Nestles between the cold Atlantic Ocean and the dry Namib Desert, Lüderitz was the first German settlement in Namibia and the start of the South African diamond industry in 1908. The town was named after Adolf Lüderitz, a German tobacco merchant, who persuaded Bismarck to place the territory under German occupation in 1884. There is a fine collection of graceful German colonial architecture. As long ago as 1488 the Portuguese navigator, Bartlolmeo Dias, erected a stone cross Padrao on a nearby headland. The original has weathered away and has been replaced by a replica.

Lüderitz is the centre of Namibia's crayfishing industry and has all the attractions of a seaside resort with lovely views and the ghost town of Kolmanskop. There are 15 comfortable and spacious rooms on offer. There are 11 double rooms and 4 family units. All these rooms are en-suite.
