Loved this place! First we booked 2 nights but then extended 2 more.
The people are just fantastic! Got some really good help with booking our trip to Sandwich harbour, which was amazing!!!! And you should definitely join in for the Salty Jackal dinner night :)
Really nice relaxing place. You can choose to sleep in a dorm, twin room or a private double room. The Salty Jackal is close to beaches and the center, has a fully equipped kitchen, fridge, honesty bar and cool hostel vibe. The wifi is great and owner and staff are super friendly and helpful.
Fantastic stay, fantastic people ❤️
Super lovely people with an excellent vision in mind. The location is also pretty sweet, especially if you're chasing waves :). Also, ask Ollie for good meat recommendations to cook up at the hostel. Parking is super convenient and safe.
Great value for money and feels like home.

Swakopmund Reviews
The sea, the landscape (Dunes), etc.

Fantastic town, loads to do, clean, beautiful and full of character. My favorite town through South Africa and Namibia so far.
I am looking for accommodation for group of 50 guests for self catering in Swakmund. It can be 2 to 4 per sleeper.
Amazing scenery from mountains to sand dunes and oceans.
The weather and the restaurants in Swakopmund.
