Our stay at Namib Naukluft Lodge was truly one of the highlights of our Namibia adventure and a place we will remember for years to come. The location is simply spectacular. Surrounded by vast open plains, endless horizons and the raw beauty of the Namibian landscape, the lodge offers an experience that feels both peaceful and awe-inspiring. Waking up each morning to such breathtaking scenery and watching the colours of the landscape change throughout the day was unforgettable. What made our stay even more special was the incredible hospitality. Every member of staff was warm, welcoming and genuinely caring. They went out of their way to make our family comfortable, and nothing ever seemed too much trouble. As vegetarians, we are often prepared to compromise when travelling in remote locations. What we did not expect was to be treated to an outstanding four-course vegetarian dinner every evening. The food was simply mind-blowing. Each meal was thoughtfully prepared, beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. It was one of the biggest surprises of our trip and something we looked forward to every day. The care and effort the chefs put into creating such wonderful vegetarian meals did not go unnoticed and was greatly appreciated. The lodge strikes the perfect balance between comfort and authenticity. Sitting outside surrounded by silence, nature and endless open space was one of the most peaceful experiences we have ever had. Namibia is a beautiful country, but what touched us most was the kindness of its people. Everywhere we travelled, we encountered warmth, humility and genuine hospitality, and the team at Namib Naukluft Lodge embodied those qualities perfectly. Thank you for giving our family such wonderful memories. We arrived as guests and left with a deep appreciation for this special place and the amazing people who made our stay so memorable.

“Base in Namib desert”

Comfortable base in desert, enjoyed pool, breakfasts good, good bird viewing, remarkable area.

“The location of the lodge is beautiful”

The food was very good and we enjoyed dinner outside

Everything was fantastic, the dinners were delicious, the staff were kind and very helpful, plus the organisation of the excursions was simply great! Would highly recommend this place to anyone who's planning on visiting Sossusvlei.

“Very recommended for stopover, very charming, very good people, tasty food, bit pricey”

Beutiful setting, very kind helpful staff

“Terrific place en route to the Sossusvlei”

The place is completely hidden from the road, after a short drive you discover this oasis. Cars can be parked under a roof, and the rooms and bathrooms are a bit spartan but very okay. The staff is great! On the first night we joined a bbq under the stars in a secluded area, the second night we had a fixed dinner which was also very good. The pool area is super. Sunsets were wonderfull. Don’t forget to stop at the bakery in Solitaire. There sell a lot more then their apple pie!

“Beautiful sunsets, delicious dinner”

Beautiful location, super friendly staff, our room could have been more modern but we were told others had been modernisef

“An oasis in the desert”

Absolutely beautiful location with our rooms, pool and breakfast having fantastic views over the desert. The photos don’t do it justice. Everyone was so welcoming and the location was great to drive from Windhoek and close enough to get up early and head to Sousselvlei for a sunrise walk. Amazing stars at night and a lovely 4 course meal for supper. Thank you for our lovely stay.

“Absolutely stunning stay in the desert”

Views, views and more views. The staff were warm and welcoming and the 4 course dinner spectacular and a treat.

“Great experience, loved BBQ, staff fantastic and very friendly. Just property and rooms a bit dated.”

Pool and relaxing area! Views and location

“Don’t hesitate to book!”

Amazing location, lodge was fantastic. Cannot fault this lodge in any way - staff were exceptional, rooms were large and well equipped, breakfast and dinners were amazing. Best lodge we stayed in the whole of our Namibia trip.

“Excellent and wish we had booked for a longer stay,”

We had a breakfast pack for us as we left very early in the morning, the breakfast was great!

“Good lodge fairly close to Sossusvlei in truely awesome desert setting. A bit overpriced.”

Awesome setting that is really hard to beat. The design of the place integrated into a rocky desert is just perfect. Staff is friendly and helpful. Dinner was really very good. Packed (but a bit minimalistic) breakfast available if you want to leave early for Sossusvlei.

“Authentic and relaxing lodge”

Lodge with the most beautiful sunset seen in Namibia. The room has a classic style, spacious and with animals that approach near the lodge. There is also an artificial waterhole with a post for animal sighting. The dinner both inside and outside was fantastic. Highly recommended.

The place is exceptional, the location is the best we experienced in this part of Namibia and this is the best value for money. The dinner in the boma was the best buffet meal we have had compared to other larger and much more expensive lodges! I highly recommend this place. The website does not do this place justice, such a wonderful surprise, thoroughly enjoyed it!

The location is very beautiful. The dinner was one of the best we had in Namibia.

“A Beautiful, great & good stay. A must visit in Sesriem.”

The property was in Beautiful & tranquil setting.The swimmingpool was perfectly situated with exceptional view of the landscape. Perfect opportunity to connect with nature and relax. The overall design of the property and location fitted the surrounding Nature. The concept and design was perfect. It all matched well. I had a great stay. The tours/excursions available at the property are great. I did all of them. They were beautiful and worth it. A must do for all. I spent many days there, and I had a great time.

Amazingly friendly, becoming a part of the family, comfortable room, great food, extraordinary location
