Namibian resorts and lodges fully booked this year

The high growing demand in domestic tourism and leisure in Namibia is heading for a peak as the festive season approaches, with some resorts and lodges already fully booked.

Only a handful are still left with space to accommodate visitors, meaning this will hinder financially challenged people who’ll find few opportunities to travel as there’ll be no special offers for the festive season at most of the lodges, resorts and nature reserves.

“We are fully booked for the festive season, and we can no longer accommodate people any further. Therefore as a result we will not have any special offers especially with regard to booking price, because if we make special offers we will be overcrowded and we won’t have space anymore to cater for them and we don’t want to disappoint our customers,” said Reinhold Risser, the manager of Gocheganas.

However, the marketing and communication officer of Namibia Wildlife Resorts (NWR), Mufaro Nesongano, said they will have special offers and promotions for the festive season at all NWR resorts countrywide.

He reiterated that NWR is currently working on a special and promotional offer called “Namholiday” by which it aims to give guests the opportunity to make one payment, which will include transport and accommodation fees at any NWR resort for a period of a guest’s choice.
“This will be a bonus to some customers that already have Nam Leisure Card, which entitles any holder of the Nam Leisure Card to receive 50 percent discount at all NWR resorts,” said Nesongano.

He added that they look forward to getting more bookings as the Gross Barmen and Hardap Dam resorts scheduled to be opened in November, adding that there is still more space available to accommodate people.
