Little Kulala, the flagship of Namibia’s extraordinary Sossusvlei area, has for several years been attracting informed travellers, who enjoy the first-rate facilities, charming hospitality and proximity to the towering sand dunes. This acclaimed Wilderness Safaris desert retreat, in the only reserve with direct access to Sossusvlei, has climate-controlled villas and an elegant entertainment area that includes al fresco fine dining as a highlight.
The 11 stylish canvas-and-thatch villas merge impeccably into the timeless desert landscape, with exquisite fittings and fixtures, innovative bleached decks each with a private plunge pool. The extensive use of neutral colours, gorgeous textures and natural light reproduce the soothing pastel tones of the desert. Each villa has a rooftop ‘skybed’ for romantic stargazing, with both indoor and outdoor showers. Journey through the Namib in harmony with the environment and savour the personal and sumptuous style of Little Kukaka, and Wilderness Safaris’ renowned hospitality.
The camp offers:
- Eleven en-suite ‘kulalas‘, each with a wrap-around veranda and private plunge pool;
- Mattresses placed on the flat rooftop create the ideal setting to stargaze in private or sleep under the blazing Milky Way;
- The main area has a stylish lounge, bar and dining room with a view of the dunes; and
- The main verandah overlooks a waterhole.
Activities:
- Guided game drives and walks on the private nature reserve provide awe-inspiring views and sightings of desert-adapted wildlife and plants; and
- A balloon safari (at extra cost) offers a unique experience, soaring silently above the desert before landing for a champagne breakfast.
