Revamped Waterberg Camp open

THE Waterberg Camp run by Namibia Wildlife Resorts (NWR) was revamped to provide a whole new experience to visitors, Environment and Tourism Minister Willem Konjore said at the opening of the resort on Friday.

“The facilities have been changed to improve views of the surrounding nature and to provide greater comfort,” said Konjore, who officiated at the opening ceremony. At the same occasion, he also introduced NWR’s new logo, designed by Advantage McCann.He said refurbishing the camp was a positive development, especially when one reflects on the not-so-distant past, when NWR found itself with a poor possibility of recovery.The refurbishing of the Waterberg Camp is part of the NWR’s turnaround strategy, aimed at bringing its services in line with international standards.The renovations took three months and focused on improving the interior décor and comfort by removing all concrete beds and improving facilities.This was followed by staff training to improve service delivery.With 69 accommodation units and 40 camping sites under towering camel-thorn trees, the camp can accommodate about 450 guests.At the same occasion, he also introduced NWR’s new logo, designed by Advantage McCann.He said refurbishing the camp was a positive development, especially when one reflects on the not-so-distant past, when NWR found itself with a poor possibility of recovery.The refurbishing of the Waterberg Camp is part of the NWR’s turnaround strategy, aimed at bringing its services in line with international standards.The renovations took three months and focused on improving the interior décor and comfort by removing all concrete beds and improving facilities.This was followed by staff training to improve service delivery.With 69 accommodation units and 40 camping sites under towering camel-thorn trees, the camp can accommodate about 450 guests.
