andBeyond Sossusvlei Desert Lodge

Cradled against the ancient mountains, &Beyond Sossusvlei Desert Lodge overlooks the starkly beautiful Namib Desert. 10 exquisite suites offer the sophistication of simplicity, reflecting chic desert-inspired minimalism, and the two-bedroomed Star Dune Suite is ideal for families or groups of friends, who prefer more privacy.

The guest area features floor to ceiling, frameless glass panels that fold away to reveal unobstructed desert vistas. An inviting central-island bar and comfortable sitting room allow for convivial conversation, while a number of smaller spaces offer a more intimate option. The interactive kitchen design allows for guests to create their own dishes and menu should they wish to. A fine selection of wines from an impressive walk-in wine cellar complement sublime meals.

Other signature features include a one-of-a-kind gym, elevated and ideally positioned to catch the desert sunrise while doing a quick session on the treadmill before breakfast. A two-part wellness centre offers a treatment room and a private spa-bath, as well as a wet treatment room with a shower and bath, complete with its own skylight for early-evening stargazing. Desert adventures abound here, and small-group, personalised guest activities are on offer. Options include special-interest guided nature walks; scenic nature drives; dune ecology activity; fatbiking; quad bike excursions; hot air ballooning; San rock painting excursions and outings to the renowned Sossusvlei and Deadvlei.

Rooms

Suite(s) (10 rooms)

Designed to capture the splendor and solitude of the desert, just ten stone and glass suites spread out along the curve of the escarpment, allowing absolute privacy. Each air conditioned glass-fronted suite is designed to complement the expansive views of the different habitats, perfectly framed from the spacious internal areas. Featuring a private veranda, bedroom with retractable skylights for in-bed star-gazing, a living room with a fireplace, an ensuite bathroom with a glass-encased rain shower offering 180º views, and a perfectly-positioned private plunge pool for some sublime respite after a long day in the desert heat.

All suites include star-viewing skylights, discrete music systems and customised personal bars. One of the most innovative features of the accommodation design is the way in which the extremes of the natural environment are harnessed to create energy and recycle waste water. Each suite is like its own solar power plant, producing enough energy to not only power the air conditioning, and all the super-comforts of a luxury lodge, but also the water treatment and recycling systems.

Star Dune suite (1 room)

Creating an ideal family environment, or an ideal option for groups of friends, the Star Dune Suite consists of two suites linked by a covered walkway, with a private lounge and dining space. The combined amenities of this extended accommodation provide the perfect space for one and all to enjoy. For those family groups, our &Beyond guides and lodge team will provide a host of fun and interactive children’s activities.
