Nestled on a private 27,000-hectare reserve bordering the Namib-Naukluft National Park, this exclusive lodge offers the closest access to Sossusvlei’s iconic red dunes and surreal desert landscapes. Guests can expect unforgettable adventures—from hot air balloon rides over the Namib Sand Sea to guided desert excursions and stargazing under pristine night skies.
Kulala Desert Lodge offers a warm, down-to-earth retreat perfect for families, groups, and self-drive adventurers, with 21 comfortable canvas-and-thatch rooms—each featuring a rooftop for unforgettable sleep-outs under Namibia’s famously clear night skies. Once degraded farmland, the surrounding 27,000-hectare Kulala Wilderness Reserve has been successfully rehabilitated by Wilderness since 1996, now teeming with indigenous wildlife and dramatic desert landscapes. Guests enjoy exclusive early access to Sossusvlei via a private gate, with activities ranging from hiking Sesriem Canyon and the Tsauchab River Trail to soaring above the Namib Sand Sea by hot air balloon. Culinary experiences are equally memorable—start with a champagne breakfast after ballooning, enjoy bush lunches in dry riverbeds or pizzas by the pool, sip sundowners as the dunes glow at sunset, and dine under the stars surrounded by newfound friends.
