Kulala Desert Lodge
"Kulala Desert Lodge review"

Arrived
17 Aug 2019
"Accommodation was delightful. Location impressive, although the waterhole was a tad desultory,
We did two tours and the guide was helpful and knowledgeable. Activity pricing seemed higher than anywhere else we stayed. Oryx snoozing in the shade of our room was pretty special. Food was fine.
Roads on the the 2-3 hrs prior to reaching the lodge was a little substandard."

"Upgraded happily to view rooms, which were very large and exquisitely comfortable, with magnificently large windows.
Much wildlife, and opportunities for self-guided walks and guided tours. Conservation focus was great to see."
