Where to Stay in Namibia

1. Shipwreck Lodge

Designed to resemble the shipwrecks that line the hauntingly beautiful Skeleton Coast, this camp's style is unique. Shipwreck Lodge is the only lodge inside the Skeleton Coast National Park. Venture into this wilderness as you pass over extraordinary lunar-like sand formations, with expert guides that take you into remote areas where it feels pristine and uncharted; silent yet intriguingly powerful.

2. Hoanib Valley Camp

Situated in one of the most remote areas of Africa, the Hoanib Skeleton Camp is an intimate and luxurious camp that offers the chance to see desert adapted animals. The camp is located in the heart of a private concession area, next to the Palmwag area and the Skeleton Coast National Park. With just six tented rooms, there is absolute exclusivity about this camp and each of the tents are en-suite with their own outdoor shaded deck.

3. Kulala Desert Lodge

4. Onguma Camp Kala

In November 2022, Onguma launched Camp Kala, a new ultra-exclusive lodge experience designed by Nick Plewman architects and the interior design was executed by Fox Browne Creative. Bordering the eastern side of the Etosha National Park, Onguma Tented Camp lies inside the Onguma Private Game Reserve. There are only four sophisticated and elegant luxury tents each with ensuite facilities including an outdoor shower, from which you can see the local water hole and animals quenching their thirst.

5. Serra Cafema

In absolutely splendid isolation, Serra Cafema is one of Africa’s most endearing and magical areas, offering one of the most memorable experiences on the continent. With access only via a flight into Hartman’s Valley airstrip, this is perhaps the most remote of all the camps in southern Africa, perched on the southern bank of the bubbling Kunene River - the area's only water source.

6. Sossusvlei Desert Lodge

In the heart of the ancient Namib Desert, Sossusvlei Desert Lodge provides an oasis for any traveller. The bewilderingly beautiful views over the dunes and rocky outcrops combined with the clearest skies make for some of the most amazing vistas, unique to this part of Africa. Ten suites constructed from stone and glass, set into natural rock at the foot of a mountain, with views of the fiery sand of the desert.

7. Wolwedans Dune Camp

Built on the side of a 250 metre high vegetated dune in Sossusvlei, this is an intimate camp for just 12 guests at a time. This is a simple and economical camp located in the heart of the NamibRand Nature Reserve, south of Sossusvlei. In an unspoilt area, the camp offers guests spectacular views and uncomplicated accommodation – a true African wilderness experience. With 360 degree panoramas, Dunes Lodge is perched on top of a dune plateau.

8. Hoanib Skeleton Coast Camp

Situated in one of the most remote areas of Africa, the Hoanib Skeleton Camp is an intimate and luxurious camp that offers the chance to see desert adapted animals; elephants, giraffes, oryx and even lions. A true desert oasis, the exclusive eight tents looks out over stunning, starkly beautiful scenery. The stylish camp design effectively combines canvas and glass to maximise the appreciation of this desolate yet strangely vibrant wilderness.
