The newly rebuilt Desert Homestead has been skilfully designed to incorporate all the features that guests loved about the original lodge, whilst enjoying the benefit of a pristine location only 31.5km from Sesriem.
The 20 thatched chalets ensure our guests a more comfortable stay, and needless to say – the little touches that characterize homestead hospitality are still evident everywhere.
Meals can be savoured in the romantic indoor dining room complete with candles and fireplace, or alternately on the traditional wide farm veranda, with lanterns and stars adding to the ambience.
On the activities front, this is a popular destination for keen horse riders. All the horses are well schooled, though there are more lively horses for experienced riders and a selection of peaceful mounts for beginners.
At least a two night stay is recommended, but if you can squeeze in a third night, hikes in the Naukluft Mountains beckon, followed by an invigorating dip in the jewel-like rock pools.
