We needed a place to break the journey between two birding hotspots – Kunene River Lodge and Huab Lodge so Oase Guest House in Kamanjab was a good choice for our budget.  It’s right off the main road as you drive south and enter Kamanjab from the north.

The property is very secure with a huge wall around it and a pool in the back.

The fan-cooled brick rooms were actually a good size and had ensuite bathrooms and wifi.

Dinner is served a-la-carte and they had some good choices at good prices.  Breakfast is a continental buffet.

I had been hoping to see birds in the garden but there weren’t any.

Someone told me there were Rosy-faced Lovebirds visiting another guesthouse just down the street a bit called Oppi-Koppi Rest Camp so I had to go over for a peek!  They were kind enough to let me see this little guy and his friend having a meal!

Kamanjab is kind of in the middle of no-where so whether you are headed north or south, I strongly suggest filling up your fuel tank before moving on.  I didn’t see any petrol stations between here and Huab Lodge.  There aren’t any restaurants that I could see in town so plan on eating at the guest house.
