Your Oasis in The Desert

  I chose this as a base for visiting Sossusvlei (it takes about 40 minutes to drive to the park gate at Sesriem) and wasn't expecting much but was very pleasantly... read more surprised. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable with the bed on the roof being a nice feature. You pay extra if you want the bed to made so you can sleep there but it's a great place just to lie back
and look at the stars with no light pollution.

The bathroom facilities were high quality with a superb 'rainshower' style shower.

The staff were excellent - really helpful and friendly - and the area around the pool and the main building was well furnished and relaxing. The buffet food was of a high standard and the chefs appeared rightly proud of their efforts.

The only improvements could be slightly better air-conditioning, and a sheet needs to be provided as an alternative to a duvet.

These are minor points and I would definitely recommend Agama Lodge.

  This is a lovely lodge both in terms of its setting and also the staff. Don’t be put off that you can see it from the road. It feels completely... read more private. There is a gorgeous, large infinity pool. We stayed in a delux villa close to reception. It was huge with a big bed, writing desk, settee, wacky wooden furniture you could hang things from, aircon, coffee maker, safe, hairdryer but no fridge. We had wifi in the room. Through the patio doors there is outside space with table, settee and sun bed, then upstairs is a sun terrace with a double bed 2 chairs and a table. The standard rooms were smaller but looked as good. You could park next to your room.

Food was excellent and buffet style - you could eat inside or outside.
Land belonging to the lodge stretches right into the mountains and they use neighbour’s land on the other side of the road to access sand dunes. There are no fences in this area so wild life roams free. We had an excellent sundowner with Lance, seeing blue Wildebeest, mountain zebra and oryx. Next morning we went with Helen for a morning drive into the dunes, all the more dramatic due to a thunder storm and strong wind.

  Fabulous lodge, within easy reach of Sossusvlei.
Luxury cabins, with the option to sleep up on the roof under the stars.
Beautiful pool, bar and restaurant areas, all with great... read more views out into the desert.
Friendly welcoming and professional staff.
All in all a great place to spend a few days whilst touring.
