Discover Sossusvlei Lodge

Sossusvlei Lodge is situated in the world's oldest desert, the Namib. The entrance gate to Sossusvlei and Sesriem Canyon is nearby and all manner of activities are available from the Sossusvlei Lodge Adventure Centre. The area in which the lodge is set is typical of the surroundings, with small trees, shrubs and grasses set against rocky outcrops and red sand.

Blending seamlessly with its backdrop, the accommodation at Sossusvlei Lodge is spacious and comfortable. There are 51 rooms on offer, all of which sit under charming canvas and are enclosed by a low stone wall. The surrounding area is filled with plenty to do with the Sossusvlei Lodge Adventure Centre providing a range of activities to keep you busy. Explore the desert-scape with quad biking or hot air ballooning, the latter boasting unforgettable views as the sun rises over the red dunes. Facilities at the lodge are very good, with a restaurant and bar, a welcome swimming pool and the Acacia Beer Garden.
