One of Namibia’s finest experiences is visiting the famous
Dunes of Sossusvlei, Sesriem Canyon, the Naukluft Mountains
and Spreetshoogte Pass.
Solitaire Guest house is a great location from which to base your
day trips and excursions to these destinations. The farm is situated
at the foot of the rugged Rand Mountains with a breathtaking view
over the vast Namib Desert and beautiful Naukluft Mountains.
Stay in one of our authentic Africa en-suite rooms at the original
farmhouse of well-known Solitaire built in the 1950s. Enjoy delicious
African farm cuisine in our thatch-roofed "lapa" while
enjoying the sunset and watching wildlife at our illuminated watering
hole.
Solitaire was named by Elsie Sophia, the wife of the original homesteader,
Willem Christoffel van Coller, who purchased the farm in 1948. It
was originally named Areb after the nearby river. She named the
farm "Solitaire" meaning "a diamond set all by itself".
We are a cozy, private guest farm and if you are an animal lover
this is the place for you. Among the animals on the farm are tame
springbok, suricates (meerkats), dogs, cats, and numerous birdlife.
Experience our numerous hiking trails, nature and night drives
in which you may see oryx, kudu, springbok, mountain zebra, bat-eared
foxes, cheetah, leopard, and smaller animals.
Enjoy a sundowner and an incredible African sunset on the nearby
Sunset Hill or just relax by the pool and take in some of Namibia’s
most fantastic scenery.
