"Kulala"
Very friendly and welcoming staff. Bar and verrandah exceptionally located.
A little bit far to Sossusvlei in morning (but an acceptable distance) if you don't take their relatively expensive trip in." See all these reviews: 12n in Namibia
"Kulala Desert Lodge review"
Petreus our guide was enthusiastic and knowledgeable.
The dunes experience was incredible, however having left our lodge just after dawn, we had expected to be walking the dunes around sun rise, at least not in the heat of the mid morning, when it was also more crowded." See all these reviews: 9n in Namibia; 9n in Botswana

"under the stars at Kulala"
Food was ok, but tried too hard, it would have been beter to keep it more basic and wholesome. The afternoon cakes were a treat to look forward to.
Sleeping on roof, under the stars was an experience to remember.
We think the dunes visit would have benefited from a very early start to capture the early morning shadows." See all these reviews: 16n in Namibia
