Eagles Nest Chalets
About this stay
Rediscover freedom at Klein - Aus Vista with its sweeping vistas of subtle colours where the Pro-Namib merges with desert sands and wild horses roam free. Take time away from rush and routine of everyday life to recharge and to reconnect with the natural world. For a quality experience, treat yourself to a few days at the Eagle's Nest Chalets , built into rounded granite boulders with a rugged granite-gneiss mountain as a backdrop.
These seven carefully crafted chalets offer expansive views of the desert vista that will take your breath away. A seven kilometre drive from the main lodge, the Eagle's Nest chalets are private self-catering retreats, each built individually, combining natural elements and boulders into their interiors in a rustic and luxurious blend. Choose whether to cook in the kitchen, on the fire or to eat in the restaurant of the Desert Horse Inn ; take-away breakfast or barbecue packs are available on request.
On the outskirts of Aus, about 100km east of Lüderitz and the diamond town Kolmanskop, the Eagle's Nest is an attractive base for those who want to explore southwestern Namibia , appreciate boundless space, and a sense of the land and privacy. Several hiking and biking trails run through this desert valley, leading to lookout points. Rediscover your freedom in this desert escape.
