Desert Hills Lodge is our flagship venue. As the name implies, the lodge gracefully perch on a natural stone outcrop, generously spoiling its guests to spectacular views of the desert below and the dramatic Namib sunset. As the sun sets, it sends its long red tendrils of delight into each of the 18 chalets. Within each stone ensconced thatch chalet contain all the indulgences befitting a modern traveller and have an aesthetic essence about them which instantly ignites any city-numbed imagination.
Desert Hills is the perfect place to use as a base for exploring the area or spending time in its serenity and think the thoughts you’ve forgotten to think. Sossusvlei and Sesriem is a stone throw away and top of your day with delectable cheese and wine in the cellar, a heavenly sundowner, glorious dining, and the kind of sleep Morpheus would be proud of.

Everything in Africa bites, but the safari bug is worst of all.
Better to see something once than to hear about it a thousand times.
One travels to run away from routine, that dreadful routine that kills all imagination and all our capacity for enthusiasm.
The very basic core of a man’s living spirit is his passion for adventure.
The gladdest moment in human life is a departure into unknown lands.
The world is not in your books and maps; it’s out there.
The only man I envy is the man who has not yet been to Africa — for he has so much to look forward to.
Traveling – it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.
Reminds me of my safari in Africa. Somebody forgot the corkscrew and for several days we had to live on nothing but food and water.
I travel because I’d rather look back at my life, saying ‘I can’t believe I did that’ instead of ‘if only I had’.
