The Overlook

 
 

Description

Your African adventure starts here! Three thatched chalets each have a commanding view of the Kalahari Desert and Orange River Valley. Perched on a hilltop above the town of Keimoes, privacy is a priority at the Overlook. An endless horizon pool, partially enclosed by a thatched lapa, has become a local landmark. We do not have a liquor license, please bring your own. A "swim-up" bar facility, entertainment area as well as private BBQ facilities provide for the perfect getaway.

Each chalet has air-conditioning, satellite TV and its own private veranda for an endless view of the vineyards of the Northern Cape. Your hosts are Eric Husing, a native New Yorker, and his wife, Anna, a South African. Eric was raised in an Indonesian kitchen and is a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America. He is an award winning international Chef. Dining at the Overlook will be an unforgettable experience.

Please make arrangements for meals at least 24 hours in advance.Should you prefer to cater for yourself, each chalet has a fully equipped kitchenette. Breakfast is available, but at an additional charge of R40.00. No meals are included in the room rates as listed. Arrangements for your Safari can be made from here by Daktari Safari. Experience your African dream in the Kalahari. The gateway to Africa. The last truly untamed territory in sunny South Africa.

Excellent!
Cedric Scarafile, Italy

We really enjoyed our stay. It was just a pity we stayed for only one night.
What a view!

My wife and I enjoyed The Overlook very much. The view from the patio is out of this world. The beautiful photographs speak for themselves. The hospitality, delicious food and friendliness were tops. Thank you for everything. We will stay with you if we travel through Keimoes again.
Wonderful!

Had a fabulous time here after a long trip through Namaqualand. The pool was so refreshing in the heat, and the hosts are wonderful people! Thank you so much!
