Namib Desert Lodge

Fantastic overnight stay here. We stayed on our way back to Windhoek from Sossusvlei. It’s about 45 minutes’ drive to Sossusvlei so very conveniently located. The room was nice and the food for dinner and breakfast was very delicious. Staff were very friendly too. The grounds are incredibly beautiful and situated under a very scenic cliff base so the views are very pleasant. The only slight problem was the shower was quite cold no matter what we did, but other than that we had a good time here. The wifi was particularly good and fast for Namibia. They said it was only available in the restaurant and reception (as is normal for every hotel in Sossusvlei/Etosha) but we were able to connect to it even from our room 67 which was quite far from there. I would recommend a stay here.

The Lodge is situated in a scenic area whereby we are able to see the red desert in a short drive. On the way to the red desert, we could see oryx as well. I went in May, the dry season that allows me to see the milky way just some walking distrance from the lodge. It's one of the most unforgettable lodges I have stayed in. Thanks to the multiple excursions arranged by the lodge, I get to make a number of friends there. We find out that we become friends after joining 2 activities together, and hence we decide to join the third one. The guides from the hotel are super knowledgeable and caring. All staff in the hotel are friendly and helpful. With everyone's effort, the lodge is quite well maintained.

I absolutely enjoyed my short stay at Namib Desert Lodge

We arrived in the afternoon and there were oryx right around the lodges. We took a short hike and it was right up against the big rocks. Saw sociable weaver's nest nearby. Good place for star gazing. The sundowner driver was great. The sunset was beautiful. With the mountain in the backdrop, the landscape is breathtaking. Big room, clean. Good night sleep. Dinner buffer is pretty good as well. Highly recommended
