The Namib-Naukluft Park in Central Namibia is high on the list of priority attractions to visit for travellers to this breathtaking country.
The beauty of the red dunes - some of the highest in the world - and the intriguing natural wonder of Sesriem Canyon and Sossusvlei should not be missed, especially not by photographers and adventurers.
Situated in the desert between the Solitaire and Sesriem, the Desert Grace Lodge offers luxurious and stylish accommodation in bungalows blending into the surrounding dunes.
The freshly modern interior is in sharp contrast to the natural exterior of the buildings, which makes it an exciting place to stay.
Desert Grace Lodge Accommodation
Accommodation is provided in 24 modern bungalows.
Some of the rooms are twin units, others are furnished with double beds for couples and there are also a few family units with 2 bedrooms, accommodating 4 persons.
All the bungalows at the Desert Grace have air-conditioners, en-suite bathrooms and private verandas with a plunge pool for cooling off in the desert heat.
Because the rooms were built with sandbags instead of bricks, the interior is well insulated against the extreme weather conditions experienced in the desert.
