    The location was absolutely stunning, the room was intricately designed and the very thoughtful gift hamper was the cherry on top. The bar and lounge was relaxing at night with Matthew a very kind soul showing us around and taking pics of us. Macillino at the reception was very helpful as well

    We had a wonderful stay here, everything was beautiful, it even smelt amazing in the room! Everything you require is in the room and if not reception will sort it for you. The buffet was delicious and plentiful. The private terrace and pool was amazing with an untouched views. We did the sundowner tour and saw some game and had great drinks and snacks -Make sure you stop at the photo frame/ fridge on the drive in from the gate! We would highly recommend staying here.

    We planned to spend the day after we arrived relaxing in our room after a very long drive the day before from Fish River Canyon. When we got back from dinner on evening 1 the awning over our pool was gone. The next morning we had breakfast went for a walk came back and still no awning. By midday the sun had moved around there was no shade left on our terrace and still no awning. My husband called reception. At 12.45 I called reception and they claimed they hadn’t understood what he was asking. By 1.15 sun was beating into our room I hadn’t heard back from reception so I walked to reception. They said they would speak to maintenance. By 2pm we had the curtains closed and were sitting inside in the dark. The maintenance team arrived but it took them an hour to put that awning back up. By the time they left it was almost time for us to start getting ready for our sunset drive. The entire day planned around sitting on the terrace and using the pool was gone. No one apologized and no compensation offered. In fact we never saw a manager in the 3 days we were there.

    Stunning luxury in the desert

    It was very pricy stay over. Otherwise, fantastic.

    The location was fantastic with the red dunes in front of all property, the villas, the bar, the breakfast / dinner room. Driving to the property was great experience - came in the sundowner. The breakfast and evening buffet - high quality food. Fresh food, excellent barbacue, salads, and their home-made ice cream. Good service by people who worked at the property. Friendly bartenders. Extraordinary sundowner with the guide from Desert Grace - our guide was highly skilled on the animals, friendly and chill person.

    Well designed lodge which does not quite live up to its own claim
    • Leisure trip
    • Family with young children
    • Deluxe Family Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    For a hotel of this price category: The quality of the food is unfortunately below average. The staff, although very friendly and eager, obviously lacks hotelier experience. Overall, there is unfortunately no recognizable service concept. The condition of the rooms is in some cases no longer at the highest level. Especially for travelers coming from the south, the location of the lodge for a visit to Sossuvlei is only conditionally recommended.

    The Desert Grace has a recognizable lovingly designed concept - particularly the very well equipped rooms correspond to the high-quality claim of this lodge in the top category of the Gondwana Brand. The private pools with uninterrupted views of the red dunes of the Namib are wonderful - especially for families with small children. The nightly Scorpion Walk is also highly recommended.
