Von der herzlichen Begrüßung bei der Ankunft, den hervorragenden Drives mit tollem Guide bis zu der sehr geschmackvollen Einrichtung der Lodge hat alles gespasst! Das Essen war sehr lecker und schön präsentiert und die vorab gebuchten Game-Drives zum Sundowner und ins Sossusvlei (Tagestour) waren einstimmig von uns (7 Personen) als fantastisch empfunden worden! Bitte unbedingt machen denn man erfährt so vieles fernab der üblichen Touristen-Hotspots…Diese Lodge war ein Höhepunkt unserer Tour!

We couldn’t have asked for a dreamier stay at Hoodia Desert Lodge. The hotel is truly stunning - the rooms are cosy and spacious with a great bed, the outdoor bath is so special, and the reception and restaurant area have great views of the incredible desert surrounds. The food was also AMAZING - breakfast every day was a feast, and we had amazing dinners with great vegetarian food for me. But the real highlight were the excursions - the sundowner and the Sossusvlei adventure. They were stunning and special and an extra shout out to the wonderful staff, especially Enos who gave us such a fantastic tour of the desert. Would absolutely recommend.

This is a beautiful lodge set at the base of a mountain, looking out across the plains toward other mountain ranges. From the exceptionally warm welcome where the staff wait outside to wave to you as you approach the lodge to the kind and heartfelt farewell, this is a lodge where the guest experience is the top priority. The food, wine, rooms and excursions are done to a very high standard and I have no hesitation in recommending it.

Expérience incroyable dans ce lodge où tout était plus que parfait ! C’est déjà sans doute le meilleur accueil que nous ayons eu de tout notre séjour en Namibie car très chaleureux ( sans être « forcé » ou scolaire ) avec plein d’attentions délicates du staff tout au long du séjour . Le lodge est beau et chaleureux également avec de très belles prestations et des chambres très confortables et accueillantes ! Et le TOP du TOP , ce sont les 2 prestations comprises dans le prix L’apéritif coucher du soleil est incroyable avec une table dressée juste pour vous , des bougies et des cocktails - devant un coucher de soleil mémorable : un moment tout simplement exceptionnel ! Et le safari une journée a Sossuslei avec un guide extraordinaire sera aussi un moment exceptionnel - sans oublier le déjeuner au milieu des dunes … Vraiment le Hoodia est le lodge que nous avons préféré de tout notre séjour ! Et le rapport qualité / prix est tout à fait bon !!!

Stunning out of the way lodge, 44kms from main road , with great accommodation, wonderful food and very friendly staff. Its a beautiful drive in , and if like us , you are coming up from the south take the D707 road . It lives up to its name of the most beautiful road in Namibia. Located by some cliffs and alongside a stream which was full of bird life. Welcomed at the lodge by a member of staff with warm towels, very welcome after a long duty drive. Over an iced tea we were given information on the lodge and its activities and taken on a guided tour : with its restaurant, bar, outside lounge areas and a swimming pool . The guest chalets are located either side of the main lodge and only a short walk away . Lovely large lodge with a great terrace to admire the view. En suite and a large outside bath , unfortunately during our stay the water was only luke warm ( not a problem as it was hot) and the water pressure was not great so couldn't really make use of a deep bath, Main restaurant offers a single choice of starter and dessert and a choice of meat or game for the main ( although they do offer vegetarian and chicken too) Wasn't fancy food basically meat and two veg but cooked well and tasted great. All staff we met were so friendly and helpful. In the evening our guide for the Sossusvlei Excursion came and introduced himself and explained the plan for the next day. We met for breakfast at 6am ( a good choice of hot and cold options) leaving at 6.30am reaching the gate at 7am. There was a short queue to get in , but you then drive to the main dune area. We had a wonderful guide Dion, who happily stopped to allow guests to take photos of the dunes or to point out wildlife on the way. First stop was at the dunes where we got a lesson in identifying tracks and pointing out the animals found there , we then had a lesson about Namibia, its history and tribes . Then some guests walked the big dunes , took them about 2 hours ending with a run down the dunes to the petrified forest, whilst we were dropped straight off at Deadvlei which is 1.5 kms walk from the car park. We had a couple of hours to wander around this incredible place , and took some stunning photographs. We were then picked up by our driver who took us to a beautiful location in the dunes where an Out Of Africa style lunch had been set up for us . the setting was perfect, and the lunch and wine delicious. From there we moved to the Seserim Canyon to walk around in the cool shade of the rocks , although some parts were still flooded after recent rains, but still amazing and a welcome break from the hot sun. Highly recommend you take this excursion it is so special, as is the lodge and especially the staff so warm and welcoming .It was nice to see so many females taken a lead role in managing the day to day running of the facilities. Made us smile on our final morning we had a discussion with one of the female members of staff about the tribes of Namibia, and she went running off to
