Set against the old sand dunes, Namib Desert Lodge is in a good location to explore the area. It is just 60 km north of Sesriem, the entrance to Sossusvlei.
The lodge is surrounded by palm trees and has a large veranda where guests can relax and enjoy the views while having drinks from the fully stocked bar. The restaurant serves buffet-style breakfast and dinner, and a small selection of light lunches is available on request. The two clear pools offer a welcome break from the desert heat.
Built at the base of old fossil dunes, Namib Desert Lodge adds to the beauty of the red sand landscape. Let yourself be surprised. A drive at sunset or early morning across the red dunes is an amazing way to see the shapes in the sand.
As the sun lights up the sand, you see soft dunes around you, a green line of river trees in the distance, and blue-purple mountains beyond. The sand on top of the dunes starts to glow with a deep sienna color.
These creative views could easily inspire someone like Tolkien. Namib Desert Lodge, one of the Sossusvlei lodges, has a special character of its own.
Enjoy the relaxed and friendly atmosphere while eating in the comfortable restaurant, walking on paths into the dunes, watching gemsbok drink at the waterhole, or cooling off in the pool. The lodge is warm and simple—a good place to explore, discover, and enjoy.
For a night among the dunes, Dune Star Camp offers the full desert experience. Deep in the Namib Desert, this clean and simple retreat offers a quiet escape.
The dining area has a large wooden deck with great views of the surroundings. The wide wooden cabins have beds with wheels, so guests can sleep outside under the stars. Feel refreshed for the journey ahead and filled with the quiet beauty of the desert.
Enjoy the peace at Namib Desert Lodge, 60 kilometers from the busy Sesriem area. There is space for everyone, making it a good choice for families, groups, and solo travelers. A stay in the Namib Desert completes any trip to Namibia.
