About The Hotel

This tiny oasis of luxury is nestled in the heart of the deserted Kaokoland, ensuring a rare tranquil experience. The dramatic earth-coloured architecture perfectly suits the epic landscape. The magnificent lodge sits atop the banks of the Hoarusib Riverbed and is an impeccably appointed base for your adventures, which include desert game drives with local guides, tracking black rhinos on foot, exploring the phenomenal clay castles and sipping sundowners as the sun sets over the dunes.

Encounter desert-adapted elephants, giraffes and lions - and meet local tribes people. Exclusive lodge has just seven well-appointed cabins, with four-poster beds and private terraces. Enjoy delicious food and drink in extraordinary locations: brunch in the bush, sundowners on the dunes or picnic lunch in the Hoarusib Valley.
