"Kwessi Dunes review"

2 nights Arrived 21 Dec 2022
"The namib rand is one of the most beautiful places on earth and should not be missed.

Kwessi was lovely, and the rooms fantastic, although being just opened, was still working out some minor teething issues - in particular with regards to the on site activities. That said, this was still one of our favourite places.

Sleeping out under the stars with the milky way, watching the animals coming to the water hole with an epic backdrop and messing around in the surrounding apricot coloured dunes was a whole lot of fun.

Kwessi is also a good base for the ballooning over the desert and for a visit to sossusvlei itself" See all these reviews: 21n in Namibia

"Kwessi Dunes review"

2 nights Arrived 7 Oct 2022
"Amazing views from the rooms at Kwessi Dunes, from the Oryx at the watering hole to the expansive desert beyond.

The rooms look quite new with a nice style including the furniture. In particular, there are two beds, one indoors and one outdoors, both dressed with sheets and pillows so you can take your pick as to whether you sleep indoors or under the stars. The outdoor shower is also just as good as the indoor shower.

Staff at Kwessi are very helpful, Roy the manager who greeted us was very accommodating to our needs such as food intolerances, and always checked up on us. Stanley, our tour guide, really appreciated us being there and was passionate about guiding.

Thanks to Roy (and Stanley) for the transport to our hot air balloon trip!" See all these reviews: 15n in Namibia

"Excellent camp - great service and food. Quad biking through the dunes a highlight. Team was eager to please.

Rooms a bit too polished for our liking but sparkling clean and new.

2 nights was perfect." See all these reviews: 13n in Namibia
