Avenir Safari Group

Avenir occupies a fenced wildlife property in the Otjozondjupa region, set alongside the B1 highway north of Okahandja. Windhoek's international airport is roughly two hours south; Etosha is about three hours further north, so the lodge serves both as a stop on that road and as a destination in itself.

Seven rooms are divided across four accommodation types. The Waterhole Suites are the most private — each has a king-sized bed, a freestanding bathtub facing the waterhole, a walk-in shower, indoor and outdoor seating, a mini bar, and air conditioning. Wildlife gathers at the waterhole through the day, visible from the veranda or the bath. The Classic Garden Chalets sit closer to the pool among the gardens, with king or twin beds, a private veranda, a rain shower, and a bathtub; Damara dik-dik are often seen grazing in the surrounding garden. Family Chalets have two interlinking rooms for up to five guests, with a cot or extra bed available on request. The campsites are solar-powered, each with private ablutions, hot water, a braai area, a small kitchen setup, and a splash pool.

Activities include guided rhino tracking on foot, game drives at sunrise and sunset to see giraffe, zebra, and antelope, night drives, guided walks, stargazing, and birding. The lodge also runs hilltop viewpoint dinners with fire-cooked food. The property is malaria-free, and staff speak English, Afrikaans, and German.
