No, you are not on Mars, you are right here in Namibia in the Gondwana Park. Roughly 35 km away from, well, anything, you will find your own desert pod. If you stay here, you will be the only ones, as this single pod is fit for just you and your partner. Imagine all the privacy when people can only reach you via radio.
This luxury pod is modern and sleek with a king-sized bed and an en-suite shower. Considering it is just the two of you, everything is open-planned. The bedroom, lounge and kitchen all flow together with an extended balcony leading to your private pool. There is WiFi, but why would you need it when you are surrounded by such a vast view and an endless peace and quiet?
The fully-equipped kitchen will be stocked with everything according to your dietary needs and meals are pre-arranged and prepared. You really don’t need to worry about a thing. Make use of the kitchen, patio and braai area at leisure and DIY it. Grab a few glasses and take your complimentary wine out onto the deck for that incredible sunset. You don't have to share it with anyone. (The sunset that is, sharing the wine is optional).
If at any moment you feel you need a bit more adventure, pick up your radio, signal the host and arrange a scenic drive. These drives can take place in the morning or later for sundowners, you can even stretch it out a bit and go on a Sossusvlei excursion. If you feel like taking over the steering wheel you can also go for a guided E-bike tour. Seriem is only 60km away. It is a trip worth making to witness the red landscape of Sossusvlei you see on all the postcards.
Go for a morning or sundowner drive. If you want to you can go a bit further and explore the gigantic sand dunes of the Sossusvlei area. For something a little more active, try the E-bike guided tours or one of the hiking trails.
If you wish only to relax in the privacy of your private pool, then do that. There will be other destinations that beg an adventure. Here the adventure is being on your own in pure tranquility.
