"Kulala Desert Lodge review"
The Lodge itself is very comfortable - the dining area has great views. The chalets are well equipped. The Staff were all very friendly and helpful .
Kulala was a great choice as a base in the Sossusvlei area, although Wilderness should probably change a little the afternoon activity ( Sesriem canyon) . We felt it was a bit lightweight compared with the morning visit to the dunes. But probably it is hard to beat the Sossusvlei." See all these reviews: 13n in Namibia

The dunes and Dead Vlei lived up to our expectations and the view of the sand sea from the top of Big Daddy was terrific. The trip to the canyon was very interesting.
The food was excellent. The staff were friendly and helpful." See all these reviews: 11n in Namibia

The private gate to Sossusvlei was a real bonus as we were able to arrive ahead of the crowds. Although we initially intended to drive ourselves, we were glad of the guided trip from the lodge as moving around the park & access to trails is not overly signposted."

The staff was amazing, the food initially was rather salty but they readjusted the seasoning after we made our request. The guide was excellent, we thoroughly enjoyed our activities with him. I would happily stay at this lodge again if I return.
Hopefully, by then, there will be heating in the rooms." See all these reviews: 13n in Namibia

The staff were all very friendly and accommodating and the lodge was very well situated with lovely food and even some singing and dancing one night which was wonderful.
On our last day, without asking for it, the lodge prepared wonderful picnic boxes for our onward travels at no cost which was very helpful and thoughtful." See all these reviews: 9n in Namibia; 5n in Botswana; 2n in Zimbabwe

Private entrance to the park will give you more time with the dunes.
Rooms and food are decent, wildlife is a little hit/miss, but that's not the attraction here.
