History

History of Casa Blanca boutique hotel

The original house was built in 1970 by pioneer game ranger Mr. Schultz in the style of Fort Namutoni, one of Namibia´s historic monuments located in Etosha National Park. He also lovingly created the indigenous garden, where beautiful old trees today spend welcoming shade.

The house changed hands several times and in 1999 Elke & Peter Young became the proud owners of a decrepit old castle. Peter immediately saw what needed to be done, whilst Elke fell in love with the incredible potential of the property and house. They set out to extensively renovate the building and a year later a new old castle with white walls, Spanish­style wrought iron, balustrades, arched windows and terracotta tiles opened its gates for guests.

Today Casa Blanca Hotel is well known for its elegant and relaxed atmosphere - complemented by excellent service. Sumptuous breakfasts and romantic patio dinners at sunset with a choice of selected Cape wines can be enjoyed in our homely restaurant.
