Big Sky Lodges takes over full management of Villa Margherita
"Do anything but let it produce joy." Walt Whitman
The hotel’s name is a tribute to a remarkable woman who inspired many and amongst them the founders of Villa Margherita. “Margherita” also means daisy in Italian; a beautiful flower that embodies Love, Beauty, Transformation and New Beginnings – the very foundations of Villa Margherita itself. Villa Margherita is a small luxury boutique hotel in the heart of Swakopmund consisting of four stylish buildings which are all located close to each other on the same premises. A fusion of contemporary art and historic colonial buildings.
Big Sky Lodges are proud to announce their further collaboration with Villa Margherita, with effect from 01 December 2020. Big Sky Lodges have been doing the reservations and the online marketing for Villa Margherita since 2015, but will now also take over the full management function of this beautiful and unique boutique hotel situated in the heart of Swakopmund.
Situated in the heart of historic Swakopmund in Daniel Tjongarero Avenue, coastal Namibia. Exceptionally central and quiet. True walking distance to restaurants, shops and beach. Experience the smiles of Namibia with the passion of Swiss hospitality.
We are, however, also excited to announce that Villa Margherita will be offering a new self-catering option, as well as special rates for locals and SADC residents, both on accommodation and on their lovely Spa treatments. The perfect way to combine relaxation with all the diverse adventure activities on offer in the Swakopmund area.
We have also introduced a Tourism Recovery Rate with a substantial discount valid until June 2021 year for international guests as well as SADC specials.
In addition, Big Sky Lodges will also be offering new “Bush-&-Beach” packages, combining the beauty of the bush at Ai Aiba Lodge with the beach and the coast at Villa Margherita. Or even combine a walking trail at Etendeka, in the heart of Kaokoveld, with some downtime at the beach afterwards.
Villa Margherita is open and has been certified by the Ministry of Health and Social Services as having all the correct and required Covid-19 protocols in place. We take the safety of our staff and guests extremely seriously and are operating strictly according to the Namibia Tourism Board’s recommended Covid-19 protocol.
