There is a spacious lounge with a library, plush armchairs, historic photographs, and a single dining table where guests dine with the guides, recounting the day’s adventures.

There are seven expansive tented suites and one family unit, all with en-suite bathrooms in a separate portion of the tent. Each tent is stylishly furnished using a natural, colour palette to create a haven of tranquillity in the midst of the desert.

Explore the magnificent desert landscape of the Skeleton Coast on game drives and walks, looking out for desert adapted wildlife such as black rhino, desert elephant, giraffe and oryx. Climb in the mountains and canyons of the Hoanib Valley, and visit one of the fascinating nomadic Himba villages to learn about how people have managed to live for centuries in this harsh environment.
