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.
Guest Rooms at Onkoshi - The guest rooms at Onkoshi are spacious chalets built on elevated wooden decks. The chalets at Onkoshi feature:
Accommodation and Furnishings - The 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.
Child Policy - Children over the age of six years can be accommodated on a sleeper couch sharing with parents (not available in the honeymoon chalet).
Note that children under the age of six are not allowed at Onkoshi Camp.
Facilities - Onkoshi has an 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.
