Going down South? Helmeringhausen Hotel the ideal place to stop!😊

Our Story I About Us I The Team

Meet the Helmeringhausen Family

Helmeringhausen isn't just The Home of The Best Apple Cake in Namibia — it's a family legacy! Our commitment to excellence is fueled by unity. Every member, from family to dedicated staff, plays a crucial role in our journey.

When the opportunity arose we left Lüderitz and bought Farm Helmeringhausen as well as the Hotel in June
2010. As a family, we took over Helmeringhausen with a great deal of love and excitement. Over the years it became more than just a hospitality project, it became our home. We want our guests to enjoy the Namibian farm lifestyle just as much as we do, in a way that is relaxed, tranquil and restorative.
Helmeringhausen Hotel is a family run establishment, personally managed by us The Basler Family.
We provide our guests with farm style accommodation, Namibian hospitality and a touch of German excellence, ensuring a memorable stay on Farm Helmeringhausen.
With a variety of rooms available, we assure finding the right living space for our guests. See our gallery for a visual impression of what we have to offer, and if you have any questions please feel free to contact us.
We are a family and together we run the business that was started by Björn and Katja in 2010.
Now 14 years later the Hotel has grown from strength to strength and Nikolai and Tazz came; the two of them are the junior management and young brains behind the operation of the Hotel and will make sure your stay is nothing short of magical.

Amidst the scenic beauty and wildlife of the Kuiseb Delta and Sandwich Harbour along the Namibian coastline, you will find the Shawnee shipwreck, a transport tug that ran aground in foul weather on 16 February 1976, about 24 kilometers north of Conception Bay.
Namibia's coastline is littered with shipwrecks that run aground as a result of a combination of thick fog, strong winds, heavy swells, and shifting sand.

Swakopmund Museum

Our museum deserves recognition and praise as it is well-presented and a very interesting representation of much that concerns Namibia and Swakopmund. It is praised by tourists and residents alike and thanks go to all concerned. This is not an easy role to manage in our town but we have a very committed Scientific Society which does excellent work for the benefit of all residents.
