Fodor's Expert Review Protea Hotel by Marriott Pelican Bay
Esplanade Park, Walvis Bay, Erongo, Namibia
This centrally located establishment is right on the water's edge and along the palm-lined promenade, which means you can look out onto the Walvis Bay Lagoon from all of the rooms (but the junior suite) and the restaurant. There is a short pier just in front of the hotel, which makes for a great spot to watch or photograph the resident flamingos and pelicans.
PROS
- family-friendly, with connecting rooms
- safe and secure, complimentary parking
- prime location with lagoon-facing rooms that have wooden decks
CONS
- rooms and bathrooms could do with a soft refurb
- restaurant and bar are outside the main hotel building
