Please note: Our review of this property has not yet been added. Watch this space. We're working on it.

As a tailor-made tour operator, we often have to get creative when designing your perfect itinerary.

For example, your travel consultant might add this property to your itinerary if:

Location is a significant factor
It offers a unique feature that will enhance your experience
This is a last-minute booking and room availability is limited
Cost is a factor and you'd rather splash out on another part of your trip
This is a newly opened or refurbished property that we have not inspected yet

When designing your custom itinerary we have much to consider not least of which is the value proposition of every product and service included in your quote. In all cases we strive to give you the best experience possible within your budget so please feel free to ask your travel consultant to share their reasons for including this property in your itinerary.

Here is a different side to the Namib Desert and one which is just as fascinating as the popular dunes of Sossusvlei. The Naukluft Mountains loom in the east and there are scenic drives through the mountain passes up the escarpment.

The lodge has 23 double rooms and two family rooms. All have en suite bathrooms, twin or double beds and they face a courtyard padded with grass and filled with an enormous swimming pool. There is a large patch of sand outside that is endearingly referred to as a campsite. You'll need to time your arrival and departure according to the meal times which are observed with monastic commitment.

The lodge forms one third of the town. The other two thirds are taken up by a small fuel station and a quirky general dealer who does a roaring trade in fresh-baked bread, paraffin oil and souvenirs.
