Desrt Quiver Camp
Nice stay in the desert a few kilometers away from the Sossusvlei national park entrance gate. The accommodation is clean but the external canvas over the small kitchen area is in need of replacement. Also be reminded that breakfast is not served at the quiver camp but rather at the main lodge a few kilometers away.

Good stay
All was ok just wish the pool was working because i booked that the apartment for the pool which was closed. Was offered to use pools from nearby guest houses Secondly the fridge was not cold and the freezer compartment was tiny. Being in a desert, a big freezer makes sense. I wanted to put 2 liters of water to user when i go to the dunes but it could fit even a 1 litre bottle

Great stay!
Loved this place! Very underrated, property was very pretty, staff was amazing, and they had the coldest beer possible. Not much more you can ask for after getting cooked in the sun by the dunes.

Very nice accommodation and conveniently located to visit Sossusvlei. If you choose not to cook and therefore book dinner, you will have to drive a few minutes to another accommodation, as the restaurant is not on site.

Perfect location, 5 min away from Namib Knaukluft Park gate to Sesriem Canyon and Sossusvlei. We really enjoyed the pool after a long day of sightseeing. Wifi at the bar. Beautiful!

This place is a gem. We stayed for 3 nights and it was amazing. Highlights include the views, the pool and the friendly staff. The lodge is located right outside the entrance gate to Sossusvlei and Deadvlei. We booked Breakfast and Dinner included and the food was amazing. I highly recommend this lodge.

Desert Quiver
Great space, clean, quiet. Wonderful desert view, wild animals roaming. Not too far from Sossusvlei entrance. We enjoyed our relaxing stay here after all the camping we did over the week. Reasonably price at last minute. Would recommend to other travellers.

Lovely place with very little connectivity
Lovely place very close to the park. We preferred the little huts of the Etosha place (same company), but it had beautiful sunrises and sunsets. The only issue that we had was that the wifi was very weak and only worked at the bar/pool. The second day it didn't work at all. There are no cell towers so our SIM cards did not work here. There is an option to go to the gas station outside of the park and the wifi there (same company so no need for password) is quite good.

Liked: Amenities
Had a good stay at the Desert Quiver. The rooms are basic, (but acceptable), the area surrounding the property is picturesque with the occasional Oryx wandering pass and check-in/checkout was smooth and efficient. This property is very close to the the park entrance for climbing Dune 45 or walking to Deadvlei. There is no restaurant at the property so we took the short drive to their sister lodge just up the road. The buffet was good but very expensive for Namibia, (meals and drinks cost around $50 per person), so make sure you arrive hungry and eat everything. Overall, this lodge is very much as advertised and well priced. Our only small issues were the bar strictly closed at 9.30 each night, the outside cooking/preparation area needs some investment, (tough to be harsh here after two years of covid, so not a big deal) and the outdoor furniture at our room entrance was very uncomfortable, otherwise its a fine choice if you're in the area.

Gem in the Desert
Absolutely loved our stay at this gem in the middle of the desert. Ideally located at the gate to the park of Sossusvlei. Literally 5 minutes drive which is great if you want to split your visit to the park. It was incredibly hot during our stay so we did DeadVlei and the dunes in the morning, skipped the heat of the day at the desert quiver and went back to the canyon in the late afternoon. They have an amazing pool which is just what you need in the heat. However, there are very limited deck chairs and umbrellas. We weren’t affected as it was not busy during our stay but I think if they are full, the pool area would be way too small and over crowded. The rooms are lovely and the beds comfortable. Only complaint it is two single beds pushed together and as a couple its not great having the gap between us. The room is way too large for the aircon to be fully effective, and it can get rather warm in there. The views from your patio are just amazing, and the stars at night are incredible!! The outside kitchen is great but the fridge is very small, so don’t bring too much goods that need to be chilled. They have great braai facilities and really recommend you make use of their meat and salads which you order in the morning and is delivered to your room early evening for you to braai. Great variety, Very affordable and the meat was excellent!!! Overall, highly recommend!! I would only suggest they have comfier seating arrangements on the patio.
