Hakusembe is mostly used as a night-stop by tour groups going from Etosha to Divundu. It‘s an adequate place for this purpose, although neither the lodge nor the area would justify an extended stay. We were told that there is no wifi in the rooms. Surprisingly, there was a strong signal, so all the way back to the lobby to get the password. Pity that the password is not stated in the room directory. The heating function of the air conditioner is not evident either, it took us several attempts before it was properly running. Sitting on the main deck over the Okavango with a sundowner was a lovely experience, unfortunately followed by a crowded dinner, overrun by tour groups. There were lines at the buffet section - not for the food, but for dinner plates. It‘s a complete mystery to me how a place like this can repeatedly run out of tableware.
