More like a spacious colonial villa than a traditional hotel, Villa Margherita combines exceptional accommodation with unparalleled service. Only eight double rooms with fifteen well-trained staff members ensure that each guest’s needs are serviced in a friendly, prompt, and professional manner. There are six spacious rooms with double beds and en suite bathrooms with a shower. Each room come with a quaint name and theme including the King, the Queen, Romeo and Juliet, Eden, Lady Hamilton, Nelson, and the Cottage. The Adam and Eve room features twin beds and both a shower and bath. Each room offers amenities such as flat screen television, safe, free wireless internet, and more. Most rooms are spacious enough to provide a private lounge area as well.
Once a townhouse, the hotel is located in Nambia’s quaint seaside town of Swakopmund. Where the dunes meet the sea on the western edge of the Namib Desert, the city was founded at the time of the German colonial expansion into Africa. There are a host of activities to be enjoyed locally. Fishing tours can be arranged with local operators that also provide tackle. The nearby ocean has many excellent edible species including kob, white steenbras, galjoen, and kolstert, while a number of large shark species can be caught and released.
For even more adventure, guests can take a half-day tour to the seal breeding colony at Cape Cross or to Messum Crater, famous for its unique desert-adapted plant, Welwitschia Mirabilis. Visitors can explore the life and beauty of the Namib Desert on a night walk or take a quad-biking or sand-boarding adventure across the dunes. The wonders of the Skeleton Coast can be discovered by exploring it in a 4×4 vehicle and stopping at the ancient delta of the Ugab River, known for its fossilized freshwater-oyster shells the size of dinner plates. There is abundant bird life to observe in the Walvis Bay lagoon while enjoying a catamaran cruise to see dolphins and seals. When not exploring the surrounding area, tour the historical buildings and monuments of Swakopmund.
The hotel’s historical touches can still be seen in the high ceilings, grand staircases, and hand-crafted finishes contrasting with specially chosen modern art pieces. One of the best features of the hotel is it’s Italian restaurant, Il Tulipano. The owner, Amelio learned to cook at one of Italy’s top catering school and uses his skills to cook up rich Italian cuisine. Meals are served up in the colorful dining room while uplifting music plays. The hotel is very kid-friendly.
