Hidden behind a narrow break in the rock, this camp has memorable views of its namesake. The main tent at its center, where house party-like dinners are served, has attractive seating groups for lounging and a central island that serves as a buffet and bar. Flanking the main tent, the six guest tents, including one family tent, are decorated in a simple and masculine campaign style. Though Wi-Fi in the main tent is relatively fast, the signal does not reach tents on the edges of the camp. Activities include fantastic game drives that track desert-adapted rhino and elephant as well as other animals, and visits to Himba settlements and Herero villages are often possible. This is a sister property to Shipwreck Lodge, four hours away overland, and the two are easily combined.
Read the full review from our editors.
The simple and stylish campaign-style design; our superlative guide; the delightful waitstaff; the remote location; the unusually broad selection of wines by the glass.
The tents’ panels that unzip to reveal screens can be difficult to open and secure.
As at Shipwreck Lodge, the paths between the accommodations and dining room are soft sand and not well-suited to those with walking difficulties.
Editor’s Choice: Tent for two, $1,400 (all meals and beverages and most activities included).
