Charlie's Guesthouse
From $104 /person
Where the desert mist meets modern serenity.
Charlie's Guesthouse is a peaceful, family-friendly retreat in historic Swakopmund, just 250 m from the Namib Desert and steps from the town centre. It offers six comfortable rooms and suites (sleeping up to 16 guests total) with secure private parking behind an electric gate. All accommodations feature en-suite bathrooms and private or semi-private patios for a relaxed stay. Instead of onsite breakfast, guests receive vouchers for four excellent local cafés (Wild Rocket Café, Bojos Café, Café Anton, Raith Deli). This supports local businesses, reduces food waste, and lets you explore more of coastal Swakopmund with multiple-night stays you can try them all!
