Webinar Recording: O&L Leisure – An Invitation to Experience Namibia Through Our Eyes

Summary of key points:

The Heart of O&L Leisure

O&L Leisure is more than a collection of lodges and hotels. It is a purpose-driven family within the Ohlthaver & List (O&L) Group, guided by values that honour people, planet, and possibility. Every experience, every smile, and every stay is crafted to connect guests to something real; the true spirit of Namibia.

Six Destinations

From the reimagined Mokuti Etosha Lodge on the edge of Etosha National Park to the coastal charm of Strand Hotel Swakopmund, the tranquil countryside of Midgard Otjihavera Windhoek, the riverside serenity of Chobe Water Villas Zambezi, the architectural wonder of Le Mirage Sossusvlei, and the lush sanctuary of Divava Okavango, each property offers a unique window into Namibia’s natural and cultural soul. Together, they form a collection that embodies #TheLeisureExperience: warm, soulful, and unforgettable.

Pioneering Culinary Journeys

At O&L Leisure, dining is far more than a meal. It is a pioneering celebration of Namibia’s bounty, creativity, and soul. From the first-of-its-kind SkyBoma, where guests dine elevated 8 metres above the plains beneath a canopy of stars, to coastal seafood savoured with the crisp Atlantic breeze, and wholesome farm-inspired dishes that embody true farm-to-plate living, every experience is designed to awaken the senses and tell a story of place and culture. Across our lodges and hotels, locally sourced ingredients, seasonal produce, and authentic Namibian flair come together in perfect harmony, creating culinary journeys that are uniquely O&L - first of their kind in Africa, inspiring wonder, connection, and memories that linger long after the journey ends.

Leisure Club

We unveiled the Leisure Club, our heartfelt rewards programme designed to celebrate connection and belonging. Members enjoy up to 50% off accommodation and 20% off dining, along with exclusive experiences that encourage exploration across our portfolio. More than perks, it’s a growing community of travellers who return to rediscover Namibia through our eyes.

Purposeful Travel and Corporate Inspiration

O&L Leisure is where travel meets transformation. For incentive planners and corporate groups, we don’t just offer venues, we create meaningful moments. Whether it’s a leadership retreat beneath the desert stars, a riverside celebration, or a strategic gathering surrounded by wildlife, every experience is designed to connect people and ignite purpose.

Sustainability and Legacy

Our commitment to sustainability is woven into everything we do. From conserving natural resources and sourcing locally, to uplifting nearby communities, we believe that true luxury lies in leaving a positive legacy, one that nurtures both the environment and the people who call Namibia home.

The Future of Namibian Hospitality

As we look ahead, O&L Leisure continues to blend innovation with heart, embracing digital personalisation, storytelling, and immersive experiences that showcase Namibia as one of the world’s most soulful destinations for both leisure and business travellers.
