Klein-Aus Vista – Desert Horse Inn : Rates, Reviews, Booking Information
The Klein-Aus Vista Desert Horse Inn is situated at the base of the Aus Mountains, where the Namib Desert converges with golden grasses, resembling a refined desert diamond in Namibia. The rich sienna of the land and mansion narrates stories of bronzed wartime pirates and nearly forgotten diamond aspirations.
Situated on a 10-hectare estate inside the Klein-Aus Vista Reserve—2 kilometers west of Aus and 115 kilometers east of the coastal town of Lüderitz—this lodge serves as an ideal base for discovering southwestern Namibia. Embark on excursions to an abandoned diamond mining town; traverse paths through granite mountains; discover artifacts at the Koichab Dune Belt and Camelthorn tree forest; and ensure to visit the southern Namib Naukluft Park to observe the feral horses that have inhabited the region for seven generations.
Fatigued by the plethora of exhilarating activities available, return to Desert Horse Inn to relax on the upper wooden deck, by the lounge fireplace, or at the Wild Horse bar, restaurant, and swimming pool. The accommodation features a charming late-century farmhouse aesthetic, offering a selection of rock bungalows, each equipped with an own veranda; a contemporary guesthouse with a sundowner deck; self-catering cabins suitable for families or backpackers; and campsites with excellent utilities.
