Kulala Desert Lodge (5 )
(Namib Naukluft Park-Namibia)

Location:

Situated on the 21,000 hectare Kulala Wilderness Reserve, bordering the Namib Naukluft Park, Kulala Desert Lodge lies in the heart of the Namib. It offers magnificent views of the famous red dunes of Sossusvlei as well as spectacular mountain scenery and vast open plains.

Accommodation:

Kulala has twelve thatched and canvas chalets or Kulalas (Swahili for "resting place") with en suite bathrooms and showers. They are set on wooden platforms to provide maximum airflow. Mattresses can be moved to the rooftop to sleep under the stars on a private stargazing platform on top of the room; a popular option with outdoor enthusiasts on sultry summer nights.

The main lodge has a lounge, bar, dining area and plunge pool. The verandah overlooks a waterhole and provides the perfect location to view and photograph the desert sunset.

Game Viewing / Activities:

Early morning guided game drives to the spectacular dunes are via a private gate on the Tsauchab River. Game drives and walks are also offered on the private reserve with incredible scenery, desert game and smaller desert~adapted fauna and flora.

Spotlit night~drives are a highlight.

Early morning ballooning, is another option offered, weather permitting. The 60 minute balloon safari offers a truly unique experience of soaring silently above the magnificent desert sand dunes and and ending off with a champagne breakfast served at the landing site.
