Great location inside the national park, nice luxury tents, beautiful views of the night sky, very good food, super helpful and friendly staff, nice dinner.

Eric United States of America

located inside the external gate of the park (there are 2 gates, external and internal. the internal gate is where everyone lines up before sunrise to go into the park to Deadvlei), so it’s very well located. We were not expecting this level of luxury in the middle of seemingly nowhere in the dessert. the chalet is spacious, has AC, hot shower (though we had to call housekeeping to replace the heat tank twice). the food variety is great. service is very good. we had problem with our tire pump and the staff was able to help us which was a lifesaver. all meals are included except drinks. they gave a breakfast pack if you’re going to Deadvlei, and a lunch pack on day of departure. On our last night here the winds picked up 40 knots and we were SO glad we were not camping.

Great service and very helpful stuff. Being located in the park, we were able to get to the dunes before the crowds. We also loved the decor.

Sviatlana United States of America

nicely designed, inside the park, close to its own small dune, easy to drive to Sesriem canyon and Namib sky balloon and the entire staff was very friendly and provides amazing services

Beautiful lodge located inside the national park. Dead Valley team was very welcoming and helpful. Thank you for looking after us and we hope to be back soon!

Olga United States of America

Maybe the best place I stayed at in my entire 2 months in Africa. The staff is wonderful and goes out of their way to help you. Desiree and Gerta in the front, especially. Luxury tier comfort and style in the suites. Amazing stargazing at night. Honestly a steal at $280 USD a night. I regret not staying another night.

Edmund United States of America

Inside the park. Room/ tent is amazing. Bed is comfy. Service was great. They send you our with a packed breakfast if heading out early in the morning. Location is beautiful... Inside the park.

Brian United States of America
