The Desert Grace

Graceful spaces and gracious hospitality imbue this modern lodge with its elegance of yesteryear, spirited character and refreshingly stylish interior.

This is the first of Gondwana's lodges to be entirely constructed using sandbags instead of bricks. Not only does this have a positive outcome for the environment, it also makes the 24 rooms on the lodge cooler and very well insulated. As you enter the reception area you are greeted by lavish finishes and quirky character. Inspired by Wes Anderson films and the 1960s, this lodge offers a unique experience. The dining room and bar are equally charismatic, with pink lettering glowing along the wall that reads 'One night in Namibia' – surely this is something not to be missed!

Walk through your chalet door to find soft shades of love floating across the canvas, a minibar that has that perfect gin and tonic waiting, and a private plunge pool that's just a sliding door away.

Enjoy a guided half-day excursion to the highest dunes on Earth at Sossusvlei, and discover the many wonders of the desert on a guided drive around the Gondwana Namib Park. Guests can also experience the Namib desert on foot during self-guided walks or on an electric bicycle.
