Situated in the private 37,000-hectare Kulala Wilderness Reserve, this luxurious desert retreat consists of 11 thatched, climate-controlled kulalas (meaning 'to sleep'), which merge impeccably into the timeless landscape,
Kulalas are equipped with both indoor and outdoor showers, exquisite fittings and fixtures, and innovative bleached decks. Each has its own plunge pool and a rooftop skybed for romantic stargazing. The elegant lounge and dining areas use neutral colours, varied textures and natural light inspired by the soothing pastel tones of the desert. There is also a library, wine cellar and boutique.
The lodge is situated in an ideal location, bordering the Namib Naukluft Park. Activities begin with an early morning drive via a private gate on the Tsauchab River into the spectacular towering dunes of Sossusvlei and Sesriem. Guided drives and wildlife walks - including the Black Mountain Trail and a scorpion walk - on the private reserve reveal incredible scenery and desert-adapted flora and fauna. The sundowner drive is the most scenic of all.
