Wolwedans Desert Lodge

Discover Wolwedans Desert Lodge

Surrounded by endless desert plains and rocky mountains, Wolwedans Desert Lodge is an incredible escape from the bustle of everyday life. Situated within the private NamibRand Nature Reserve, in the world's oldest desert, the Namib, expect incredible desert vistas.

Perched on a series of wooden decks, the main lodge offers plenty of space to relax or connect with fellow travellers. From cozy lounges and sundowner decks to a bar, tea deck, library, and two dining areas, every corner invites you to soak in the tranquil desert atmosphere. The lodge’s 10 tented rooms are carefully positioned to showcase sweeping desert views, with each one featuring a private veranda with its own chiller—a perfect way to cool off after a day exploring the dunes.

Special offer: Book for 4 nights and only pay for 3 nights. This offer is valid until 30 December 2025. Terms and conditions apply.
