iGowati Lodge is situated in Khorixas in Damaraland. It is the perfect stopover when you are on your way to see the wonders of Damaraland. iGowati means desert dunes.
The Lodge is build and decorated in the colors of the Namib dessert. The roofs are of natural thatching that is so commonly seen in Namibia, and the lodge offers you the amenities of a city hotel but in a rural setting with friendly and efficient service.
The Damara people that work at iGowati are believed to be one of the first ancient groups to settle in Namibia and are of Bantu origin. Damarland and Khorixas have a slow African rhythm with friendly people and a welcoming environment to all guests visiting the town.
There are 29 en-suite rooms equipped with telephones/fans and coffee/tea making facilities. The restaurant offers an a la-carte menu as well as buffets for large groups and the bar is open during the day. At night the Aba’s khab traditional group entertains guests and Mr. Michael Doeseb cultural historian shares some interesting facts about the Damara people and their traditions most evenings.
There is a swimming pool to cool off in as well as a curio shop.
