There was nothing not to like starting from heart-warming reception, and throughout our stay during which we were the only couple in the property, who were kindly assisted by some 20 staff members.
This was just our luck to visit the place on weekdays and during lower season, thus we had an absolute privacy. Only us and nature!
The chalets, restaurant, viewing terraces, and the pools areas were spotlessly clean, well designed, and professionally served.
Great experience!

We were very lucky to view bat-eared foxes during sunset and giraffes during sunrise.

I never seen anything like this. We spent the best two nights in this lodge. Oryxes, birds, jackals walking around. Sunsets and sunrises with the vest views. Rooms are separate buildings, super clean, like new. Spacious. The stuff is great. Dinner is delicious. Truly amazing place!

I can’t say enough good things about the property. Staff was the absolute best. Room and view was perfect, not to mention you have the closest access to get into the park in the morning, minus private entrance. Food was legit. What else do you need.

We stayed at the Desert Camp, not far from the park entrance gate. It was an easy drive to the park, and the 60km of wonderful tarred road to the 2 wheel drive car park. This gives access to Dig Daddy dune and Deadvlei.
From here the park vehicle took us to Big Momma dune, and also goes to Hidden Vlei. All very easy.
Dune 45 is 45 km along the road. The bus cost 180 Namibian dollars in October 2023. Wear runners to climb the dunes and walk to Deadvlei. Har, sunglasses and water are essential. We ate at the restaurant inside the park gate. Good and affordable. We bought our water at the shop there. Breakfast at the Sossusvlei Lodge was good too.
I would recommend paying extra for tyre and glass insurance when picking up your rental car. Prior to coming to Sesriem, we had a flat tyre far from anywhere and Hertz directed us to a lodge with tyre repair services. We had to go on to Outjo to get the fixed tyre replaced, but the insurance made it less of a concern.

Best place to experience the oldest desert on earth.
Best place to experience the oldest desert on earth. Wonderful place to spend time with. At least you need to stay 1 night inside park to make sure that you can go to Deadvlei early in the moring. Take photos with shade of light. Hiking at Daddy dune in the morning and slide down to deadvlei.

Sesriem is an oasis in the desert and everything is well organized but basic. Prepare well before you go. The cleanliness of the entire area is remarkable. The Namibian people are very friendly and helpful - don't be shy to ask for advice.

I loved the dunes, but we should have got there a bit earlier in the day for the best photographic opportunities. We stayed at We Kebi Lodge which was exceptional value for money, and I would have loved to stay there for a longer stay.

The road in from Mariental (273Km) and out to Walvis Bay (315 Km) were sand/gravel, and in a poor shape for large portions. Other than that it was a great stay. 2 nights should be a minimum with at least one day to frolic in the dunes.

Accommodation in and around Sesriem and Sossusvlei is slightly on the expensive side for locals and South Africans. However, it is one of those things that you have to see and experience should you be able to travel the gravel roads of this vast country.
The meals at the hotel are really wonderful. There is variety which is unusual for Namibia -- we had a vegan in our team and he ate really well at this hotel. The view of the desert from the al fresco dining area and the bar is really special and I liked the layout of the tent rooms. Overall, this place gives you a real feeling of being in the desert. It was a bonus point that the place is not far from the dune park and Dead Vlei.
It was the best hotel staff on our Namibia round trip !!!! Attentive, helpful, but also humorous. Our companion for the morning and dinner would probably be the employee of the year. Many thanks. The houses are very clean and the grounds well maintained. The way to the entrance of the national park is a bit distant, but for that the wild animals graze right outside the front door.
The place was perfectly located. Outside of Sesriem, about 5min drive from the national park gates. No light contamination around so perfect for stargazing. Also the sunset and sunrise were amazing. The lodge is well managed and organized. We received a pdf form to fill in our food order for the night and before we arrived at 6pm the order was already waiting for us in the fridge.
This was a groovy little hotel, really liked our cabin. It was quite large, the bed was comfy and the shower was huge.
Really good location, right near the park gate. The staff was fantastic, helped us make all our reservations, even helped us with our itinerary for our days there (fixed our itinerary for us, should I say lol).
There is also a pool and bar area to hang out at.
Great place to stay if you are visiting Sesriem. The rooms are simple but very clean and comfortable to accommodate a family with kids.
The staff is excellent and go above and beyond to make sure you have a great stay (kudos specially to Paul on this).
Food is also very good and quality and the kitchen staff make sure all your dietary requirements are considered.
+ Our room/cottage was very spacious
+ Area outside of our room was just for us, well equipped for BBQ.
+ We can imagine spending multiple days here
+ Nearby Sossusvlei Lodge offers great adventures (helicopter flight, trips...)
+ Sossusvlei Lodge also covers meals for guests. Everything is smoothly connected. We just had to state our room number
What a fantastic experience that was. You are treated like a king from start to finish. The Hotel Manager has created a superb atmosphere with all the staff. The facilities are greatly located.
I can only highly spoke of everyone looking after us during our stay/
A special thank you to our guide Paolo who made our desert tour extraordinary.
This hotel is the best hotel I've ever stayed. Staffs were really kind and food was amazing. Near water holes, you can see oryx and it's really lovely. The hotel was very clean. We did quad bike tour to see sunrise. The senery was so beautiful and we made a good memory. If I travel to Namibia, I definitely choose this hotel again.
We were looking for a location close to the Sossusvlei park gate, and this was both close and affordable (relatively speaking for the area). It turned out to be highly scenic as well, with a backdrop of rocks, a nice pool, and an inviting bar. Meals at the Sossusvlei Lodge were a plus -- excellent dinner and a lunch basket.
Amazing lodge and overall experience. Staff is super friendly, food is amazing, lodge is very well designed and the experiences on offer are worth it. Great location within Sesriem area as well, close to the park gates. Would recommend this lodge for those looking for the best experience in Sesriem area.
The location and sunset is awesome ! Hermann who is doing the tour is the perfect person to go with at the dunes, sesriem and deadvlei ! we did as well a game drive wirh hermann is was superbe ! The location is great, staff very smilly and friendly !
Very clean as well ! and great diner !
Everything was perfect. From check in to check out the service and staff were wonderful. Lovely view from the room, comfortable, peaceful, great food and the Gemsbok. 40 mins drive to Sesriem gate. Well worth it to see the dunes. Don't forget Deadvlie and Sesriem Canyon.
The staff went out of their way to provide a good experience. Quaint and interesting decorations on the property. Rooms were very private. Food excellent. We were provided with a brunch packet so that we could leave very early to drive to Sesriem for the day.
Very lovely staff. Did its best whilst the hotel was short of water during two days
Great rooms with an amazing vue
Foods was OK
Surely a very good place to stay to discover the dunes around
nicely designed, inside the park, close to its own small dune, easy to drive to Sesriem canyon and Namib sky balloon and the entire staff was very friendly and provides amazing services
the architecture of the main lodge, the evening buffet and hospitality that came with it, the good location inside the park and ease to get to Sesriem and Sossus.
