Tucked away between the red dunes, lies Reverie Kalahari Pod. A unique and luxurious experience, exclusively for two. Inspired by the iconic Khoi San tradition of using ostrich eggs for storage, jewellery and sustenance, Reverie offers guests all they need to disconnect from the strain of modern day and connect with each other. The Kalahari Desert forms the setting for a multi-level sensory Sanctuary in complete solitude. Soft whispers, of breezes in the grass fields. Of gentle red sands, dancing along dune crests. Of the birds of the Kalahari offering rhythmic harmonies to drown out the hustle of daily life that has been left behind. Just you and your loved one and your own private universe, feeling closer to Mother Earth. Guests will await an upmarket, fully inclusive, comprehensive experience with all meals and activities included and tailored to their interests and wishes. A plunge pool, overlooking their private waterhole where giraffe and oryx might make an enchanting appearance, is the best scene where evenings can be spent bathing under a million stars under a perfect unpolluted sky. Take a deep breath, your desert sanctuary awaits.

KALAHARI DESERT Colours run riot in the Kalahari Desert where yellow grass and dark green acacias are accentuated against burnt-orange sand and the blue of an infinite sky. And when the sun prepares its farewell for the day, it draws on all the hues of the celestial prism. This is the time between day and dream when magic hovers and the fiery colours of sand dunes brighten and deepen. Life pauses catching its breath. And so does everyone else, standing atop a dune, watching this earthly show in vibrant colour. The magnificent landscape is home to hardy desert-adapted gemsbok, springbok, ostrich, black-backed jackal, the massive kori bustard and the rambling nests of social weavers that have skilfully mastered thermodynamic principles and life in the desert.
