Onjala Lodge is situated only 75 km from Windhoek and 45 km from Windhoek Hosea Kutako International Airport and is easily accessible by small car. Set against a mountainside, Onjala affords spectacular views of views of the valley below, where resident game roam the 1700 ha private nature reserve. Perched on the mountaintop is a second pool and viewing platform, affording panorama views and spectacular sunsets. After nightfall the star-studded sky can be explored with a good quality, stationary telescope.

Built in an unconventional architectural style, rough natural stone of the area was used to blend unobtrusively with its backdrop. The eleven duplex rooms in the main structure with large sliding glass doors and small lounges are comfortably furnished. The lower balcony overlooks the surrounding scenery and the second balcony on the upper level looks onto the central courtyard with small tropical garden, pool and waterfall.
