Bush Camp is the largest and most family-oriented of the Onguma camps, built above one of the reserve's busier waterholes. Its 18 rooms are split across five types, including three family rooms and three loft rooms. Most of the camp is fenced, and it runs a children's programme. Facilities include a swimming pool, a two-room spa, a treetop hide and a lounge and dining area overlooking the waterhole. Activities are private game drives on the reserve, guided walks, night drives, use of the Onkolo photographic hide, sleep-out trips, and excursions into Etosha through the Von Lindequist Gate. Three deluxe rooms sit in an unfenced section and are not recommended for small children.
What sets it apart
It is the one Onguma camp built specifically around families, with a fenced core and a children's programme.
Who it suits

About the photographs
The pictures on this page are stock photographs of African bush and desert country, chosen to suggest the kind of landscape you find around the Etosha country of northern Namibia. They are not photographs of this property, and we cannot verify where any of them was taken — a stock library records the photographer, not the place. We use them rather than borrow the property's own marketing images, which would imply we had been there. For pictures of the rooms, see the property's own site.
