Details

As compelling as it is strikingly beautiful, the desert lodge offers a peaceful perspective on refined living. It lies near the iconic dunes of Sossusvlei in north-east Namibia, framed by the dramatic backdrop of ancient landscapes and captivatingly clear skies.

 

Floor-to-ceiling glass windows, private verandas and plunge pools are just some of the luxurious touches that define each of the ten suites and the two-bedroom Star Dune Suite. All enjoy views of the desert and are finished with retractable skylights above the beds, bringing the sky within.

 

The lodge’s signature suite, the Star Dune Suite, offers even greater seclusion and comprises two spacious en-suite bedrooms linked by modern living spaces and a dining room.

 

Across the expansive grounds of the lodge, wellness is a discreet focal point. The lodge is equipped with a treatment space offering restorative therapies, alongside a gym and a sleek outdoor swimming pool.

 

Dining is elegant yet unpretentious, in keeping with the lodge’s theme, and is centred around an interactive kitchen that gives guests the chance to engage with chefs and enjoy a personalised dining experience.

 

To further enhance the experience, a highly curated selection of activities has been designed for each stay, ranging from guided walks and hiking to stargazing, as well as additional experiences such as hot-air ballooning and helicopter excursions.
