Sossusvlei Lodge

Great location, right next to the park entrance. Rooms were nicely done and lovely views out to the desert. Bonus to see animals coming through the lodge and at waterhole Negatives, it has a lot of coach parties that nominate breakfast and dinner. The service was not so good (particularly bar staff) as in other lodges around Namibia, this maybe related to the large groups.

The chalets are situated amongst lovely grounds and our one was right on the edge of the dessert with lovely views not impeded by other chalets. The food was plentiful, buffet, with freshly cooked meat of your choice. I did hear one other guest say he felt intimidated by the large queues and I could understand what he meant as there were many many guests. The rooms were generous with a marvellous bathroom and the staff polite and friendly

The location and ambiance of this lodge are perfectly suited for the red desert sand dunes. It blended well with the nature and has easy access to Sossuvlei desert area. The real attraction is the dessert with Dune 45 and the ability to be close to nature. We enjoyed the observation deck, the sundowner deck and the outdoor dinner under the stars. The hotel can arrange tours and activities. We chose to take the plane ride over the desert and highly recommend that to get the most amazing perspective over how vast, red and gorgeous the Namib desert is.

The Lodge is just outside the Main Gate for the dunes, so very convenient for an early start. Our chalet was lovely, very spacious and comfortable. The evening buffet dinner, served outside, was excellent. We enjoyed our stay. Highly recommended.

During my recent stay in the Sossusvlei area I visited Sossusvlei Lodge for dinner and can highly recommend it. Before heading to the restaurant we grabbed some sundowners at the bar which was definitely the right choice. The drinks paired with the beautiful Namib desert and the firepits being lit as the sun started setting really set the mood for the evening. Dinner was a 3-course buffet featuring a surprising variety of fresh, local ingredients, with highlights like game meat options. When you consider the variety of the buffet and the impressive selection of wines, it's amazing how Sossusvlei Lodge manages to deliver such quality in the heart of the Namib. To top it all off, our waiter, was attentive and friendly making the evening even more enjoyable, and our table looking out onto the desert is truly what fairy tales are made of. If you're looking for a memorable dining experience in the Sossusvlei area, then Sossusvlei Lodge is a must-visit. A huge shout out to New African Safaris for arranging this once-in-a-lifetime experience!
