Situated on the Atlantic Coast, the picturesque town of Swakopmund is Namibia's main seaside resort. Being wedged in between the Namib Desert and the Atlantic Ocean, the combination of dry desert air and the moisture from the sea creates the ideal mild temperatures experienced throughout the year. Remnants of the German colonial era are still prevalent in the architecture of the historical buildings all over town.
The antique Colonial building is one of the treasures of Swakopmund and is located in the heart of the historical town and therefore walking distance to restaurants, shops and the beach. Four beautiful buildings on the same premises offer a variety of luxurious suites and apartments and exquisite accommodation to a select few guests.
