Wolwedans Dunes Lodge

(Sossusvlei - Namibia)

General Description
The Dunes Lodge is perched on top of a dune plateau, overlooking panoramic vistas in all directions and capturing the beauty of the desert in a most memorable way. It is constructed of a combination of wooden structures and canvas blinds, opening up to the desert beyond. Dunes Lodge reflects the ambience of a tented camp, but provides the comfort and protection of a permanent building.

The main complex, which was completely rebuilt in 2003, consists of two lounges, a number of sundowner decks, a fireplace, a tea deck, a library, the wine cellar and two dining rooms. The lodge also has a swimming pool, which is suspended above the sand. All communal areas of the lodge open out onto decks with superb views.

With 200 square metres of deck rising above the dunes, the Mountain View Suite provides ample living space and adds a touch of luxury to the Wolwedans Collection. The Suite is located within walking distance from the Dunes Lodge, yet it is secluded, allowing guests to spend time in a homely and stylish atmosphere. Consisting of a spacious en-suite bedroom with a king-size bed, the Suite enables guests to enjoy the view of their private dune valley to the fullest. A shaded patio provides an ideal venue for meals and relaxed hours lazing in a hammock. Add to this a spacious lounge, bar cabinet and dining area and you have a wonderful home away from home. An east-facing verandah and sundeck lead from the platform into the surrounding dunes. The main verandah has a ‘star-gazing’ bed, which provides a wonderful sleep-out venue during summer.

Accommodation
All of the nine spacious, en-suite chalets has its own private verandah, which connects you to vast stretches of untouched sand. The canvas blinds open to allow in air.
