ECO-MMODATION

Sossusvlei Desert Lodge

Sustainability and uncompromised luxury go hand in hand at Sossusvlei. Set deep within the world’s oldest living desert, amidst an ocean of dunes and space-like landscapes. The utter tranquility and clarity of light makes the night skies heavenly.

SUSTAINABLE CREDENTIALS

  • Each self-sustaining suite has enough solar panels to produce enough energy to power their own electricity and air-con.
  • Sustainable architecture ensured little impact on the land was made and a full recovery program is in place following the build.
  • For over 15 years the lodge has been supporting a feeding programme for local primary school children.
  • Ingenious roof design provides optimal shade plus maximum space for solar panels.
  • Outdoor rain showers are sustainably supported by the lodge’s water recycling systems.
  • Clever use of natural elements – rock, stone & sand to create spaces for guests and give them an ever-present sense of place.

Ten beautifully appointed stone and glass suites, spread out along the curve of the escarpment, open onto extraordinary desert views. Each suite is well equipped with private plunge pools and verandas. A large retractable skylight above the bed and an ensuite bathroom with glass-encased rain shower offering 180 degree views of the ancient desert are stand out incredible.

The small specialist-led team will put together itineraries for unforgettable days – walk across ancient sands without seeing another soul, enjoy a castaway picnic or take to the sky in a helicopter or hot air balloon. Return to the lodge as you join the resident astronomer for a night looking into the Milky Way and restore your energy and love of our magnificent planet.

BWW LOVES IT BECAUSE…

  • Two bedroomed Star Dune Suite is ideal for families.
