O&L leisure celebrates 2nd anniversary

Mokuti Lodge

Two years ago, in July 2012 the Ohlthaver & List (O&L) Group of Companies centralized the management of their hospitality holdings and brought to life O&L Leisure Hotels & Lodges as owners and managers of Mokuti Etosha Lodge and Midgard Country Estate.

“In 2012 we created our own team of hospitality professionals and launched the O&L Leisure Brand on the foundations of O&L’s proud heritage as an authentic, Namibian company, with an established history since 1919.  The O&L Leisure brand represents what Namibian hospitality stands for: warm-hearted, honest and down-to-earth ‘hosts’ who are proud of our country, traditions and diverse cultural groups Sven Thieme, executive chairman of the O&L Group said on Monday.

According to the managing director of O&L Leisure, Bruce Hutchison re-positioning the two properties – Midgard Country Estate and Mokuti Etosha Lodge – was a challenging yet exciting exercise.

O&L Leisure: True Namibian Hospitality

Owned by the Ohlthaver & List Group, which was founded in 1919, O&L Leisure Hotels & Lodges is a proudly Namibian hospitality company. O&L Leisure is committed to offering our guests a unique, genuine sense-of-place experience. 

It’s our warm, down-to-earth nature, and love for our country, that turns staying at our resorts into an unparalleled experience. 

In keeping with local Oshiwambo customs, if I was standing before you right now, as a sign of respect, I’d support my right elbow with my left hand as I shook yours – because that’s how we do things here, with honest sincerity, in true Namibian style.

To achieve this aim we are dedicated to developing passionate team members to host all visitors as if they were their own guests and to constantly enhance their skills and knowledge in the Hotel Industry.

O&L Leisure Hotels & Lodges are the owners and managers of Mokuti Etosha Lodge and Midgard Country Estate. We are currently developing the Strand Hotel Swakopmund scheduled to open early in 2015 and are dedicated to developing further opportunities in line with our total comittment to the Hospitality Industry in Namibia.
