Food, especially the dinners were exceptionally good and well prepared. The setting was very unique and special to remember for a long time. We also found the staff friendliness and willingness to assist very good.

Great stay in the desert.
The lodge offers everything you wish for - nice and friendly staff, really good food (the dinner is just wow) and a great view.
We booked a tour into sossuvlei at the lodge - that was a great choice. The guide was highly motivated, took us to the best places (also the ones that are not the tourist hotspots) and explained a lot of things about the landscape.
Would definitely come back to desert homestead lodge if I will ever be in the area again.

I was at one of the private campsites. Beautifully designed and built with everything an overlander could want. Absolutely superb! Sites well spaced with about 400m between sites. Highly recommended.

We stayed at the Desert Camp, not far from the park entrance gate. It was an easy drive to the park, and the 60km of wonderful tarred road to the 2 wheel drive car park. This gives access to Dig Daddy dune and Deadvlei.
From here the park vehicle took us to Big Momma dune, and also goes to Hidden Vlei. All very easy.
Dune 45 is 45 km along the road. The bus cost 180 Namibian dollars in October 2023. Wear runners to climb the dunes and walk to Deadvlei. Har, sunglasses and water are essential. We ate at the restaurant inside the park gate. Good and affordable. We bought our water at the shop there. Breakfast at the Sossusvlei Lodge was good too.
I would recommend paying extra for tyre and glass insurance when picking up your rental car. Prior to coming to Sesriem, we had a flat tyre far from anywhere and Hertz directed us to a lodge with tyre repair services. We had to go on to Outjo to get the fixed tyre replaced, but the insurance made it less of a concern.

Best place to experience the oldest desert on earth.
Best place to experience the oldest desert on earth. Wonderful place to spend time with. At least you need to stay 1 night inside park to make sure that you can go to Deadvlei early in the moring. Take photos with shade of light. Hiking at Daddy dune in the morning and slide down to deadvlei.

Sesriem is an oasis in the desert and everything is well organized but basic. Prepare well before you go. The cleanliness of the entire area is remarkable. The Namibian people are very friendly and helpful - don't be shy to ask for advice.

I loved the dunes, but we should have got there a bit earlier in the day for the best photographic opportunities. We stayed at We Kebi Lodge which was exceptional value for money, and I would have loved to stay there for a longer stay.

The road in from Mariental (273Km) and out to Walvis Bay (315 Km) were sand/gravel, and in a poor shape for large portions. Other than that it was a great stay. 2 nights should be a minimum with at least one day to frolic in the dunes.

Accommodation in and around Sesriem and Sossusvlei is...
Accommodation in and around Sesriem and Sossusvlei is slightly on the expensive side for locals and South Africans. However, it is one of those things that you have to see and experience should you be able to travel the gravel roads of this vast country.
Great place to stay, highly recommended!
We stayed 2 nights to visit Sossusvlei. You can view the sunrise and sunset by fire place. Also possible to have balloon fly of sunrise behind the hotel, in the morning we job to the backside and go up the small hill and the view was great, at night, you can have amzing milkyway after 5 course dinner which is sunrising good and fast.
We did not expect this at our first stay in Namibia, it was the best start you would wish for.
what a magical place. this fort like hotel was in the middle of the desert. The rooms were spacious and looked out onto the desert. sitting and watching the oryx every afternoon was a highlight. The staff were so helpful and friendly. The dinners were fabulous as well. the location is perfect for hot air ballooning and visiting Sossousvlei. What a gem in the desert.
Great place to stay if you are visiting Sesriem. The rooms are simple but very clean and comfortable to accommodate a family with kids.
The staff is excellent and go above and beyond to make sure you have a great stay (kudos specially to Paul on this).
Food is also very good and quality and the kitchen staff make sure all your dietary requirements are considered.
What a fantastic experience that was. You are treated like a king from start to finish. The Hotel Manager has created a superb atmosphere with all the staff. The facilities are greatly located.
I can only highly spoke of everyone looking after us during our stay/
A special thank you to our guide Paolo who made our desert tour extraordinary.
This hotel is the best hotel I've ever stayed. Staffs were really kind and food was amazing. Near water holes, you can see oryx and it's really lovely. The hotel was very clean. We did quad bike tour to see sunrise. The senery was so beautiful and we made a good memory. If I travel to Namibia, I definitely choose this hotel again.
The location and sunset is awesome ! Hermann who is doing the tour is the perfect person to go with at the dunes, sesriem and deadvlei ! we did as well a game drive wirh hermann is was superbe ! The location is great, staff very smilly and friendly !
Very clean as well ! and great diner !
Everything was perfect. From check in to check out the service and staff were wonderful. Lovely view from the room, comfortable, peaceful, great food and the Gemsbok. 40 mins drive to Sesriem gate. Well worth it to see the dunes. Don't forget Deadvlie and Sesriem Canyon.
The staff went out of their way to provide a good experience. Quaint and interesting decorations on the property. Rooms were very private. Food excellent. We were provided with a brunch packet so that we could leave very early to drive to Sesriem for the day.
The hotel has spectacular view, chalets are stylish and very clean. The food is amazing and quite varied, considering the location in the middle of the desert.
Special greetings to Steven, who is really helpful and cool guy :)
A very nice place with nice swimming pool to have a drink! Dinner @ Sossusvlei Lodge was really great (food and place): dinner under the stars! :) Perfect location as only few kilometers from the gate.
Very lovely staff. Did its best whilst the hotel was short of water during two days
Great rooms with an amazing vue
Foods was OK
Surely a very good place to stay to discover the dunes around
A quiet nice place to rest from the adventure in Sesriem. Comfortable and nice place!!!!
For my kids, the fact that the place has a some sort of Linx that you could touch!
We had a fantastic stay. Everyone was super helpful, and the tour provided by the hotel was exceptional. Perfect for a romantic weekend. Definitely would come back.
