Alte VillaLüderitz, Karas, Namibia Bed and Breakfast | (POA) |
We acquired this charming Villa which was built in 1909 by merchants from Hamburg / Germany in 2017. The Villa has lovingly been renovated and carefully restored to its previous beauty. Each room has been individually decorated and has its own particular charm.
Built on rocks in a small enclave within the Sperrgebiet (restricted Diamond Area) is the quaint harbour town of Lüderitz with its curious array of historical German-style buildings built during the diamond rush.
Set around the sparkling bay, with their gables, winding stairwells, verandahs, turrets and bay and bow windows, these buildings have a unique character of their own.
The Lüderitz area is home to a wide variety of aquatic birds. Large numbers of flamingos, cormorants and seagulls inhabit the shallow lagoon. When sailing in the bay, seals and dolphins can be seen playing in the water.
