Little Kulala

Sesriem/Sossusvlei, Namibia

With its red clay walls and hidden chalets, Little Kulala blends into the colours of the Namib Desert. You couldn’t ask for a more dramatic setting, mountains providing a backdrop and dunes cascading into the distance.

Dip beneath the harmonious exterior and the chalets are far more contemporary than you’d expect. There’s air conditioning, a private plunge pool and deck, plus an open-air lounge area. Namibia’s desert skies are legendary and each chalet has a rooftop terrace where you can sleep beneath the stars. If you’re not feeling that adventurous then the open-air dining area also has indulgent views.

The lodge has its own national park entrance gate so you can bypass the crowds and enter Namib-Naukluft as early as possible, maximising the beautiful morning light. On a full day you’ll spend the morning at Sossuvlei and Sesriem, followed by an afternoon walking or driving around Kulala’s own reserve. You can take a guide, or get their recommendations for the perfect sunset-from-a-dune spot.

You’ll need to stay another night to fit in an optional hot-air balloon flight. This is a camp that evokes the enormity and seclusion of the Namibian desert, so you might also want an additional night to savour the solitude of Little Kulala.
