and award-winning South African and international wine.

In homage to our heritage, our world-class dining experience features our finest Gmundner Keramik tableware, a hallmark of the Gmundner Brand that dates back to 1492.

Choose to enjoy breakfast, lunch and dinner in the warm ambiance of the main lodge, in the privacy of your suite, or on the farm under the great African sky.
