Nestled in the heart of the expansive 12,715-hectare (31,419-acre) &Beyond Sossusvlei Private Desert Reserve in Namibia, Sossusvlei Desert Lodge offers an other-worldly blend of tranquility and luxury. Here, you’ll be fully immersed, gazing upon the clearest starry night sky you’ve ever witnessed.

Sossusvlei Desert Lodge features twelve stunning stone and glass suites, each offering panoramic views, a private plunge pool, cozy fireplace, and a skylight above each bed for stargazing, making for a secluded retreat to connect with nature.
Amazingly, the shared spaces are just as captivating. The split-level guest area features a vintage walk-in cellar, interactive kitchen, pool, gym, and a wellness centre—each looking out over stunning, unobstructed views of the desert.

Sustainability is at the heart of Sossusvlei Desert Lodge, where the extreme climate is harnessed to create eco-friendly solutions. Key initiatives include an optimised roof design for solar energy, solar-powered hot water system, grey water recycling system, rainwater harvesting tank (also solar-powered), and pool covers designed to minimise water evaporation. These initiatives and the materials used to build the lodge have resulted in minimal environmental impact.
