Solitaire is known for its mountain views and restaurants, and entices visitors with popular attractions including Namib-Naukluft National Park and Namib Desert.
If seeing the sights is on your list of things to do, head to Pelican Point Lighthouse— just one of the landmarks located 6.4 mi (10.3 km) from central Walvis Bay.
"The view from our room was simply spectacular. An executive room, number 4, overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and jetty. Next to the jetty is one of two restaurants, the Tug, a few minutes walk and outstanding food and service. The room itself was great, comfortable beds, and wonderful shower with nice water pressure. The fridge was perfect for chilling wine and beer. The elevator was very much appreciated. We had the pleasure of talking to Jolande at reception, who managed to book an excellent tour for us, of the Skeleton Coast and Cape Cross. The other staff at reception were very helpful too, providing us with ice for drinks, and offering tips and answering all of our questions. The ladies at breakfast were simply wonderful, so friendly, and providing excellent service. Some good food choices, and the eggs were always a good way to start the day. We didn't use the bar onsite, as we purchased wine and beer at the grocery store just a few minutes walk away. Swakopmund is a gem by the ocean, and our stay at A La Mer couldn’t have been any better. "
"A lovely establishment right at the center of everything, beach restaurants, bars and shops. Nelly at reception and her coworkers were absolutely kind and helpful. They booked my transfers, activities and had great recommendations of places to eat etc. I was room 21, just over the bar. Room is spacious and beautifully decorated.
It needs a little more love as some of the deco is showing signs of age.
The bar closes around 9pm at 10pm, it’s all quiet. It was quite hot during my stay and the aircon in the room was an absolute lifesaver.
Nespresso. Machine in the room I was a definite plus for me. Breakfast was adequate and fruit was fresh.
As a solo female traveler, I felt safe throughout my stay.
Definitely recommend this place. "
"What a wonderful stay. Super staff, really nice facilities. We booked last minute and after so long on the road camping, to have such a comfortable welcoming place to stay was a godsend. Room is very clean, very well equipped and the staff is ready to help with absolutely anything. I can't thank them enough. "
