Take a light aircraft from Windhoek (WDH) to Puros Airstrip ~2 h 30 flight time, then followed by a ~5 minute 4×4 transfer to lodge. Self-drive: only by high-clearance 4×4 on poor roads (e.g., via D3707 from Sesfontein to Puros), allow a full day.
Expect cool, high ceilings, a soaking tub with walk-in shower, mosquito-netted bed, and a wide terrace perfect for sunrise coffees and starlit nightcaps. For families or two couples, the 2-Bedroom Family Suite adds two private en-suite bedrooms flanking a shared lounge that opens onto an expansive desert-view deck. Ideal for multi-gen trips wanting both space and together time.
Seasonal, Mediterranean-leaning plated menus (think eggs Benedict breakfasts, brie tarts, grilled chicken, fresh salads) alongside Namibian dishes like oryx. Desserts often include house gelato. Private candle lit terrace dinners are easy to arrange on request.
Soft bag, wide-brim hat, scarf/buff for dust, closed shoes for rocky valley walks, warm layer for winter nights, spare batteries/SDs for long drives.
Plan 2–3 nights minimum. Pair a desert-elephant morning with an afternoon Himba village visit and ask for one fully sunset-focused drive to linger along the Hoarusib oxbows.
By staying in community-managed Puros Conservancy, guest spend supports anti-poaching, human–wildlife coexistence and local employment; guided cultural visits are arranged with community oversight.
