Charming little nature reserve close to Windhoek.

Beautiful small nature reserve, ideal for hiking and a little game drive. Lovely cottage, but the bathroom was not clean. There was hair in the drain and mold on the wall in the shower. I accidentally broke a glass in the bathroom. The broken glass was removed, but I still found a lot of glass splinters on the washbasin after cleaning. The restaurant offers a very limited menu, with no starters at all. The healthy breakfast is perfect, and the staff in both the restaurant and the reception are professional.

Hoogtepunt van my Namibië vakansie.

Ons het so lekker gebly by Sun Karros Daan Viljoen Wildtuin. Die wild was amazing, die plek is so mooi skoon en mens kon net lekker ontspan. Die personeel was baie behulpsaam en ons het baie lekker geëet in die restaurant. Ek sal beslis die plek aanbeveel!

Highlight of my Namibia holiday.

We had such a nice stay at Sun Karros Daan Viljoen Wildlife Park. The wildlife was amazing, the place is so nice and clean and you could just relax. The staff were very helpful and we had a very nice meal in the restaurant. I would definitely recommend the place!

Baie goed ingerigte kampplekke met eie ablusie. Net buite Windhoek.

Ons het 2 nagte hier gebly, en dit was heerlik en gerieflik. Twee goed om in ag te neem: 1. Bobbejane kom elke oggend en aand verby en is mak en sal enigiets vat wat hulle dink kos is - tot my elektriese ketel. So alles moet agter slot en grendel wees. 2. Nêrens in die bespreking is ek attent gemaak dat daar 'n bewaringsfooi en voertuigfooi addisioneel aan die Park betaal moet word nie!

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Very well equipped campsites with own ablutions. Just outside Windhoek.

We stayed here for 2 nights, and it was lovely and comfortable. Two things to consider: 1. Baboons come by every morning and night and are tame and will take anything they think is food - up to my electric kettle. So everything must be under lock and key. 2. Nowhere in the discussion was I made aware that a conservation fee and vehicle fee must be paid additionally to the Park!

One night camping and game spotting.

The camping facilities were simply excellent. We had our own private bbq, toilet, shower and wash up facilities. We saw plenty of giraffe, kudu, warthogs, baboons, ostrich, wildebeest, some springbok and some smaller deer. It was good for 1 night, and if we were able to do a small hike than 2-3 nights would have been better. 2 nights is probably about right perhaps, as there are no significant predators within the park. So depends why you have gone there. We had a good time.

Pragtige plek, lekker atmosfeer, wonderlike geriewe, skoon, netjies.

Ons het heerlik hier gebly op pad terug na Suid-Afrika en was eintlik baie verbaas dat daar so min vakansiegangers was, want dit is 'n lieflike plek met uitstekende geriewe en wonderlike personeel. Ons is spyt dat ons nie langer kon bly nie maar Daan Viljoen Game Park sal weer vir ons sien. Hoogs aan te beveel!

Beautiful place, nice atmosphere, great facilities, clean, tidy.

We had a lovely stay here on our way back to South Africa and were actually very surprised that there were so few holidaymakers as it is a lovely place with excellent facilities and wonderful staff. We regret that we could not stay longer but Daan Viljoen Game Park will see us again. Highly recommended!

Hou verby.

Sommer met die intrapslag was ek geïrriteerd met die hekwag wat ons nie behoorlik verwelkom het nie. Hy het gesit-lê in sy stoel en hom nie eers verwerdig om op te staan nie. Nors ook. Eenheid no 3 was 'n groot teleurstelling aangesien ons die volgende oggend in die snerpende koue nie warm water vir stort gehad het nie. Die gasstelsel het doodeenvoudig nie gewerk nie. Die terrein rondom die eenheid is ook nie gelyk nie en ek was genoodsaak om my tent op die eenheid se stoep staan te maak. Van gras, soos op die foto's, was daar geen sprake nie. Die restaurant-area maak ook 17:00 toe.

Stop by.

As soon as we stepped in, I was annoyed with the gate guard who did not welcome us properly. He sat and lay in his chair and did not even deign to get up. Grumpy too. Unit no 3 was a big disappointment as we had no hot water for showering the next morning in the bitter cold. The gas system simply did not work. The terrain around the unit is also not level and I was forced to pitch my tent on the unit's porch. There was no mention of grass, as in the photos. The restaurant area also closes at 17:00.

Die privaat kampeerplekfasiliteite was goed gewees en geen klagtes nie. Het te kort gebly om al die aktiwiteite te benut soos swem en stap.

Begin Sep was die gras maar yl, maar glo na somerreëns gaan dit weer goed groei.

The private campsite facilities had been good and no complaints. Stayed too short to take advantage of all the activities such as swimming and walking.

At the beginning of Sep the grass was sparse, but apparently after the summer rains it will grow well again.

Pragtig oorgedoen, was 30 jaar terug daar - bly spesiaal.

Die kamers is baie mooi gedoen, die wasbakke is bietjie onprakties - mors water. Die ligte se skakelaars is bietjie snaaks gespasieër- bedlampies se skakelaar bv. by die voordeur en buiteligte by braai nie beskikbaar nie.

Beautifully redone, was there 30 years back - remains special.

The rooms are very nicely done, the sinks are a bit impractical - waste water. The lights' switches are a bit funny spacer - bedside lamps' switch e.g. at the front door and outside lights at braai not available.

Fantatstiese verblyf gerieflike geleë net 20 km buite Windhoek.

Ons is baie spyt dat ons Daan Viljoen net as 'n oornag-stop gebruik het - dit is regtig die moeite werd om 'n paar dae te bly. Die akkommodasie is baie uniek en weelderig, netjies en modern. Daar is lekker roetes waar jy in die veld en tussen die wild (bokke) kan gaan stap. En dit is skaars 15 minute se ry buite Windhoek. So as jy 'n rustige kuier buite die stad se gewoel verlang, maar nog steeds naby die stad se geriewe wil wees is Daan Viljoen net die plek vir jou! Hoogs aanbeveel - geniet dit!

Fantastic accommodation conveniently located just 20 km outside Windhoek.

We really regret that we only used Daan Viljoen as an overnight stop - it's really worth staying for a few days. The accommodation is very unique and luxurious, neat and modern. There are nice routes where you can go for a walk in the field and among the wildlife (goats). And it's barely a 15-minute drive outside of Windhoek. So if you want a peaceful visit outside the city's bustle, but still want to be close to the city's amenities, Daan Viljoen is just the place for you! Highly recommended - enjoy!

Goed-toegeruste verblyf.

Ons verblyf was aangenaam en ons was in staat om 12 verskillende boksoorte te kon sien tydens ons sirkelroete in die park. Dit is nog buiten die mak volstruis, vlakvark en blouwildebeeste wat ons by ons kampterrein kom besoek het.

Well-equipped accommodation.

Our stay was pleasant and we were able to see 12 different species of antelope during our circular route in the park. This is in addition to the tame ostrich, warthog and blue wildebeest that we visited at our campsite.
