Stiltz Guest House

De Stilz was the perfect base for exploring the area around Walvis Bay and Sandwich Harbour (only about a 40-minute drive). The hotel itself is a little dated, but it still provided a very pleasant and charming stay. Great value for money, and with restaurants within easy walking distance, everything was convenient. Just keep in mind that the coast can be quite chilly – including in the rooms – so don’t forget to pack a warm sweater and a windbreaker.

We spent the last two nights of our honeymoon here after camping for 4 weeks around Namibia and Botswana. It was perfect. The rooms are beautiful and we were in Lodge 6 with a fabulous view of the sea and the estuary (with flamingoes outside). We had a lounge area, lovely bathroom and a deck overlooking the sea. It's not often sunny in Swakopmund but the misty, sea air was very atmospheric and it's a short walk to the town centre and restaurants and shops. Breakfast is very good too and the staff were very friendly and helpful. A beautiful and unique place to stay.

Great one night stopover. We arrived in the hot month and not a fan or aircon in sight. Made our stay a bit uncomfortable. Breakfast was included and very nice.

We stayed here for 3 nights in room #6. We had the perfect spot for sunset. The room is large and comfortable. The bathroom is nice, but could use some shampoo and conditioner. Only body wash available. The buffet breakfast was delicious and the ladies that work it are super kind. Johnny B good is the night watchman and he is so friendly . We felt completely safe knowing he was watching over us. You are at the south end of town, but a very close walk to the Tiger Reef restaurant and only a short drive into the middle of town. All and all a very pleasant stay:)

We always stay at the Stiltz when we come to Swakopmund- the welcome is so friendly and the rooms are amazing, with superb views over a lagoon full of wildfowl. The rooms are clean and well equipped. Very easy to walk into town. Highly recommended.

our third stop on a 16 day trip to Namibia and back to Riebeek West-South Africa - we stayed here with two couples from 09 till 12 September 2024 - rather cold in Swakopmund - we ourselves had the first cabin and our family the one on the right side on the end with an ocean view; the flamingos at their feet (electric blankets) - cleanliness was OK some things can be improved to give it a more up to date standard but all in all we had a great time we booked via the guest house itself and everything goes right we were welcomed by an outstanding friendly staff and security guard - there was no place at the car park but obviously it is a safe area the luggage of our family was stayed behind in Cape Town International and the staff made an arrangement to get it back the other day they made also the arrangements for dinner at Brewer and Butcher, Ocean Cellar and The Jetty breakfast (buffet) was very good, and we were always very early birds (due to Sandwich Harbour- and catamaran activity) Wifi is available in the room, but you get a better signal in the restaurant area highly recommended

This place has a real rustic charm but when we there it was cold and damp. This must happen a lot as there were heaters provided and even electric blankets (which I used because the sheets felt cold and damp). Only a few of the huts actually have a view of the sea / estuary. Breakfast wasn't great, if you want hot pancakes go early as they are cooked but not kept warm. Elsie on reception was a true star, couldn't have been more helpful when we had issues we car hire and health. That said, don't think I'd return.

A wooden hotel with thatched roof on stilts, as the name says, on the beach of the Atlantic. The walk to the rooms is via jetties. Spectacular views from the spacious room, which features a sitting area, coffee bar, en-suite bathroom. Staff is super friendly and attentive.

Quirky, well appointed, extremely comfortable bed and breakfast accommodation, with stunning views of the Atlantic, the dunes, and the flamingos. Great location. Easy to walk everywhere. Fantastic breakfast, with sensational coffee!
