Kempinski Mokuti Lodge – Etosha National Park Lodge
If you are looking for a luxurious place of accommodation when visiting Etosha National Park, look no further than Kempinski Mokuti Lodge. Hidden away on its own private expanse of 4,300ha of prime farmland, this is Namibia’s first internationally branded 5-star hotel. Mokuti is the Himba word for “in the bush.”
The entrance to Etosha is nearby and is only a 2 minute drive from Kempinski Mokuti airstrip, thus making this the ideal destination for a luxurious base to explore and experience the wonders of Namibia’s fantastic wildlife populations.

Kempinski services are extensive.
Guests enjoy wireless internet in public areas, a business centre, a curio shop, gym, 2 floodlit tennis courts, billiard room, and separate adult and kids swimming pools. There is room service, a lounge area, library, babysitting service and children’s play area, laundry, secure parking, petrol station and craft market. Basically, once at Kempinski there is no reason to go anywhere else except Etosha.
Enhance your eating experience at 1 of the 2 restaurants at Kempinski. The Tambuti Restaurant serves a combination of fresh cooking, premium international buffets and meals from their ‘a la carte’ menu. Or enjoy the traditional African grill cuisine at The Boma. The Marula Bar at Kempinski offers a variety of beers and fine wines and the Pool Bar is the place to relax by the pool with snacks and drinks.
