Little Kulala

Top choice in Namibia


Part of Wilderness Safaris' Classic portfolio, Little Kulala is simply stunning. Expansive rooms, each with their own plunge pools, watch over rippling sands and silhouetted desert trees with the sand sea dominating the view not far away. Meals are outstanding, there's a well-stocked wine cellar, the public areas are gorgeous and the whole effect is of a near-perfect sophisticated oasis.

Activities include excursions into the sand sea, but this is one place where we recommend leaving enough time to simply enjoy the surrounds. And by night, the stars out here are utterly extraordinary.
