In a country jam-packed with vast, spectacularly beautiful landscapes, Kaokoland may just be the most incredible of them all. Deep in north-western Namibia, the area is a melee of towering mountains, sand dunes, and huge expanses of desert, scattered with unique wildlife and nomadic Himba settlements. It’s also one of Namibia’s most remote and wild environments, and one that not many will get the chance to discover in a lifetime, and the very reason we’ve built it here.

The six rooms rests effortlessly in this wild environment, offering a simple aesthetic that matches the rugged landscape down to a tee. Days are spent tracking endangered rhino, desert-adapted elephant, and of course desert-adapted giraffe, before retiring to your private veranda to marvel at the magnitude of your surroundings (sundowner in hand).

Discover the true magnitude and magic of Namibia and visit a place that not many will ever have the chance to explore. This area is one of the best places to see desert adapted elephant, giraffe, lion, rhino, mountain zebra, and oryx. Sip a G&T on your private veranda and contemplate the stark beauty of the landscape spread out all around you. Learn more about the ground-breaking giraffe research that is being conducted in this remote corner of Namibia.
