"Stunning facility, top down management."

Let me kick off by saying that Desert Quiver Camp is a breathtakingly beautiful facility in a landscape that literally lets you take thousands of photos. The A-frame cottages are extremely well equipped and the pool area is lovely. The food products list on which you can place orders for "self-catering" is great and the portions were large, fresh and very tasty (we ordered chops, sausages and salads for 2 and were able to make road food from them the next day!). I would like to share our experience at Desert Quiver in order to also ensure a more positive experience for future travelers (and especially SADC guests). The staff at reception (I almost think the guy's name was Andrew?) were incredibly friendly and helpful and we had a great time chatting. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of the management. Let me explain. On day 2 of our visit, we decided to spend the sweltering afternoon at the pool and bar area and drink a few Tafel Lagers. Now I must quickly explain; the bar and pool area, the reception and the office of the manager(s) located literally within a radius of 20 m from each other. The bar was unmanned throughout and we just popped in to the manager and asked if we could order a beer as the reception wasn't manned either. The manager was extremely curt and the receptionist who sat and chatted with him went to help us with great difficulty and with a very long face. When we wanted to order another beer, I walked to the driver's door again and asked with our usual Afrikaner decency if we could perhaps order another beer. The manager, obviously annoyed, told the reception person to help us. I wait outside and I reckon the manager thought I was already gone because I hear him saying to the receptionist in the most snide way possible "oh, just give them 4 so they can let us out". Needless to say, we didn't have the courage to relax at the pool area any further and instead headed back to our cottage. May I add that shortly after this incident a German tourist couple came to sit at the bar and instantly the (until that point missing-in-action) bartender, the receptionist as well as the other manager were there to help them. For many this may sound "petty", but for us it was an incident that spoiled our otherwise breathtaking Desert Quiver experience. For a South African who pays in rands, this is not cheap accommodation - on the contrary - it was the most expensive accommodation of our entire Namibia tour and it was disappointing for us that a person in charge could be so pertinently incompetent with people who - like any other tourist - drove far and paid dearly to come and work out at the facility. PS - a final tip: the reception may mention to guests upon arrival that cutlery and cookware are available at reception (there is only a kettle and glasses at the cottages). On our first night, we thought that cutlery was part of the self-catering and ate very nicely from the grill.
