'A Namib Desert Camp situated on the 21,000-hectare private reserve near Sossusvlei'
Kulala Wilderness Camp, in the heart of Namibia's Namib Desert, is on a 21,000-hectare private reserve near Sossusvlei. The camp is about four kilometres from the main Kulala Lodge, with a separate entrance and access road. It is built at the foot of a mountain facing west with great sunset views.
On the edge of the oldest desert in the world, this is not a game rich area, however, whatever game is seen, is interesting and dramatised by the contrast between the desert and animals like springbok, oryx and ostrich who manage to survive in these harsh conditions.
The main lodge comprises of the reception, lounge, bar, dining room and veranda. There is a swimming pool with shaded area if guests want to relax.
Accommodation at the camp consists of six Meru-style tents with en-suite bathrooms with showers. Hot water is solar heated. The tents are linked to the main dining room, bar, reception area and swimming pool by gravel pathways. The interiors are simple yet comfortable and have solar powered 12V lighting and overhead fans.
FOOD & WINE:
The main dining area is built from stout timber and canvas with thatch roofing. There is a fully stocked bar, and traditional three course meals are served at dinner. At night, lanterns light the main area, and a full breakfast is served there in the mornings.
