About this property
In the rugged heart of Namibia’s Kaokoland, where towering mountains meet dry riverbeds, desert-adapted elephants roam freely, tracing ancient paths in search of water and food.
Hoanib Elephant Camp, opening in May 2026, offers guests the rare opportunity to witness one of Africa’s most extraordinary adaptations and fully immerse themselves in the world of these resilient animals.
The under-canvas camp is set in one of the most remote and remarkable areas of Namibia’s untamed northwest and has been designed for adventured travellers who seek wild desert immersion and exceptional comfort while treading lightly on the earth.
Each of the 10 spacious rooms has been thoughtfully designed with sustainability and the vast desert landscape in mind. From every corner of camp, expansive desert views and endless skies are constant companions.
Powered entirely by solar energy, the building design includes rammed earth walls and insulated canvas roofs, which offer natural climate control—cool in summer, warm in winter, and always comfortable.
Made for those who seek the road less travelled, this camp is your base for raw desert exploration. Whether tracking the elusive desert-adapted wildlife, engaging with the vibrant Himba tribe, or simply taking in the magnitude of each sunset, here you’ll discover desert escapism and the quiet comfort of understated luxury.
This is an ancient place carved by water and wind, where elephants roam the remote desert valleys, and only a privileged few get to follow.
