Overall Ratings & Reviews Desert Quiver Camp

There are 3 non-camping places to stay in Sossusvlei, Desert Camp, Desert Quiver and the Sossusvlei Lodge. They are all owned by the same company. All meals are taken at the Sossusvlei Lodge 2-3 kms down the road. There is no internet at Desert Quiver. There is a nice swimming pool but one needs to drive to it. The rooms are very nice, however. Since the dunes are one of the true Wonders of the World, who really cares about where they stay? The experience was a 10 though the Desert Quiver gets a 7.5.

Incredibly beautiful location and really enjoyable stay

Great location right outside park entrance. Nice vibe, friendly staff.

It's a very nice camp, but they didn't advise us that they don't serve breakfast, nor dinner, in the camp: you have to take your car and drive 3 km. to Sossuvlei Lodge for meals... and they didn't put a fridge and not even a coffee machine in the rooms!

Exceptionally clean free standing large cabins. Breakfast and dinner available at sister property 4km up the road. Very good food. Great pool and WiFi at pool / outdoor bar. Reasonably priced so good value!

Awesome location in the desert, near the entrance to Namib-Naukluft national park.

The location and atmosphere were great.

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.

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

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.

Amazing. Good reception and nice view.

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!

Very nice

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.

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.

Beautiful views and five minutes to the park entrance. All basic needs are covered, clean and simple.

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.

Views very good. Swimming pool good. Beer to expensive.

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.
