Little Kulala borders the Namib Naukluft Park in the heart of the Namib Desert. The landscapes of this area are extraordinary: stark plains are bordered by rugged mountains and the towering red dunes of Sossusvlei (some of the highest sand dunes in the world), and this terrain in turn gives rise to fascinating forms of desert-adapted fauna and flora.

High daytime temperatures and harsh conditions have been taken into account in the immaculate construction of Little Kulala.
Not only are the eight impressively luxurious chalets built on raised wooden platforms to increase ventilation but a roof deck allows you to sleep under the stars in the cool night air- a magical African experience!
The rooms at Little Kulala are spacious and have every conceivable convenience. With glass on three sides, you can enjoy the three dimensional view from your bed, private lounge area or plunge pool.
Exciting game drives and guided walks at Little Kulala take place early in the morning and during the tranquil afternoons you can keep cool by the pool!
Another exciting option is to go ballooning. First thing in the morning, wake up and be swept away in a balloon over the sand dunes and upon landing, enjoy a champagne breakfast!
Little Kulala's main lounge, bar and dining area overlook a waterhole in the foreground and the Sossusvlei dunes in the background- an ideal spot to watch the desert sunsets.
The lodge has also kept the same design features of the nearby Kulala Desert Lodge but although similar, it is smaller, more intimate and placed on the dry Auab River bed.
Lise's thoughts on Little Kulala: Little Kulala is definitely the most flash and luxurious of the lodges in Sossusvlei. Rooms are absolutely huge and have private plunge pools-Little Kulala is a must for the high end client!
