Introducing The Nest @ Sossus
By Birgit Mohrmann, Ultimate Safaris NamibiaUltimate Safaris are delighted to announce the opening of The Nest @ Sossus, the private Villa located on the private Namib Tsaris Conservancy near Sossusvlei. The Nest @ Sossus was designed using the unique structure of a Sociable Weaver nest as inspiration. It took eight years, including a three-year build, to bring this project to fruition and this has resulted in one of Namibia’s most extraordinary private villas in terms of both design and décor. The Nest was designed by Porky Hefer, created by Swen Bachran, and decorated by Maybe Corpaci.
The Nest is situated a mere forty five minutes’ drive from the Sesriem gate giving access to the Sossusvlei dunes and Deadvlei and activities offered include visits to Sossusvlei as well as exclusive nature drives and walks on the Namib Tsaris Conservancy. The latter can include day excursions to the Plateau which towers above the desert and dunes landscape below and offers some of the best views out over the Namib. Ballooning is included on 3 night stays, weather and season permitting.
Guests at The Nest are immersed into the picturesque landscape of the Namib Desert whilst being hosted on an exclusive, all-inclusive basis by discerning and competent management, which is complimented by your private naturalist guide and an award-winning gourmet chef. A private butler helps to ensure that guests are cared for with an absolute focus on high quality service. The Nest @ Sossus it is set to benchmark a new level of hospitality at iconic and exclusive private retreats in Namibia.
