Onguma the Fort

This Fort is truly one of a kind — the only one of its nature in Namibia perfectly positioned to offer guests what is undoubtedly among the most breathtaking sunset views in the country. From its vantage point, the Fort overlooks the vast, haunting beauty of the Etosha Pans, a landscape defined by its striking sparseness, roaming wildlife, and the scattered silhouettes of ancient Camel Thorn trees.

Accommodation includes twelve elegant Bush Suites, thoughtfully designed with fireplaces to warm the winter months and air coolers to ensure comfort in the summer. Each suite features both indoor and outdoor showers, allowing guests to connect with the wilderness in absolute privacy.

Crowning the experience is the exclusive Fort Suite, located within the Main Tower of the lodge. This singular sanctuary boasts a spacious, beautifully appointed bedroom leading into a stylish lounge and out onto a private viewing deck, where sweeping panoramas of the Etosha horizon unfold in all their grandeur.

Here, at the Fort, history, luxury, and nature converge — creating an unforgettable retreat at the edge of Namibia’s wild heart.
