Gecko Ridge

Swakopmund

Just beyond the coastal fog line, with views overlooking the snaking Swakop River, this arid desert landscape and the nearby Moon landscape surround Gecko Ridge. The gym and outdoor lapa overlook a semi-enclosed, sparkling saltwater pool, making it the perfect reprieve from the harsh desert environment outside.

This desert oasis has beautiful wooden decks, lush green gardens, and water ponds, which offer a serene atmosphere, and the lapa, with its south-facing views, offers amazing views over the moon landscape, which you can enjoy while relishing a sundowner. Gecko Ridge also boasts a fully licensed restaurant, and facilities to host a wedding or year-end function.
