Onguma Camp Kala

Onguma Nature Reserve · Exclusive 8-guest camp on raised wooden decks

On the eastern boundary of Etosha, Onguma Camp Kala is an intimate luxury retreat for just eight guests — elevated on wooden decks above one of Onguma's most active waterholes.

Four open-plan suites each have a private plunge pool, wood-fired hot tub, outdoor sala with daybed and bespoke double-vanity bathroom. A short walkway leads from each to its own shaded star-gazing platform.

The central guest area features a show kitchen, an open-air boma, a cocktail bar — and a ground-level photographic hide that puts you eye-to-eye with elephants, lions and rhino at the water.

Information

Description
On the eastern boundary of Etosha National Park in Namibia is Onguma Nature Reserve, a private wilderness spanning 35,480 ha. Within this reserve, elevated on wooden decks and with panoramic views over one of Onguma’s most beautiful and active waterholes is the exclusive and intimate Onguma Camp Kala. Appealing to the sophisticated luxury adventure traveller seeking authenticity and deep comfort, the camp accommodates just eight guests in 4 suites. Spacious and private, the open-plan suites have a sumptuous bedroom and comfortable lounge with a state-of-the-art air-cooling system, and a beautiful bathroom with bespoke double vanities, full-size free-standing bathtub and generous shower. Each suite has its own deck with plunge pool, wood-fired hot tub and along a short walkway, a private, shaded Sala with an outdoor daybed - perfectly placed for an armchair safari – or even a “sleep out” under the stars. In the central guest area, there is a comfortable lounge, cocktail bar and an expansive deck. The dining area has an open plan, interactive ‘show’ kitchen and all-day pantry for tasty treats. A highlight at Camp Kala is undoubtedly the ground-level photographic hide which offers a different perspective of all the waterhole action. There is also a gym, spa and yoga deck.
