펠리컨 포인트 로지

Staying at the Pelican Point Lodge is a once in a lifetime experience (except we hope to return)! Important Note: The hotel is under new ownership as of April or May 2025. Any reviews you read before that time should be disregarded. The new owner (who we got to meet) has big plans to continue to improve the lodge and has already made a lot of upgrades. This is a beautiful, luxury lodge. This amazing, secluded lodge sits at the end of Pelican Point, with the Atlantic Ocean and 1000's of seals on one side and the Walvis Bay Lagoon on the other side. The boutique lodge only has 10 rooms on three levels with the top level being the penthouse with a 360 degree view of the Point. Every design detail reflects understated luxury, perfectly complementing — not competing with — the stark, stunning beauty of Pelican Point. Our stay included breakfast, lunch and dinner. I don't know if that's always the case, but it should be, there's no where else around! And the food was fantastic. Fresh, locally sourced and beautifully prepared and served. A half-day excursion to Sandwich Harbour is an absolute must when staying at Pelican Point Lodge — it’s one of the few places on Earth where the desert meets the sea in such breathtaking fashion. The lodge can recommend their preferred tour company to pick you up and take you to this magical area. Pelican Point Lodge is a place you will never forget — a rare sanctuary where the wild beauty of Namibia truly takes center stage.

This location was a real surprise to the positive, located in an old lighthouse keepers building. Ask for the top floor to get a room surrounded in glass (the old Control Room) for the most unique room setting we have ever, ever had. Surrounded by water, while on the room deck we watched Humpback whales breaching and seals body surfing during our sundowners drinks, so beautiful. Although a bit limited in selection, our food was the best of our Namibian journey so far. This establishment is just restarting with new ownership, and with some passion and effort, could rank as one of the best in Namibia. Still needs some work including a rebuild of the dock so you can access the boat tour, but I would highly recommend everyone try a night at Pelican Point. Perfect place to stop after your Dune Tour to Sandwich Harbour, and then take the Boat Tour back to Walvis Bay the next morning. You will never forget it!

Thank you for an amazing stay. Absolutely stunning and very private. Keith, the lodge manager, runs a very tight ship and his staff is extremely nice and helpful. The room, the food, and the surroundings were simply beautiful. Best place to stay to visit Sandwich harbor, one of the most beautiful coastline in the world. A memorable stay! Merci beaucoup!

Paid for two nights, but left after one - would have left even earlier if possible. Has the most terrible rooms I have ever seen anywhere.

Extremely original, far away from all noise ( except for the seals!) , surprising building, excellent food ( the best we had in Namibia ) very attentive and friendly service, proximity of the sandwich Harbour dunes , we would return with pleasure

Pelican Point Lodge is a place where beautiful magic happens. The staff are incredibly friendly. Nothing is too much. The suites are impeccable and arranged like any 5 star accommodation with the exception of the most beautiful view - The Ocean. Now you have to be aware that one of the most exciting things about the hotel is the location. If you or your wife are scared easily perhaps ask the escort to pick you up but if you are game, then it is awesome! You first drive over a narrow dam past a pink lake for a few km with thousands of flamingo's on both sides. Then you arrive at the seaside which is one big ca 200 mtr wide sandstrip. No road, just tracks. Deflate your tyres before driving there! The approx 10 km trip over the sand will take you past one of the most famous surf beaches in the world before you then arrive at the hotel. Thousands of seals live on the beach *****. The food is soso, the electricity is turned off at 11 pm until 6 am and wifi is a nightmare but that makes it all the more exciting. Namibia as a country is already magical but Pelican Point Lodge is the cherry on the cake. What an adventure!
