"Located on a private concession bordering Africa's NamibRand Dark Sky Reserve, this sustainable lodge offers some of the darkest skies on Earth, with ten glass-front suites powered by solar energy and stargazing skylights above beds and in the spa. Astronomers host evening sessions at a dedicated observatory with an 11-inch Celestron telescope, while daytime activities include dune hikes, hot-air ballooning, desert drives, and wildlife viewing at a nearby water hole." - Megan Eaves
