Namibia
Overview
Namibia – A land of vast horizons and dramatic contrasts, Namibia is where the world’s oldest desert meets the wild Atlantic Ocean. Marvel at the towering red dunes of Sossusvlei, track desert-adapted elephants in Damaraland, and witness abundant wildlife in Etosha National Park.

Namibia Highlights
Gmundner Lodge
Gmundner Lodge is a luxurious retreat nestled southeast of Windhoek, Namibia, between the Kalahari Desert and the Khomas mountain plateau. This Relais & Châteaux member offers twelve elegant suites, each designed with sustainable materials and featuring both indoor and outdoor bathrooms, providing guests with complete privacy and a deep connection to nature.
The Kalahari
The Kalahari in Namibia is a breathtaking semi-arid desert that stretches across the eastern part of the country, forming part of the larger Kalahari Basin that spans Botswana and South Africa. Unlike traditional deserts, the Kalahari is teeming with life, featuring rolling red sand dunes, golden grasslands, and scattered acacia trees, creating a landscape that is both harsh and beautiful.
