Ai-Ais Resort, Namibia

Ai-Ais Resort is an old holiday destination for the local Namibians as well as tourists from South Africa and increasingly from overseas. It was refurbished a while ago and now offers real good permanent accommodation and camping sites.

It is visited for its beauty, its good atmosphere, its hot springs and the accommodation it offers campers and bungalow-dwellers alike in an area that is constantly getting more popular as more and more tourism facilities are added in this fabulous desert area.

It is situated right next to the Fish River and forms part of the lower section of the Canyon. It lies between two massive stone structures, keeping it in welcome shade for long times during the normally very hot days.

Activities here include swimming in the warm pools of the spa, relaxing in the spacious restaurant and taking drives to the many places to visit in the vicinity.

When we visited, we got the idea that the staff are proud of their new facilities and they went out of their way to be helpful and friendly.

The only low point was the prices of goodies at their store! Especially drinks which one should actually stock up on before leaving for the remote places, since they all plead transport costs for the rather exorbitant prices.

We recommend Ai-Ais Resort as one of the best places to visit in the area. It is a very good spot for families and couples to spend a few days.
