Desert Hills Lodge in Sossusvlei Namibia

Welcome to Desert Hills Lodge in Sossusvlei Namibia.

A mere 30km from the Naukluft gate on the C19, Desert Hills Lodge is perfectly positioned to discover the beauty of the Namib.

HOME TO THE DESERT SUNSET

A vast swathe of arid earth. A stretch of the Tsauchub river and the ever moving, land changing Hebron vault. This was the stage for the ancient San people to dance their adventures to each other within the safe glow of their evening fires, surrounded by their yellow grass huts. These resilient nomads etched out a living on the plains and mountains where Desert Hills Lodge rests today.

In the more recent epoch new commercially minded people settled on these very same plains, mountains and dunes and would come to call it home; this time as pastoral farmers. They named the piece of land Hebron meaning "the binding friendship place" and primarily farmed karakul sheep for their wool and skins. In 1981 the Porteus family acquired a portion of farm Hebron, and recently decided to open this incredibly beautiful piece of land to tourism.

Desert Hills Lodge Photographs

Inspired by the huts of the ancient peoples of the Namib, designed, built and engineered by the owners and founders, Desert Hills Lodge is certainly a visual delight. The proprietary designs of the high grass domes leave one in awe as the eye journeys across its curved organic surfaces, without the edges and corners of the buildings of the daily hustle and bustle of cities.
