NWR renovates two facilities
/Ai-/Ais hot springs and spa were partially closed and underwent a major facelift this year.
Namibia Wildlife Resorts earlier this year undertook to improve its /Ai-/Ais hot springs and spa, Terrace Bay resort and Okaukuejo restaurant. The upgrades were aimed at bringing the facilities up to date and to a standard that its guests have come to expect from the tourism establishment.
/Ai-/Ais hot springs and spa, which were partially closed, underwent a major facelift. The work included an upgrade of the sanitary fittings in the rooms, the replacement of the spa pool tiles and the refurbishment of the restaurant and storeroom. The entire resort was also painted to refresh its look.
“Telios Namibia Consulting Engineers, who are managing the project, assured NWR that the resort will be fully functional from 4 August 2017. Based upon a further assessment that was not part of the initial renovations, Telios Namibia Consulting Engineers have committed to renovating the VIP rooms to bring them to the standard of the rest of the resort.
“These renovations are envisioned to be completed within the first week of September 2017,” said Zelna Hengari, NWR's managing director.
According to her, improvements at other establishments are on course for completion.
“With regard to the Okaukuejo restaurant, 80% of the work has been completed with some minor work remaining to be done. It is worthy to note that all the pool areas have been tiled. When it comes to Terrace Bay, 90% of the work has been done with minor touch-ups remaining,” added Hengari.
Hengari expressed delight at the progress but regretted the impact that some of the renovations have had on the guest experience.
“Our guests are our number one priority and we want to assure them that we do appreciate their business and will always strive to enhance their experience at our facilities,” said Hengari.
