Previously known as Wolwedans Dunes Lodge, Desert Lodge is positioned in one of the most enviable locations that the NamibRand has to offer, Desert Lodge has a stunning outlook. Think vast orange dunes, mountains, rolling skies and, well, emptiness…. This magnificent vista is at the heart of the lodge, and all the rooms and guest areas are perfectly positioned to make the most of the impressive surroundings.
The lodge reflects the ambience of a tented camp but provides the comfort and protection of a permanent building. From the spacious main areas to the tented rooms, there are plenty of spaces to connect with fellow guests, enjoy some quiet time, or to simply relax and sink into the ‘Wolwedans Way.’
Desert Lodge is perched on top of a dune plateau, overlooking panoramic vistas in all directions and capturing the beauty of the desert in a most memorable way. Building style is a combination of wooden structures and canvas blinds, opening up to the desert beyond.
The lodge reflects the ambience of a tented camp, but provides the comfort and protection of a permanent building. Each of the nine spacious chalets with en-suite bathrooms sports a private verandah, which connects you to vast stretches of untouched sand. Sleeping with your canvas blinds open is just like sleeping under the stars.
The main complex consists of two lounges, a number of sundowner decks, a fireplace, a tea deck, a library, the wine cellar and two dining rooms.
All communal areas of the lodge open out onto decks with superb views.
