Set in the private NamibRand Nature Reserve just south of the blazing dunes of Sossusvlei, the five Wolwedans lodges are hallmarked by a commitment to care for guests and nature alike, setting an example in sustainable tourism and conservation. Perched on a dune plateau with panoramic views in all directions, Dune Lodge is a stylish collection of nine elevated wooden chalets, canvas blinds that can be raised for nights open to the stars and verandas with heartstopping views. A swimming pool, library and various decks provide the perfect opportunity for relaxation, while the cuisine and extensive wine cellar are little short of a miracle given the forbidding logistics. Within walking distance, the Mountain View Suite is a huge, elegant and entirely private honeymoon idyll with a stargazing bed. While a few kilometres away, Dune Camp offers a very civilised tented experience for up to 12 guests. The completely secluded, Private Camp lies in a picturesque valley and sleeps four in splendid surroundings with a private chef and guide. The remote Boulders Camp is sited around the base of a boulder strewn mountain with only four raised canvas bedrooms taking privacy to the extreme. Visually, Wolwedans is a dream location for photographers, painters and arch-romantics who revel in amber sunsets and the changing colours of savannah, mountains, dunes and rocky valleys. Combined with guided nature drives and walks, fascinating desert flora and fauna and the prospect of sundowners, watching the shadows lengthen across this stupendous, empty foreverness of sand and rock, Wolwedans is out of this world.
