This lodge, in the middle of the Namib Desert, quite literally in the middle of nowhere, has crafted itself as a stand-alone destination in Namibia. Guests travel the extra mile to get here because it is offers something special. During your stay you will find silence and serenity. The team arrange exquisite desert picnics, you can dine on fine food under a blanket of bright stars, quite literally on the edge of the desert (even your villa has a skylight above your bed so you can savour that phenomenal sight late at night) or recline at the sparkling swimming pool overlooking the breathtaking view.

The ten air-conditioned desert villas blend in seamlessly with the environment. The colour palette reflects the beiges, grey and stone to be found outside. Each room has a king size bed with crisp white linen and a dramatic skylight for night-time stargazing. Also to be enjoyed are a wood burning fireplace, writers desk, marble ensuite bathroom with additional outdoor shower, a spacious lounge with comfy couches and a private terrace overlooking the moonscape.
Sossusvlei Desert Lodge has created it’s own 'bush' observatory and has a powerful telescope so you can observe different constellations, moons and even the magellanic clouds.
To rest your weary muscles after all the adventure, book a massage with the in-house therapist.
If you're self-driving, getting to this lodge is quite the journey, but that's just as it should be in the Namib.
