Holidays at the &Beyond Desert Lodge

At the &Beyond Sossusvlei Desert Lodge, modern architecture blends seamlessly into the rugged beauty of the Namib Desert.

Nestled in the Namib, the oldest desert in the world, the eleven ​‘&Beyond Sossusvlei Desert Lodges’ rise along the curve of a steep slope at the edge of the NamibRand Nature Reserve. The architecture of the ​‘&Beyond Sossusvlei Desert Lodge’ blends into the dramatic landscape and offers unforgettable views and crystal-clear nights under a breathtaking starry sky. Discover premium comfort amidst the silence and vastness of the desert where design, nature and pleasure combine to create a holistic experience.

&Beyond Sossusvlei Desert Lodge: starry desert nights in Namibia

The stone and glass suites blend seamlessly into a sea of dunes, rocky outcrops and gravel plains. A retractable skylight directly above the beds offers a clear view of spectacular constellations at night, while the shaded veranda offers sweeping views of the endless expanse of the desert.
